too much going on, dude.

I see a alot of problems here

1, you will not properly fit 2 w7's in the trunk of a rsx. Jl's like big boxes, and the hatch area isn't enough for 2 subs, amps, and batts.

2, running 2k+, you will need to upgrade your electrical system, which will include batteries, and a ho alternator.

3, i see no mention of sound deadening.

What made you come up with these products? did you just go to a website, and pick the highest priced items?

come back with a realistic budget and goal.

That's unnecessary..

If you want loud, look into 1 better 12, 2 10's, instead of 2 average spl 12's.

Before you purchase anything, you should prep.

Contact these guys and get a quote for a 250-300 amp alternator https://www.dcpowerinc.com/

After that, Sound deaden your doors, and all of the hatch area http://www.sounddeadenershowdown.com/cgi-bin/index.cgi

After that, get 2-3 batteries

i personally recommend xs power.

http://4xspower.com/products/

Put the biggest d- series batt you can fit under the hood and get 2 d1200's for the rear

After all that is done, you can start to purchase stuff

Op, if your building a serious system and what to do this and your budget allows then go for it. Your going to need a alternator, extra battery, If your tight on space you can go sealed. The 12 needs 1.375 cf so you can custom build something nice to fit. Ported would be great. But there goes alot of space. Have you seen mtx rsx?

horns are not always ideal, either you love them or hate them, there is no grey area

well, either that or pro audio.

When someone wants a 1500w-2000w sub stage, a pair of comps just isn't enough
