I think I've seen that setup your talking about with the custom box. It looks like a nice sealed box with kicker logos on the side. I've heard both models of subs your asking about and i would go with kicker definatly. Your SQ will be better considering you would be getting 12's not 10's. As for SPL... If you get the right amp Kicker will beat the hell out of mtx.

opps i just wanted to correct that up there.. when i put SQ i meant SPL and vice versa.

Go with pair of CompVr's. They will be louder than the one MTX and sound a lot better doing it. And you won't need as much wattage to push the Kicker's as it would to push that MTX.

I'd take both the 9500 and the Cerwin Vega V-maxes over Comp VR's. Not knocking the Kickers, but the 9500 has over twice the excursion (25.65 mm Xmax) of a Comp VR AND more surface area, one 9500 will hit harder than two Comp VR's. The V-maxes have a 19mm excursion and will ALSO hit harder than the Comp VR's. The Kickers are 11.5 just for comparison. In my opinion both the Vmaxes and the 9500 will offer better SQ.
