[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8777437, member: 591582"] I've had 3 boxes that I know of this year that didn't work out well out of the about 180 or so that I've done. 1 of them wasn't confirmed, and I suspect something else happened. The one box I truly messed up on was a JL shallow mount 4th order BP, where the JL had major noise problems, because I wasn't supposed to put it into ported, but I did another box for the customer, and I'm pretty sure he liked that one. This was earlier this year, hard to remember. The other box failure I talked about on here, was a very high powered Skar VFX box, but that isn't really a failure quite on my part, we were experimenting a good bit, trying to nail something down that was kind of hard to nail down, a certain type of sound and overall setup. The owner and I both knew we were playing with fire, so to speak, and we stuck with it, and I wound up doing a huge flared port box with him, after we had deep discussion, and that box is hammering like he wants it to. So, yes, sometimes I do have problems. I had 1 box for sure that didn't perform well that I consider mostly my fault, and a maximum of 3 this year, total, that I know of, that we had to redo. There could be more that I don't know about, and I hope people tell me when their system sounds crappy. I absolutely hate when I make mistakes that cost people money, so I'm always trying to get everyone what they want, as long as it's functionally realistic. Music is very emotional in it's nature, so people can get distressed and angry over a bad sounding box, so I hope anyone that has a bad sounding box will work with me, and we'll work on it until you get the sound you want, and both of us will probably better smarter after we accomplish great sound. I don't get to see any of these vehicles, really, at all. It's all done with customers telling me all of their info, so it's a fundamentally hard job, at least with some people, because not everyone knows enough to describe what they want properly, which is completely fine. I try very hard to make sure I understand what people want, and it's like pulling teeth with some people, haha. [/QUOTE]
