The REAL 4080 subwoofer enclosure back...

It's been a while since I've posted. I am the originator of the 4080 subwoofer enclosures (www.4080enclosures.com). I am sure you have seen similar enclosures on the forums that claim "4080 style", im flattered I started 4080 enclosures in 2004 and i ended production in December of 2004 due to conflicts with my business partner. I have since found a new partner to start up production of new and improved enclosures. But first I need some help from my fellow members.

I need a two donor cars to build and test fit our new mouldes. I will need a G37 coupe, G35 coupe and G37 sedan. I will need each vehicle for two days. We are based in Houston Texas so local vehicles are a must. The owners will receive one free enclosure. Please PM to set up an appointment.

It's great to be back!

Hmmm, this is very interesting. I thought 4080 wasn't going to be selling these enclosures anymore:

Thanks for bringing this to my attention, Bing.

My name is Nick Johnson and I should set the record straight. My bio will be on our new website, but in summary: I started as a DIY installer on my dad’s farm truck when I was 13 and became the “go to DIY guy” in town for my buddies. I joined the Iowa Army National Guard in 1993, went to college and followed my passion by taking a part time job in car audio sales that led to an installation position. With my Enlisted Time Served in the IANG, I took an honorable discharge in 1999 and moved to Houston to get into the custom side of installation and the rest is history with awards along the way and my focus always being pushing my limits, striving for perfection, and putting great sound on the street.

My company, Science of Sound, was started in 2003 and the enclosure side of the business is known as BOXOLOGY. The designs of all enclosures are the intellectual property of my own company. They are all of my own creation and labor along with the molds, jigs, templates, tools, all the way down to the dust on the floors of the buildings that I also own hehe. The money to start the design and production was from my own life savings and earnings as the business progressed.

I haven’t left town, gone cuckoo for cocoa puffs, and definitely have not stopped production (quite the opposite, actually). My decision to part ways with the marketing company mentioned (4080) was based on what is in the best interest of my company due to a meeting that left me uneasy followed the very next day with an odd order that I liken to asking a cop for his gun. I assure you all that this decision will ultimately be the best for the end user. We have many new things to come (including a G37 Sedan enclosure ) and it all starts with our updated website that will be up and running shortly.

If anyone has any emails in reference to me in a negative manner, please feel free to forward them to my email at mysosinc@gmail.com

CandlestickPark, send me a copy of your invoice to mysosinc@gmail.com and I will get a grill out to you at no charge. The sedan 12 enclosure is 1.05 cu ft. net minus driver displacement of .071 cu ft. bringing the actual airspace, after driver displacement, to .979 cu ft. Sorry, I don’t plan on making a matching driver’s side enclosure for the sedan.

Thank you to all that are enjoying our product in your G’s and for all of the compliments on the design over the years. We plan on becoming a vendor on this forum when our site is finished and are looking forward to getting involved with the community here. Hopefully this will end all questions or concerns about what is coming in the future.

Thanks for your time (looong post!), guys (and gals?)! Bing, I guess we will just have to look up to each other, then… great installations as usual, B!

OP and Boxology were in business together, but aren't any longer. Boxology claimed to own the Intellectual Property of the enclosures and is selling them under a different name now. This seems to be true given that 4080 is looking for cars to test fit their "new" enclosures.

Yeah 4080 still sells under 4080 and Boxology's business name is Boxology, a division of Science of Sound (http://www.mysosinc.com/boxology_index.html)
