Default Bought Ebay tool Well Sub box

Well I just ordered my sub box, and the seller agreed to do a recessed mount for free.

I'll post pictures of the box when I get it.

I'll be putting a Infinity Perfect 10.1

here's the one I got, I thought it had the best overall design.

EDIT. I received the box last night and I have to say, I"M VERY IMPRESSED.

Build quality is 9/10
carpet is 10/10
seal is 8/10 (some leaking but nothing a coat of fiberglass resin won't fix)
Mounting depth 7/10 (I got recessed mounting and ended up with 6" total)

top of the box flush with the top of the trunk deck.

Here are the pictures. I have not mounted the sub permantly as my sub is a bit long for the box with recessed mount.

I Highly recommend this seller unless you have a really tall sub.

I bought one a while back and it works great. I didn't ask for a recessed one but it sinks in about an inch anyway.

Doh...I just wrote a long post and navigated away with actually posting it.

Devil: Put your 10" up for sale and pick up a Stereo Integrity Mag.

The mag has a 5.5" mounting depth, 1cu ft enclosure requirement (polyfill will give you what you need there) so it's perfect for your enclosure (just have to do a bit of routing to enlarge the opening).

The Mag handles 500-1000W RMS. I run 500W to mine and it's enough to move my hair...

Trust me, it's the best sub you'll ever hear. I love the single Mag in my S so much, I ordered 2 for my truck - and am working on having a custom enclosure made to fit them...

$250 shipped. Can't beat it.

Hmm, mine hasn't sunk at all. You must have a heavy woofer! Sounds just right with a 10W3v3 fed by 300 Watts. I agree the overall quality is just absurdly good for that price!

I may have to look in the the SI mag. that's a pretty hefty price tag though. oh well.. tax return here I come.
My Arc Audio can do ~320 RMS bridge though. but should be enough.

infinity perfect has 6.5" depth.. which is pretty deep for a 10" sub.

no. being it recessed lowers the mount depth by 3/4" I had to get a 1/2" ring to get it mounted without bottoming out.


10.1 requires 6.5" depth.
