get one built for around 300 or so
also wat amp are u gonna run

not the greatest amp.. it's a PA BAMF5500

i just didn't have enough money to get a hifonics.. but i'm looking to upgrade it in the future

if u build the box itll only be around 50 bucks......

just the supplies for a box that size will probably cost 100$. you'll have to do it yourself for that probably.

i'm gonna get everything installed at my buddy's shop.. his dad claims to know how to install sound systems

or i'm gona have it installed at best buy

is that a bad place to have the setup done? anyone tried em?

that amp isn't actually that bad. decent starter amp.

best buy will do an ok install on decks and amps usually. you'll need your box to be built by someone else. the box is the most important part of the sub stage, so don't compromise too much.

i think if u tell bestbuy what to build they can do it but im not for sure. but they are harsh on stuff because when i took my HU after they installed it pieces inside of the dash were broken and sum screws were missing

they did alright on my moms van. not much of a challenge though to put a head unit in a chevy van, so it wasn't an accurate test i guess.

what you think?

those boxes might be ok as far as tuning, but they are far too small and poorly constructed. no bracing. i would stay away.

oh ya.. thats cool.. i'll be searching around for other boxes then.. and i'll post in here if i find something good

or if someone can please post a site where i can buy a decent box.. that'd be perfect //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

i would have a single L7 in a box that size, and 50 sq. inches of port.

 

[king ranch 5,000+ posts]

that box is only around 5.4 before any displ after displacement u will only have around 4.5 or so which is just enough room for one sub

 

[Notloud00 10+ year member]

what car do you have? for two 15's you need around 8 cubes and 120 or so inches of port. tuned LOW. l7s love being in big boxes tuned retarded low.

 

[azimuth 5,000+ posts]

i think you should go with a single L7 and with the extra money saved, spend it on a box. you'll be much happier. that L7 will get very loud. even 1.
