[QUOTE="JonM, post: 8540283, member: 671903"] Thanks for the replies guys. So it looks like I'm getting burnt here. I tried another place and they wanted $1800 including 4 smaller car batteries before I bought the XS batteries. Another shop refused to do it because I wasn't buying the equipment from them. The box is made of birch wood. As far as deadener, they said after the install, they find the vibrations and rattles and add deadener as needed. I'm not sure if it's included in the price, I'll have to ask. They explained since there's a lot of power here I'll need to run 0 gauge wire. I assumed they needed 2 amp kits because I'm running 2 amps for the subs. Thank you for explaining the differences in loudness between an suv and a trunk system in terms of loudness. I wasn't aware of that. For the mids and highs I'm running fosgate P2 T2652-S components in the front and fosgate P1 6x9s T1663 in the rear powered by an APCL 2004 audiopipe 4 channel amp. My head unit is a kenwood DDX67025 double din touch screen which I think runs 4-5 volt pre-outs. [/QUOTE]
