did it work for her?

It'll hold great when you get into a fender bender too. And who cares if it diminishes your sub system's ability to tranfer low frequency material to the chassis like its suppose to, installation was slightly easier. Great idea I say!

Bolt that bish down man.

You do not see how bolting the box rigid to the chassis would be an improvement in vibration transfer over simply sitting the box in place and hoping two little tiny velcro straps keep it from sliding around while cornering? You WANT your speakers to transfer vibrations to your chassis. Mounting them together rigid is the best way to accomplish this goal.
Not to mention the safety factor involved...

He's not diminishing it.. He's just not utilizing the full potential.

Velcrow can defy physics?

not even industrial can... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif to OP

Incorrect. The velco will in fact help to isolate the box from the chassis, diminishing vibration transfer. Spend big bucks on a subwoofer system to hit the really low lows, then hurt its performance in the lowest octaves because its easier to not bolt it down? No thanks.
Hell Ive had sub boxes just sitting in place before too. But I didn't run to the boards to say it was a great idea...

we'll all sit back and wait til you roll your vette, then ask how that velcro did.

Not trying to get worked up, just trying to get you to start thinking about your safety in case of an accident. Its a bigger issue than speaker performance or vibration transfer.

roll a vette and the last thing id be worried about is the box //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

It wouldn't take a roll over. A box that's not bolted down can turn a simple fender-bender into a fatality. Its not that uncommon actually.
