Default New system thoughts??

Ok guys, I am desperately working on the boss (wife) on allowing me to once again add a system into another truck I have a 2012 F150 XLT SCREW with a terrible factory stereo IMO. Im am looking at getting...

2 JL Audio 10w3v3 subs
I will be making a custom sealed box to fit under back seat
2 JL Audio C2-650 mids for all 4 doors
Phoenix Gold SD1300.5 amp
Jl Audio CleanSweep OR AudioControl LCQ1???? Not sure yet...

I am also getting Alpine M780 7" headrest package, with a VST dvd player that I will mount in the center console...

Any thoughts on all of this?? Good or bad?? Advice??

I have installed 3 fairly large systems in my life, however it has been about 4 years since my last build I have not sketched up the design for my box yet, so any input/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys

Is there a difference between the CleanSweep and the AudioControl?

the headrest id probably go with Vizualogic rather then the alpine screens. vizualogic gives u new headrest with screens already in them http://vizualogic.com/
everything else sounds good

I need box dimensions! I have a single JL 10W3V3 and every shop around here has said there's no way without major modifications!

I'll take them this weekend. Here are a few pics. My guy got the depth off a little and offered to redo it, but a few 1x4's cut down worked perfect. It may have worked before, but I wanted a little more Clarence. You can see where the box goes up into the one seat. The seats are pitched slightly, but I've sat in the back and don't mind.

I need a system for my truck to..I have no clue where to start with the subwoofers or the amps because the only ones i have had before were 15s and i know they wont work..also im not so sure about how to plug in the amp with the stock stereo ( i have the one without the sony upgrade) so bascially i need to know... What subs are good for the supercrew 2012 f150 fx4. Should i get two 10s, two 12s, or four 10s or four 12s? What kind or subs should i get? What kind or amp? All that stuff i have no clue what to pick. I have heard that Sundown Audion 8s are good and the yalso make a 10 inc hsub to but i need someone to give me other ideas to compare with... Thanks!
