For those of you who may have noticed, I have been posting here looking for your insight & wisdom and I thank you deeply for all your comments. Here is yet one more question.
I am looking for a sub box for my '09 Z06. I want to minimize the amount of space used up in the rear compartment. I like the design of the JL Stealthbox. I see that MadVette has one too, but several people have posted that it takes him quite some time to ship things.
So what other vendors offer a box similar to what I am looking for?
Some have already told me that the JL is OK, but there are better. I assume they are saying this due to the speaker JL puts in the StealthBox, so I was thinking the box is a good box, and I would just replace the speaker with a JL 10W6 or 10w7 or Alpine SWX-1043D. Thoughts...

You won't be able to fit a W6 or W7 in the stealthbox, the mounting depth is too much. Mounting depth has to be less than 6 inches for whatever sub you choose, otherwise you won't be able to store the hardtop.

Hmm, not good. Will have to consider other options for sure.
because you have a z u dont need to worry about thetop fitting so the box can be deeper. I had to get a shallow fosgate 10" but wanted my top to fit. A W7 wont fit in my settup but a little deeper/taller might work. Even one W7 will really thump hard in a vette
Sure will. I have a whole system update plus sound deadening I am going to be doing to the vette. So I'll do a write up of the process and post it. The only thing is that I won't be able to do the stereo upgrade till after March. Some of the Alpine equipment I want was just introduced and CES2010 and won't be out till then. :-(
Just to follow up, I ordered from 4080enclosures. I talked to Ainslie for some time and felt like he has a good product.
I have had that box for about 2 years and am very happy with the construction as well as the looks.
Make sure you have a good seal between your sub and the box, or it will sound boomy.
I made a gasket from 1/8" ensolite.
