Default F/S Subthump Stealth 1 10" Box

I have for sale a Subthump stealth single 10" sub box. I bought the box around this past November and just took it out today. It is black without the Corvette letters. The reason for selling is that I put in a Subthump stealth 12" box.

Here are some pictures of the Subthump Stealth 12" box and also the cover that I made out of some thin gauge aluminum floorplate. It takes a little bit for the images to load up. The sub I am using is an Image Dynamics IDQ 12D2 V.2 and this thing really sounds good. This is the first time I have used this brand of sub, but it won't be the last. If you are looking for a sub, check Image Dynamics out, you will be glad you did. I crossed mine over at 80Hz and it rocks. The next thing I am going to do is build a cover that will conceal the amp up to the heat sinks for a completely stealth look.

Don't that aluminum plate ratle ?

I'm going to install the same box in a very similar set up

The factory cover muffled the sound to much, like trying to scream with you hand over your mouth. The aluminum panel doesn't rattle at all. You can play it without the cover and then put it back on and there is no difference in sound. It is very thin aluminum, I had some left over when I made a rock guard for a trailer. It is not very heavy but plenty strong enough not to have to worry about luggage or my golf clubs getting through to the sub.

If you had a CD changer or the bolts that hold the CD changer are still in the back wall, you have to cut them off as flush as you can get to the wall. Also I cut the grey carpet off where the small kick up is. I am talking about the drop off area after the sloped section in the Vette floor that is toward the front of the car. The Subthump box fits really tight, so you need to give it all the room on the drop down section that you can. I used Dynamat Extreme also and I had to pull it back up on that small little kickup in the floor to get it to push down all the way. The fit is really tight but this also keeps it from sliding around and making noise.

ahhhh thats how you got it down further, i dont know if i want to cut my carpet. Great idea though. If i get the balls to cut that carpet, then that'll give my sub enough clearance to not bang against the cover.

I didn't really want to cut it either but it is completely hidden anyway and I wanted the box down as far as it would go so I figured why not and did it.

I took out the complete carpet and it still does not go all the way down.
