Sub ideas

[Onebeachbum05]

While trying to find how I want my sub installed I ran across something different. Great idea but more than I want to get into.
View it for what it's worth.

Looks like he's fiberglassing the back of the box in? At least it looks like that might be what he's doing?

Are there any more pics?

Basically he sealed off the bottom and fiberglassed it. To get the volume you can measure by using plastic bags and a calculated amount of sand. I was given a quick explanation but I have never worked with fiberglass beyond a simple surf board repair so the details got lost in translation.

The guy that did this runs a custom audio shop out of Woodland Hills, CA called Sounds Good Audio and I got this off his web page.

I bought my amps and speakers here and totally recomend the place if your in the area and are looking for more than just the basic installation.

Hmm, do you know how much something like this cost?

I have no idea on the cost but you can call them directly. The phone number is on the web page.
After chasing down as many options that were findable on the web, I decided the best sounding, least time consuming instal and most out of the way for storage approch is to use the JL Audio Stalthbox.
Afterall, the box is supose to be tuned for the 4runner in the first place.
I found a better use of time was to insolate the car via Dynomat and carpet. That alone will make an average sub sound better.

Good luck.
