3 JL10W6's

This has probably been beaten to death. Anyone built an enclosure that worked for these. I'm curious to see pics. I almost think I can get away with a plain rectangle that doesn't need to have a funky bottom on it. It would sit in the back of the trunk and come up to just under where the hatch closes. Any thoughts. They will be ran with a rockford 800.2. Thanks.

I have them in a plain rectangle. No dividers with the coils and speakers wired parrallel. That will drop the ohm load to 1.
Now if you wire them with the coils in series and the speakers parrallel it will be @ 4ohm mono.

dual 8" W3s in a banpass enclosure(takes up the whole trunk )powered by a JL 500/1 rms amp (coils in series,speakers in paralel,4ohms) sounds beatiful,I already had the box,the only reason I used JL is because they were recomended too get the most out of that box.
