I reached out to a couple of guys in the beginning. There's so little space that it would have to be a fiberglass build. In hindsight I would have broken even paying for the custom built box over the different combos I've tried.

The box itself is fine, it just bumps against the door card, which blocks part of the port. I need to pull the door panel and listen for a difference. My brother has the same truck, same box, only using a Brutal Sounds mini Brute 12. That sounds significantly better at the same wattage. I'm also...

Thanks for the constructive feedback! Hopefully that made your **** day a little better.

I never followed up on this. The Skar sdr 10" sounded horrible. The website recommended 1.65 cubes, the sheet that came with the sub said 1.0 ported was recommended, so I don't know there. I decided to go with a 12", I got the Incriminator I series 12. It's just okay I'd say. The box is so...

I currently have just the factory speakers, which consist of 6x9's in the front door, dash tweeters, and 6.5's in the rear door. I'm using a Pioneer MVH-S600BS head unit. It's a cheapy, but had 4v pre outs and the features I needed. I want to upgrade the speakers and add a 4 channel amp for...

I'll do some reading up on that, thanks for the suggestion! Side note, how much would a guy be looking to spend for a decent speaker upgrade with 4 channel amp? It's all new to me, and much like subs the prices vary greatly. Is there anything around the $150 range for a pair of 6.5's? The front...

I was working with Aaron briefly through email on it. If this Skar doesn't work out I'll definitely try to make the demon work.

I'll admit, I haven't messed around with DSP's in quite some time. I had a couple of old Audio Control EQT's back in the late 90's and I installed them, but didn't really know what I was doing. That's going to be my next venture, replacing the door speakers and such. My head unit is limited with...

That sounds pretty incredible actually. It's probably more useful on something I've built myself though I'd guess. The way this Fox Box is designed I wouldn't be able to get some of the measurements in the box for the parameters, that are there are a lot of angles which throw me off vs. a square...

Not sure what you mean by modelling it?

I am too. After searching on the forum, it seems Skar isn't very well received for a couple of different reasons. I had no idea, and have never had a Skar product before, so we'll see how it goes. The seat bottom has metal on it over where the sub will be so maybe that'll help avoid the sound...

Thanks for the replies all. I ended up choosing the Skar SDR 10", it just matched the box specs perfectly. If that one doesn't work out I'll likely go with the SSA 10 and put boards in the box to drop the internal volume.

I'll be getting my Fox box for the truck here in the next few days. It's a 1.7 cubic foot box, ported to 36hz. You can mount a 10" or 12" in it, the depth available is 6.5", so it limits options. The trouble I'm having is that this is slightly large for a 10", but slightly small for a 12", that...

I wasn't impressed with the response I received from Frank. That, combined with a lack of info I could on them lead me to an American bass xfl 12. I got a good price, and there were nothing but good reviews to be found. I haven't built my box yet, (been laying low after the break in) but...

Thatd do it. Good subs, ran a single 10" off a kicker 350.2, dual 4's in series to mono. Not sure on the exact power it was getting, but it sounded good. The box is key
