I've already tested this in my car and this why we did it the way we did it.

when the subs face the trunk, instead of the cabin, the bass is reflected off the rear and the bass is a lot louder and deeper.

Recieved my box today, man this thing is built good, I have seen other enclosures in the past but this one is just awesome. You did a great job Steve, also the kit is cool and the instructions are nice and straight foward.

My replacement subs for ED will be here tomorrow (they sent D2's instead of D4's) and then waiting on my carbon fiber, texalium, and kevlar accent pieces that will be going on the front. Hopefully they will be here by the end of the week.

Anyway nice job Steve, this is a quality built box.

Thank ya sir. I aim to please. I could have hooked you up with some kickers though. Post up your install when it's finished

Please is what you did. Like a Chevy fanboy, I am a ED fanboy, the bang for your buck cannot be beat plus they sound awesome. I even have them in my house.

Will definatly post once it is done. Here are some sample carbon/kevlar/texalium pieces that I am putting in it.

On the ******** site there's an option for 2 10's large and small. Whats the difference.

Holis · 09-02-2009, 09:30 AM

Steve does the box have the air space for these speakers?

Large version is same as the dual 12, but cut for 10s. IE 1.1 cu.ft. per sub. Or we can chamber it down for small box subs. IE .8 cu.ft per sub

Yes

Holis · 09-02-2009, 01:05 PM

So this is a normal order to properly tune for JL speakers?

I don't know what you are asking, but those subs WILL work in our box.

Michael_Js · 09-02-2009, 02:23 PM

Steve, any thoughts about a side sub box so it doesn't block the pass-through?

Thanks

Yes. Should have a couple versions ready for sale soon. More details next week

Tecca · 09-02-2009, 05:29 PM

****SIGH**** The guys doing my carbon parts still are not done, hopefully will ship friday. Sucks because I don't want to get it all setup and then have to unhook everything and pull it back out. So another week with no subs.

Just staring at a beautiful box.
