Default WTB sub box for rear cargo area

Looking for a stealth type sub box. I'd prefer to run an 8 in one of the smaller side compartments but if I found a deal I'd consider running a 10 in the main compartment. I live in Atlanta and could drive to pick it up. Ship if necessary. Let me know what you have. Oh, and the carpeting must be black.

Hey Narco,

I got this one for my car:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/CHEVY-CORVETTE-97-04-C5-Z06-SINGLE-12-SUB-BOX-ROCKFORD-PRIME-R1S412-PACKAGE-NEW-/310902998832?pt=US_Speaker_Sub_Enclosures&hash=item4863434730
It was delivered very quickly, and was well packaged.

I ordered the Rockford sub because of their reputation, and many good reviews of this specific speaker. The enclosure seems to be well made, and fits right in place. I haven't yet installed mine, so no personal experience with how it will sound....but if the reviews are true, how can you go wrong with a 12" sub powered by an 800W single channel amp?

IHTH,
KoreaJon

Will-do.

I'm getting close to installing my system. I have a custom box for both amps. The box fits in the cargo area, immediately behing the hump, and fits between the rear speakers. It's covered in black carpet, houses the two amps, (one 800W for the SW, and one 750W for the component speakers.) and has two thermostatically controlled cooling fans, and separate compartments for the two 6 1/2" rear speakers.

I'm really looking fwd to getting the stereo system installed, but have been stymied by the US Postal Service....everything from the sound barrier, the heat barrier, hell, even the wire connectors has to be ordered and waited, and waited, and waited upon....

I'll give a full report (hopefully) soon!


Regards,
KoreaJon

I love those. I've decided a single 10 in the center will be my sub option

I am needing to order two boxes and I get the 46.00 discount only once when I select two boxes (add 275.00) option. If I add the boxes separately to get the discount on both boxes then the shipping doubles. I am ready to order these if I can get the shipping and discount lined out.
