thats if you want to spend an assload of money for a ported box //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
Laugh all you want, mark has more box requests than what he knows to do with. The man is building boxes left and right. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Bose makes a lot of money as well //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

 
Well I want a really loud box. I want to do spl comps. and I dont know how to make a box, so should I go with inhuman or tcab? Are boxes pretty much the same? I just want it to be loud as it can

 
you didnt know that the name changed? it's now tcabR and it stands for "the car audio box ripoff"

Won't be able to do that unless you decide to make it strictly for SPL competitions and tune your box really high around 45hz. Not to mention it will sound like shit. I say buy some plans from some one like Moe Lester (makes very good boxes, I know from experience) tell him you want a ported box tuned around 30hz (to keep the SQ),go to Home Depot buy one or two logs of 3/4 MDF (depending how big your box will be) ask to see if they will cut the wood for you if they will great let them do it. If not find some one that knows how to cut good. And then just make your own box. You will also feel better knowing in the end that your system is loud because of a box YOU made.

only tcab can make the best spl box without actually having your vehicle because they have the "formula" and spkrman knows everything about every vehicle and has tested the type r against every sub and it has been the hands down winner every time. i noticed you don't have type r's. does tcab make boxes that don't involve a type r? then again they are car audio gods and are probably experts with your woofer.

 
With 2 9500's, if you've powering them correctly I don't think you're going to have to worry about them being loud at all.

I've heard countless good things about moe and inhuman's boxes so I wouldn't hesitate to go with them and save a few hundred dollars. Another option is to have one of those two, or jmac, design a box for you (like $10) and then build it yourself.

Your choice, but I say no to a box that costs as much as a high end driver.

You are a real *******.

His "formula" is not some mathematical equation, its a box design/layout. You douche.

If you haven't noticed, he only posts in threads that are talking about stuff he has tested before/cars he's built for before.

God d*mn, i'm sick of all the bullshit around here. If you don't think his boxes are worth the money, build something yourself and put it up head-to-head against his.

And don't come back at me with some bullshit response like "i don't care about SPL" or "its still not worth the money". Just face it, people buy his boxes because they do what they claim. Would i spend the money on one of his boxes? No. You wanna know why? Because i have the time and knowledge to test out boxes for myself. Some people don't have that luxury/skill to test out multiple boxes/drivers to find out what works best. R&D costs money, that money doesn't appear out of thin air. Mark is not just some person who posts online and makes boxes on the side, this is his JOB. He does this for a living, so i don't want to hear any more about why his boxes cost so much. They do what they are supposed to (sometimes more) and costs less than any custom box from a shop around here.

So until you can get your head out of your *** and realize not everyone is as cool as you, STFU.

I dont have a Type R and Mark built me a great box for my MT! so yes he builds boxes for all woofers not just Type R's

 
These comments are reminicent (sp) of the whole power4sound enclosures. Since I'm realizing that the organization has a ALOT to do with the numbers being put up, (db drag > mecca or vise versa if your mecca) Who is using these tcab in other organizations outside of mecca?

Can anyone answer that? Also I've done a search at termpro and have not found anyone running type R's.. Can someone link me to anyone using them? (they seem like solid woofers so I'm just curious)

Me, mark, and josh (custel) were the only people running type-rs at MECA finals. Nobody runs them in dB drag because they are NOT fart woofers. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

On a side note, we three all placed in at least the top three in all the classes we competed in (as3, s1, sr1, m1, mr1, db1).

 
first its type r>all subs

now its tcab> all boxes

Shit when I got on here I heard there was no BEST. But according to a few people I guess that was just flat out wrong //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif
