Box Build For Me by Vitveet

[slim2fattycake 10+ year member]

See, I am not the only one that thought the port ratio was extremely low. I'd rather have a good box and be out twice what you paid then get a shitty box and have to pay for another. I don't know the builder's rep but that's not good quality from the pictures.

He actually has great rep and thats why I went to him. I looked at a ton of his build logs and they all looked good.

What do you think about it? I have done three carpet boxes, I usually paint, and seams are kinda hard to get invisible unless you do the recessed trick. It makes carpeting easy as shit.

The seam is on the bottom like Vitveet said so its not an issue. My issues are the lack of sanding which may or may not hurt, the painted port piece which may or may not stick, and the port ratio. All which require me to mount the subs up and wire and tune and test some more to figure out if the box is what I need.

Even with the rabbet technique, there will still be ONE seam to find. The overlap and cut way leaves a shitload of seams to find, like on this box's sides, I see tons.

At least the price was low, especially shipped.

If he can't handle criticism or use it to improve, then that's his bad.

I have to get pics of the subs in the box, but it sounds great, it looks awesome in the trunk. Its just as loud in output as my DC Level 4 15" and has better SQ. Absolutely no port noise what so ever.

Vitveet made two of mine, both were just as I asked for.

You must not have been giving the DC enough power, because it has double the cone area as those ID8's.

Ah, another happy customer!!! What can I say!!!?!?!?

"Seams" as if there's ALWAYS someone to say something negative! Constructive criticism is great but some of you aren't giving that at all, lol! "Seams" as if a few peeps here are trying to get more business for themselves!! Anyhow, I won't entertain them any longer....I've got to get up in 5 hours to work on more enclosures....got 6 in line to complete in the next few days!

Also, lol at the guys who "try" to be all technical and won't go off of real world results (which DEF matter the most)! And, lol at the guys who've only built "a few" or "75" enclosures...I'm probably around 750 (and probably underestimating that honestly)! 99.5% satisfaction rate ain't bad either....!

Oh, maybe I should get a better camera so the "seams" won't be an eyesore on the internet (b/c they def aren't in person) and so my camera doesn't make it "seam" like the edges are rough/uneven/etc!!!

Thanks for all the positive comments (and neg. ones)! Thanks for previous customers chiming in also! You all always get "repeat customer discounts"!!!

Oh yeah, sorry I'm late to your thread Whitedragon551! Hope you're enjoying it!

And no, I'll never me "mad" at anyone talking over an internet forum! That's childish!!!

Thanks!

not gonna lie viveet, ur boxs dont look the best but neither do mine because i build for performance as u said u do. so it can look "decent" and sound amazing and i would be happy rather than seamless screwless piece of crap that looks awesome!!!! lol good job v
