This nullified my suggestion of banging on the box. I doubt a pro will miss a loose panel.

That *****. The box builder should build a new one and drive it to you if it was his mistake. I had to drive a box 2 hours one time when i did the cut outs for the subs too large. You could try to screw it tight and see if it stops.

Shop said it was the box and was not bottoming out or being overpowered,

Yea I’d almost rather it be the subs tho drove 3-4 hrs to get this box and I doubt there’s anything I will be able to do about it

There is a fix. Remove subs, identify loose panel, drive a nail as a wedge, squeeze wood glue in the gap, remove nail, apply weight, caulk after 2 hours, use next day. I have done this a few times, always worked.

He said to try putting a screw near the top where the port wall is but didn’t say anything about taking it out like why you are saying

My suggestion is for if you do not want the screws to show. But if cosmetics is not an issue, I would definitely use screws. Just predrill with an 1/8" bit 3/8" from the edge. 1-5/8" drywall screws are great for this.

The box unfortunately wasn’t from the shop so I don’t know if they could do anything besides tuning

Too much power.. if it hits hard at low volume gain on amp is too high. It doesn’t match with the head unit anymore. Put everything on head unit to off or 0 or flat. Bass, treble 0. Bass boost off. Eq flat. Amp set bass boost off/0. Lpf 80hz. Hpf/subsonic 26hz. Gain if no tools put it back where installer had it. (Your clip light will sometimes go off when your volume is set at max. Ask installer what the max is.)

It doesn’t do that anyone that’s as because they had the SW level set at -20 and that what they meant to do so when I changed it 20 clicks down it was hitting way to hard of course but joe it’s set on zero and play’s normally

I really like the Star Head Black Deck screws. You can get them up to like 3.50" maybe even longer. But They go in really easy and and some Badd Azzes. A little more expensive , but worth the $.. 10 xs better tan Drywall or wood screws
