Please tell me your sub is not mounted as shown in the picture.
On top and exposed.

Ok, if that is the set up "As shown" peeps will use the port as a garbage receptical, and your sub as an ash tray / drink holder.

With a box that size, man you could have had a sweet isobaric set up with a little plexi glass for show. Maybe even thrown in some LEDs to boot.

This is the one I use. Sounds good, but I would put a ten unless you have a 12 that dosent need to much airspace, and he will match the color.

Imagine the ashes bouncing around in the speaker while it's vibrating...

Haha, that's exactly what I thought when Pappy_FB said people would use it as an ash tray!!! Oh and by the way clubin11, I know a bunch of people who have had their systems stolen even though they had tint and an alarm. The reason is.......EVERYONE CAN SEE THE SYSTEM. All the kids I know that haven't had their system stolen has it hidden. If I were you, I would have done the hot box idea that Red Ram Hemi 2005 pointed out.

I am sorry to knock your design. I am abosultely sure you put a great amount of work into it. By the looks you really built the box professionally but the design or speaker placement was the only thing most people were knocking. If this design works for you then eff everyone else.
