What are people's thoughts on this - I'm basically in the process of putting some bass in my boot and was wondering whether to go for two smaller bass tubes or one (maybe two) box enclosures.

Also what speakers do people recommend? I've got a kenwood HU and will be replacing the car speakers with kenwoods as well.

OK so it looks like a box is the way to go - are there pre-made boxes in the right size I could go for or do you reckon it's just best making my own? Is one big one better than two smaller ones?

Yes. The bigger the space, the deeper (and 'boomier') the sound - just think about the different sounds whales and sparrows make. :D

tube is better for saving space but not much boom boom sound
also it's a removable sub and amplified too
