I think fox box is out of business. I would do it the old fashion way. Get some graph paper, take measurements, go to home depot and get a sheet of 3/4" MDF ($40 a sheet), liquid nails, some screws, and go for it. Cheaper and it makes you feel sooo much better when you can say "Yep, I made that asn it sounds awsome" plus you know it is quality made. Just be sure you have an alarm first, I learned that the hard way.

^^^ I had a Probox and sold it for a Foxbox and it is WAY better. Only issue with the FB really isnt an issue with the box itself but rather the maker; Joe.

You might think Foxbox is out of business, but thats because Joe Fox doesnt like to communicate at all. Get pissed enough and he'll bite back with a nasty comment or two, but good luck getting anything besides aggitated, annoyed, inconvenienced comments from him. The company is still somehow still puttin out quite a few boxes though

resize your picture. the reason you cant hear the 2 in the back is because of the cheap ebay box. THAT is the difference between a quality box and regular box.

its only 1 chamber for 2 subs? Yeah thats enough to kill it right there. Defniitely make it sealed chambers for each sub, and make sure the walls are at least 5/8" thick MDF sealed with glue, screws, and caulk.
