Right I understand, He asked how much bass he will loose. And after sub displacement, if the box is less than 1 cu ft it will sound horrible, but if the guy he is buying it from is good and knows what kind of sub is going in it, im sure he will make the necessary adjustments.

Nope, box was done by a friend of mine. It is a lot more intricate than it looks. Ported and sized to the exact specs of my sub, tuned to 35 hz.
I'd never be able to get my money back out of it if I tried to sell it. It'* going to get moved over into the new car eventually unless by some miracle the SSEi gets fixed.

Is your box ported into the trunk with the sub firing forward? How does that sound? It seems like your trunk is pretty well sealed off with all those panels so I'm curious if you lose output because of that.

It'* ported on the left side right behind the battery. The box is completely sealed off from the trunk. Makes for no trunk rattle and sounds great. I've never had anyone complain about it being too quiet : P

makes sense, if i lose too much i'll just go back to the HO box, and here goes $400.00 down the drain... but i doubt i'd do that, all i need is a little bass for ME inside the car, i dont care for people outside. not to mention im only 22 and im hoping to keep my ears for atleast another 50 years lol
correct, little base is all i want, reason i bought what i have now is because i got the 10w7 with the JL GMAX, the box and the wiring kit
