Build A Box Or Buy One?


Recommended Posts

is it cheaper to build your box or to buy a pre fab one?

That's why they don't deliver.

Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait.

You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start :D

I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.

you are posting in the SPL section, so I assume you want good numbers on a meter. if that is the case building a box is the way to go. cheaper if you have the tools, and much better sound all the way around

My System:

Pioneer AVH-P3200BT

4-Dayton 7 inch reference series (front doors)

8-Onkyo 3/4 inch tweeters (dash)

1-Sundown Audio 100.4D (mids/highs)

2-18" BTL's (for now)

Crescendo 3kwp (for sale)

Complete rebuild coming soon...

Plus if you build it yourself, you can make it look how you want, preform how you want, and you can custom fit it how you want. Pretty much everthing is how YOU want it to be and you won't be stuck with something that you don't 100% like and can't change.

Custom 1977 Chevy Nova Show Car:

(1) Kenwood KDC-MP638U Head Unit

(10) Sony 3" in the dash

(2) Rockford Fosgate P3 12" P3D412

(1) Rockford Fosgate P1000.1bd @ 1ohm

(1) Rockford Fosgate PEQ Bass Remote

(1) Rockford Fosgate 1 Farad Digital Capacitor RFC1D

All Rockford Fosgate 4AWG Power/Ground wire

Under construction:

(2) Rockford Fosgate P162C 6.0" 2-Way Full-Range Speakers up front

(2) Rockford Fosgate P1694C 6"x9" 4-Way Full-Range Speakers in the back

EVERYTHING hidden to maintain authentic look

Another upside is you get it to fit your vehicle, you shape it how you want, you put your own fabic, vinyl, paint, etc on it that you want, and like mentioned before you will really get the results your looking for on a TL.

Plus you got bragging rights to all your friends who have pre-fab boxes, "yea, i built my own box!"

Pretty soon ppl are asking you to build them a box. =D
