NIce box.. Don't use heavy subs though

I really liked this box a lot. It took a little time to figure out how to wedge it into my 2000 Mustang trunk but I got it to work... I dropped a 12" Fi BTL into it.... ugh.. the sub weighs more then the box weighs. The sub freaking pounds in this box. No port noise so that's nice. But I do have 1 problem... the sub pounded its way out of the box!!! Ha. I would recommend this box for a sub that don't weigh so much.

Perfect

I got this box and installed my system 8.4.08 and it is amazing, I put an Audiobahn aw1200q in it and it pound hard. I strongly suggest this box if its specifications fits your sub.

Big Bass

i bought this box and put a power Acoustic 12'700rms 1400 watt woofer powered by a Legacy 3000watt mono block amp and man does this thing pound. Clearly you get your bang for your buck. I give this box a 10 top of the scale

Perfect Box

I have one of these in my car with a pioneer 3500 watt sub that just blew, so now I'm going to throw two of these into my trunk with two 3500 watt Pioneers powered by the 2000 watt v power mono amp by Alpine. I know that one of these in that box powered by that amp is as loud if not louder as some two sub setups, so I can't imagine what two of these is going to sound like. This is a must have box!

This box slaps!!!

Just dropped a DC Level 3 into this box and it is hitting hard!! The sub isnt even broken in yet and its making my ears ring. Great box for the price. If your lookin for a one sub box with great efficiency, buy IT!

Alright Box

I liked the price of the box, and it was alright, not bad but not great either. I didn't like the way the box couldn't hit low notes. Granted it is a prefab box but after reading the other reviews I expected more.

good buy

I bought this box for a hcca 12 sub. The box works great I had to modify it just a little to get it to fit but it was worth it. Great box especially for the price.

BOOM BOOM!!!

THIS BOX HITS SO INCREDIBLY LOUD. I HAVE A ORION HCCA-12 INCH WOOFER AND I'M PUSHING 2000+ WATTS AND THE BOX IS STILL IN GOOD SHAPE, THIS BOX CAN TAKE SERIOUS POWER, AND YOU CAN BARELY HEAR ANY PORT NOISE.

WOW

OMG, this box roars...You can feel the reverb just by singing in to it w/ no woofer inside. Once you DO drop the woofer down into it, this box just opens up and yells...The bassiest box ever!!!

I will never go sealed again...

Wow. Bought a brand new 12" Kicker CVX and put it in a sealed box at 650 RMS. It was okay but not even close to what I was looking for. Returned it and bought this box and hollllllllllyyyy..... People complain about how it doesn't hit supper low notes but wow this thing slapps now!!! Best 45 dollars I've spent in a while. Highly recommended.

GREAT box

this box is great, i think i wont ever get any other box for my hifonics olympic 2412, the box makes that one sub sound like i have multiple subs in my trunk, the only down fall is the trunk space i have after the box is in my trunk.

SICK BOX

I tried to put an American Bass XFL in this box. I had to sand the hole to make it fit, and after I did... wow. This box makes that driver go crazy.
Do yourself a favor and invert the ports on this box. It drops the bass down real low. Very well built. GREAT BOX THANKS AGAIN SONIC!!!!!!!!!!!

Great box

This Box is a great box. It really hits the low bass notes with my Orion Hcca 12.2. The only thing is after about 4 months of use with my JL 1000/1v2 and my hcca the walls started coming apart, only because my setup is extremely powerful and has 4 inches of xmax.....that's a lot of air being moved....nothing a few screws and caulking cant fix. but other than that...great box for an amazing price

Large, efficient enclosure

This box clearly struck me as well-built from the get-go. The two ports are exactly 4" in diameter in between the flanges. The only major drawback I've found is that the ports are simply not quite long enough for this enclosure to tune to below about 50hz for most subs. I've loaded mine with the MA audio MA121XQ 12" sub and the tuning frequency is exactly 56 hertz (with the sub's large rubber cosmetic cup removed from the basket to increase air space). Even so, I still get 2 to 4db more spl (equivalent of about twice the "power") at a thunderous 34hz than this same sub in a 1.25 cubit ft sealed enclosure. If efficiency is your goal and you dont plan on needing enough space for an additional sub, this will give you about as high efficiency as you can get from a ported enclosure. BTW, the ports are very well flared and there is almost NO port noise!
