Two things:
1. 300 dollars is ****ing nuts for an enclosure. It had better come with a free sack of Colombian grade cocaine that I can sell.

2. 150 decibels..people say that they want loud, but not many realize just how loud that is. You wouldn't listen to 150 dbs daily anyway (unless that is what you like to do), so why get more than what you want?

yeah i dont even know what 150 dbs is.. thats sad... i dont even know what my brahma put out..... no one near me has a meter

that would be fun to be able to compare our cars to comp cars and how all their stuff is put together in comparison.... i just wanna know HOW it works

Me personally I would never pay 300 for a box, mainly because that is half the fun in Car Audio, building your own enclosures. There is nothing like staying up all night keeping the neighbors up with a table saw and a router. but I cant deny marks boxes are loud....but does that mean that you cannot build a box just as loud, no. If you have a well laid out plan, and good skills with tools, you yourself can make a box for around 50 bucks that will get just as loud.

does anyone know if he will offer plans for a certain price that might be a bit more reasonable?

If you get a plain (uncarpeted, painted, etc.) box without aeroports i'm sure he could do something for a bit cheaper.

Send him an email and find out.

you'd be surprised how easy 142 dB's is nowadays, even with a stock electrical system.

Efficient box+good subs+good amp=nice scores.

You also have to remember that these are MECA style numbers (in the kick)

i know what 150db's sound like

i know one of my se12's in my bandpass box got metered 2day and did a 139.4 at the kick on a tl mic with music with 600watts going to it

and when i get my other se12 up and running i should be in the low to mid 140's

and i havent tuned anything yet:up2somet:
