[QUOTE="IDSkoT, post: 5518845, member: 584344"] This. Pre-fab boxes aren't really built as per sub's needs. I.E. You have a 1.5 CuFt box, and your sub calls for a 1 CuFt or something. A custom box helps your driver perform at it's peak. The problem with pre-fabs is the lack of care. I mean, I personally haven't inspected one, but, I'd assume they don't use enough glue, silicone, or put adequate pressure on the joints as they're drying. And I'm not sure if they use 3/4" MDF or not. I mean, pre-fab box companies are quantity over quality, where as most box builders on this forum and others care what their boxes look like, and how they perform. [/QUOTE]
