just a wee bit of advice,
box looks good.. but you really should have screws in it.... a bunch of them, the vibrations of the sub will indeed break the glue bond, and i dont think it'll take too long esp with a sealed box

just a warning

there is screws and nails in it. along with glue and silicone. yea i kinda figured it might blow it apart with it being sealed. there are ports in it, but probably not enough. but thanks for the advice!

where could i find something like that? all i did was put 2 3.5'' holes on the side of the box under the cb. i did that after i started using it and it sounds 10 times better than it did.

Ok so hows the 10 sound in a RC? Im gonna do audio (at some point...) and im thinking a 10 would be best. What do you listen to and how many watts is it getting?

i listen to pretty much everything, hip hop, rap, country, classic rock, alt. rock. and it sounds awesome. it still have the stock door and rear speecks in there, so when i get around to upgrading those it will sound so much better and im only using a 300 watt amp.

awesome! I can tell you from experiance that the rear speakers dont do much. Unplug them or change the balance/fade and try it out before you remove them

Im going to get a 3 channel amp and just do fronts and a 10", just wanted to get your input since you have a RC too
