I got mine from ebay and it's for a 12" sub. Fitment is great and good quality too. The only bad side is the weight of the box and sub. Mine is about 35lbs.

I got the ebay enclosure and it sounds great. as for durability i totaled my 03 s2000 about a month ago and the box didnt get messed up at all. I actually just swapped it into my 05.

YO, seriously, guys...unless you're running a very small 12", that enclosure off Ebay (the MDF one) has approx .70 cu ft interior space. That's INCREDIBLY small for a 12". Let me put it in perspective. I have a 12" that was designed from the ground up - every single aspect - for a small, sealed enclosure. It requires 1.09 cu ft before subwoofer displacement.

So unless you're planning on running a 12" that requires less than probably 300W (and never going to push more), you'll need a larger enclosure (hence the fiberglass enclosures).


It's not just as simple as finding a box that fits into the car that you can mount your woofer in. It's about finding the right size enclosure.

Fair enough, I suppose. I'd still recommend going with the fiberglass enclosure...
