Go see Jeff Meece at Meece Car Audio in Lancaster or George Smith with Mobileworks in Santa Maria.

Do not let these guys (or anyone for that matter) try and talk you into a different sub model. The W6 has more accolades and 20+ year proven history than nearly all others on the market combined.

There are varying thoughts on materials, but I am particularly partial to Birch for offering superior sound quality over MDF and 50% weight savings.

Don't forget, you'll still need a dedicated amp for this box and it will carry it's own costs and installation hurdles.
I haven't gotten that far in my research. Any suggestions as to which amps I should be looking at?
