Hey guys Ive been searching around for subs for the longest time and i got a great deal on my 2 10" Type R's that a friend of mine was selling but the only problem is the box barely fits in my trunk..I was wondering if this ebay box was any good and would provide enough breathing room for them soo they don't pop?? if anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated and now for the pics..

My subs: sorry for the crappy sidekick camera quality
The box would only fit in my trunk if it was on its back..

 

2 type r? thats gonna sound like ...ugh.. way too much juice unless u run it real low and then u wont get the full kick and only a water down thump. gonna sound like a civic.

 

Yeah i was thinking i should sell one of them but do you think that box is good cuz you could order only one side for like half the price???

 

The boxes look good to me from a glance. Nice install and such. However, if I were you I'd be sure to get a sealed box. They're cheaper, sound better with the limited volume of the box you have, and aren't as 'boomy' so you won't sound like some punk who's trying to wake the neighborhood. They'll also give you a nice tight bass response which is good if you're looking for quality sound (which it seems like you are) not just being loud.

 

any other opinions on what i should do???

4080 box FTMFW!!! See if you can get a 4080 box maybe even 2, off someone in the classifieds. They'll take up the least amount of space, and are engineered pretty well in terms of dimensions. The big wood box that looks like it might have just been slapped together might negatively impact the sound due to improper air space in the box. +1 for Type Rs though, my boy has a 12 in his 330i and that thing knocks. Hope this helps!

 

Beebo beat me to it by like 30 seconds!! but still 4080 FTW!!

 

so they dont pop? wtf? iv never heard of subs popping due to boxes..

 

Box volume and shape, not to mention being ported/sealed/bandpass has a LOT to do with how it sounds in the end.

 

Yeah idk my boy that owns a shop told me that if the box is too small for the sub when the sub hits it can cause the sub to pop...and one 4080 is more than what i paid for both subs and a 2000watt amp hahah

 

Your boy that you know owns a shop and he can't even hook you up?

 

that is SOME BS, i had 2 12' kickers in a box that my friend made of some fiberboard, real cheap build... those things were 800 watts rms 1200 peak.. they never "popped" so ur boy needs to chill on the sound system expertise lol

 

Your system probably sounded like complete ****..and he could hook me up but not extremely cuz he still has a business to run and he has to make money to..

 

it sounded like complete ****? how do u know that? dont get all butt hurt, not my fault ur friend thinks the subs will "pop"
