I'm using two channels bridged on a Alpine PDX 4.100. I was a little worried that 200W RMS wouldn't be enough, but it's way more than needed. Volume and sound quality are just right for me

wait so you baught the ones that go into the sides of our trunk yet you installed it beneath the seat?? Thats cool but im not sure how good it sounds as apposed to two 8's in an enclosed space, since that what really makes it bump. But damn 199 for both of the housing? How much did it run you for a good sub for each? ANd how was the instal process?

Yeah, I ended up paying quite a bit more than initially quoted but in all fairness I think I missed out on that first run. It does come with a very nice matched driver so I think it's still a pretty darn good deal for a custom job. Way better than I could have done myself, that's for sure.

you know that that box is intended to go under the factory carpet, out of site.
the price is $400 plus shipping, i did have a original price of $350 but because i had to change to the memphis speaker, it cost more, i did offer this at $300 for the first 5 people (last year), prepay in order for me to have the capital to build the mold and get a good initial order for the speakers, i never had anyone step up.
I sell this on ebay for $450 plus shipping, i also can get you any other equiptment you need.

Thank you to every one, i am glad you like this setup, pass the word.

To be honest man its an AWESOME great idea especially because theres no god damn space in our car but as far as sound quality goes for the subwoofer, i dont think you get nearly as much bump as having it in an enclosed space (the trunk for instance) And dont get me wrong its freakin
awesome i would love to get it but i dont have funds like that so i would rather get those sidemount boxes for 199 posted earlier

But please dont get me wrong, 2big4as2000 this is truly fantastic and was planning to get it at as well.
