Default need more "testicle smashing oontz"

okay right now I have a JL stealthbox with some sorta sony explod POS sub in it that I haven't been able to blow with a 500/1 JL amp. Its decent but just doesn't have enuf oontz for my needs. I have two mint condition kicker solobaric 12's sitting in the garage and I remember those in 10's back in the day (I had 2 10 solobarics and they blew away the 3 jl 10w6's I replaced them with) seriously kickin some butt so figured wtf I'd try em. Does anyone have a prefabbed box with a TIGHT enclosure for a 12 (like .8 cu ft) I cuold care less about stealth, flush works better in my Z06 and I plan on simply thru bolting it with fender washers into the car so it doesn't travel on its own. If not does anyone have dimensions for a box that would give me proper .8-88 cu ft volume? seems most of the pre fabbed I've found through searches are a lil on teh big side.

If i could throw a bigger 10 into this stealthbox I'd go for it but the biggest JL says will fit is a 10w3v2 or somethin lame that barely needs 250 to crank......I wanna actually let the amp work, and possibly warm up a lil bit if I feel energetic

talk to marv at mr marv's place. (google it, think its a .tv address). He built my box for my IDQ 12" stealth style with .5" birch and it works great, fits great. Tell him I sent you over he will take care of you. He has been an audio nut and carpenter by trade forever.

Kale - I have a buddy with both a CNC embroidery machine as well as a brand new digital image print machine for custom work on clothing, seats, etc. What kind of market do you think you got here? Got that trademark registered yet? Might be a goldmine

Here is what I made up on AutoCAD. 3/4" MDF used for the box, 1/2 MDF used for the top. Let me know if this helps.

in addition to the box, you may want to consider a bass restoration processor. I'm using the Epic 150 model with great success.
