He's been through this with me, but basically, the box has a slight annoyance issue when kicking down into a gear which I forget (2nd I think), regardless of mode of the box.
However, after a bit of reading, it is potentially a pretty (relatively speaking) cheap, if fiddly, fix.

But if they're in phase and the 6x9s move on the downstroke, the sub would do the same thing, pushing air out of the vents into the bootspace, against the 6x9s. Or am i confusing myself because i haven't allowed for the airspace being "made" by the cone on the sub moving backwards?
Eitherway, nobody else will be heartbroken if the 6x9s die
Already got the bits required to change the ATF which should do it by all accounts. I am fairly sure its 3rd but it hasn't done it in absolutely ages.
A simple install is best tbh, a decent set of comps up front, amped, and a semi decent sub, and your there imo, HU are much of muchness imo, all the top marques are pretty good now, pioneer,JVC,Alpine,Kenwood etc

Wow some really good bargains there, i never seem to be able to find anything that cheap on the bay.
As theres some car audio boffins in here how would something like this compare to an amp/box/sub?

Neck Uv Da Woods is a good track to give your sub a workout.

Those all in one kits tend to be pretty poor from what i've heard. You'd be better off with a £80 amp and £50 sub in a sealed box. Get a wiring kit for £10 you're all set. 
This set is probably worth a look to be honest (check out some reviews first, but in my experience JBL stuff is good for the money)

£25, from one of the guys the wife works with.
only because i broke the one i paid £80 for though
i thought this was only a problem on big systems.
ive got a sub and 6x9s and aint had any problems, the parcel shelf does bounce a bit when its turned up. the only thing that has broke is one of my door speakers which has come loose and makes farty noises when its loud now.

good work!
I did a ghetto ice install on my £300 Rover 620 turbo as well!
Had an old (pretty crappy, but had pre-outs) sony headunit. Matched it to a bargain Fli Loaded AMp and a FLi12" passive sub. All in cost me ~£30, and whilst not sounding as good as my avic setup from the celica, it sounds fine for the money!

Cheap, but not my sort of cheap.
Phoenix Gold XS 12" Sub for a fiver,
Maystar QXA250 amp for a tenner.
I've never been a believer of buying I.C.E new, you can get much better, well looked after s/h kit for similar prices if you do some homework.
