Hey guys, i'm about to get a new system reletively soon and i'm trying to find some subwoofer boxes that don't kill all my trunk space. I've looked at the MTX Thunderforms http://www.cardomain.com/item/MTXCF10T45 but $300 seems very excessive and one i don't think one sub will cut it.

So i was wondering if anyone knows of some good, small form factor subwoofer boxes or better yet, some subwoofers that function well with small box areas.

Thanks a lot!

Subthump (http://www.subthump.com) has a huge variety of choices including passenger and driver side stealth boxes, which hide away like the MTX, but have a much higher build quality. Amplifier not included.

I have a 10" drivers side stealth, with a Alpine Type R in it taking a bit under 400 watts. It's more than enough for me -I think most people are suprised at how hard it hits.

Thanks for the linkage; that milhouse box is exactly what i want http://www.subthump.com/images/camaro/milhouse/t-topmilhouse.jpg :D

Price is a little bewildering, but i can most likely make my own here.

i will don't worry, but slight change of plans. I believe i'll be going with one sub (hopefully temporarily) in one of these boxes http://www.subthump.com/acamarostealth.htm powered by a mono amp.

I'll let you know what i decide.

Does anybody have any of these?

I'm thinking about getting one of these, but I don't want it if I can't move it to put stuff in the trunk.

You can move them, but it's not easy...

The stealth enclosures are very nice and can make sound good if matched with the right sub.

If you are looking for a sub that likes small enclosures that performs completely awe-inspiring (But will NOT fit into and off-the-shelf stealth box) check out the Adire Brahmas, Resonant Engineering XXX, and Elemental Designs A-Series. All are designed to perform in smaller enclosure but still be crystal clear and loud enough to cause permenant damage to your hearing.

Alright guys i think i've come up with the system i want.

I'll be using this amp: http://www.cardomain.com/item/BOSRT850

With this sub: http://www.cardomain.com/item/KIC03CVR102

Mounted in the above subthump box i mentioned. Does anyone have any experience with this hardware?

The Kicker is decent, but Boss is a little too no-named (bottom of the barrel stuff); you can find better for the price. Look on ebay for a Mono JBL amp; right now those are one of the best subwoofer amps out there for the price.

Decisions decisions. Well I'm almost back to square one. However i have been looking at this for quite some time: http://www.cardomain.com/item/MTXRT10X3A

I know the subs are no where near competition, but the price has me wondering. Does anyone have a scoop on this setup or the subs themselves? If I bought it could i replace the stockers later? Or would i be better off going with this http://www.cardomain.com/item/MTXRT12X2A ?

Keep in mind this would be my first system, and i'm looking for something relatively inexpensive.

Has anyone seen or bought the http://www.subthump.com/acamarottop.htm T-Top box? I am trying to find something is going to look good while also allowing me to store my tops. My only concern is that I want to still be able to store things in the back and yet still have nice bass. Tall order but just wanted to know what people have honestly used and liked or disliked. So far the T-Top, milhouse and the stealth enclosures are my final picks but I guess I just need one 4th gen owner to delcare how much they love their box :)

I'm using dual SubThump Stealthboxes in my setup and couldn't be happier with the sound. Click my sig if you'd like to see the install.

I ran a Deep Well enclosure for 3 years with good results.

The only reason I "upgraded" was becuse I'm upgrading my subs, and want my t-top storage back. My new subs won't work in a Millhouse enclosure nor a Stealth; and I don't want the pit full again, so it was custom time for me. 3 gallons of fiberglass, 10 yards of Knytex Fabric and a sheet of MDF and all is good.

Alright guys i just bought my system, and i have a huge problem. How do i wire this thing?

By which i mean, where is the wiring harness that goes to the radio, both the route from the battery under the hood and through the firewall? Those V6s are so much easier to wire. :rolleyes:

I was just informed this box was crap, does anyone care to explain why? I'm not angry, but for $76, does anyone have a better alternative?
