[QUOTE="Jtyson, post: 8680405, member: 664314"] Honestly I don't have anything to compare the Fox box to, so I can't say one way or another how it sounds. It is okay. It doesn't satiate my need for bass, but I don't know that without going extreme like you mentioned that I could. But I drive my truck for work. A LOT. I have put on almost 40k miles in the last 8 months. So the whole setup was meant to be a balance. Still be able to use the truck for everything it was designed for (mostly, as I do miss the fold flat floor in the back), and be able to enjoy my music more. I tried reaching out to a couple box builders and designers and it went nowhere for various reasons. Cost, lack of a truck on hand to use for reference, distance from me, etc. Not sure if you're asking for my opinions on the subs, or just referencing what I've said already. I'd be glad to ramble on some more about both if you'd like. On the overall options...initially when I finished getting everything in a few months ago, I wished I hadn't bothered. Spent too much money for too little output. But, I will say, even when not performing optimally, it blows the factory sub out of the water and makes me a lot happier. More than anything, I wish I would have bought a mega cab so I could have done something much better behind the seats. I do wish that I hadn't spent the money on the F8Ls. Not because they aren't good subs, but because they aren't enough better for me to say the $400 was worth it over the Skars that I already had. Now if I were buying one or the other for my exact setup, knowing what I know now, I'd probably go straight to the F8L based purely on sound quality. [/QUOTE]
