[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8619045, member: 614752"] The NVX is pretty close to bottom of the gutter Chinese cookie cutter fare. Your first instinct was probably right there. Unless doing this for absolute bottom dollar is your top priority, don't take his advice on what equipment to buy. You will get low quality, dubious reliability, and zero resale value. In general you'd probably be well served by putting less cone area in a proper sized box than trying to cram too much in a too-small box. Figure out PRECISELY how much space and depth you have to work with and plan around that. The reputable mainstream lines all make shallow mount woofers, out of which I'd say JL has a couple fantastic offerings if you don't mind the price tag. JBL, Pioneer, Rockford, Alpine, and a few others also have shallow mount stuff that should be all pretty comparable quality and price points. There's also the Illusion Audio shallow mount lineup that's even more money if you have deep pockets. [/QUOTE]
