    Why do you want a pack, just get all the items separately. Also buying subs from America is very very expensive due to the size of the box and the weight of the sub.

    How much would you be looking at spending?

    In my opinion, no great sub ever came in it's own pre-fabricated enclosure.

    Why? Because people who buy decent gear, want to get the very most out of it. No factory tuned enclosure is ever going to offer that. Just have a look at some of the enclosure spec's as listed by some manafactuers. Going by some of those spec's, you would expect to get a very dismall sounding sub to say the least.

    EDIT - Wait, you don't have a car, what are you going to do with a sub?

    Cant help all that much without a budget mate - we could suggest something for $150 that would be rubbish or also suggest something for $1500 that could be too expsensive.

    If you don't really know much about subs, amps ect, then i suggest doing some research. Learn about them, and decide based on the infomation you have gathered, what type of sub would be best suited to your needs. No point in us making reccomendations if you have no idea what any of it means when you view the links.

    If rap/hip hop is your style, then i'd suggest going with a ported enlcosure. Sealed enlcosure's ofcourse can still sound great, but with that genre i would always lean towards ported.

    In saying that though, there aren't many off the shelf ported enlcosures available that will get the most out of a sub. If you have some wood working skills, we could come up with a suitable enlcosure design for you.

    Otherwise you may be better of buying a pre-fab sealed enclosure, and doing a few small mods which may bring about some gains.

    Right-o sweet, my dad would be able to do the woodwork shit, would i need to change the speakers like honestly, if i bought a decent headset, and then a sub + amp, would that do?
    Are the subs/amps off ebay that are sold from power sellers shitty?

    If your referring to the Ebay brands like Powervox and the like, then yes they are shitty, very shitty. They do have their uses though, like paperweight, or I hear they can be used as fire-starters when you go camping, or driving.
