Extended Cab Subwoofer Box

[thohill]

I have a 12" sub in a great big ported box sitting on my backseat. I'm tired of it being in the way all the time, so I want to grab an under-the-seat box to put the sub in. After searching around for a while I came up with these three options:

So my question is: Which looks best? Anyone ever tired any of these? Would it be worth it to get a dual sub box and move the jack? Where should I put the jack if I move it?

I think i would rather stick with the single sub. These boxes seem simple enough, anyone have plans for building one?

Do you plan on using the sub you have? What is the mounting depth. This could easily narrow down your selection of boxes.

I like the first one. I have mine sitting on my seat it's fine there nobody sits back there but the one your going to get looks super.

Just ordered the box from hifisoundconnection. Will take pics of install.

^^^ Nice! I'm eager to see how that fits/performs.

Thanks for your post. I just ordered the one from hifisoundconnection. I haven't seen one that fit that well under the back seat.

I have heard that the leading edge of this one sticks out slightly beyond the front of the seat, just to give the sub more cubic feet to work with, which is understandable. As far as I'm concerned thats a small price to pay for having a downfiring subwoofer. Forward firing subs are just too prone to damage from cargo and passengers.

Definitely post some pics and let us know how it sounds. I've got an MTX proform 10 box that I've had for many years. I wore 1 sub out in it so I tried to find as close of a replacement as I could. Never has sounded the same. I'd like to find something that can handle a little more and has less distortion.

Heres two pictures I snapped real quick. Doesnt stick out at all, the fit is really clean and nice. I like it.

Will give a sound report after I hook it all up tonight.

Nice! Looks like it fits really good. I may have to go this route. You can get one of these loaded with a Kicker sub for about $120 shipped.
