mtx Thunderform is plastic =(
I want a wood box but...the biggest i can find is like .69 QFT I need like a 1.5ish for my JL's
ehhhh Thunderform is well..., I actually saw the box flexing when the bass hit. Gave off a very hollow resonating bass rather then a tight punch sound.

I've been looking at the mopar sub and that price tag keeps pushing me away. Can you please post pics of the box for the 12? I would probably put a pioneer shallow mount in there. thanks!

it is a complete kit that you can use with you stock radio.
Going a cheaper route will still cost just as much by the time you buy the amplifier, enclosure, wiring, RCA converter..etc...

Ehhh thats kinda pricey to me and the power rating seem on the low side??
I have nailed my options down.
I am going with this box

This Sub

I already have a pioneer 800 watt 2ohm stable mono amp. The airspace will be about .10 shy, but im going to pollyfill the box to compensate for the difference.
So ill be running 1 10' sub at 800 max 400rms on a 800 watt amp at 2ohms
in a sealed box. It should really hit.
$80 (box)
$82 (sub)
$20 (lineoutconverter)
$40 (amp wire kit)
$10 (pollyfill)
total = $235
Seems like a better investment. More power and better product at less cost.
thoughts? comments?

That box is pretty sick looking
I like how slim it is. Is there anyway to track down the airspace for me?
It just seems like it would choke anything over 150rms 400max being that slim

Silverbullet - Does the sub hang down from there? might just be the picture, but it doesn't look like there is enough room to mount one inside there and have it facing down. Different looking box than anything I've seen so far, I like the idea and am interested. Would like more information. Do you happen to have a pic with a sub installed by any chance? THANKS!
