Re: 07 Z06 Corvette Box

Eh, I don't pick the subs, I just design and build the enclosure's.

BUT, I did try to steer him towards another brand when the subs he wanted to use wouldn't fit with the dimensions of the enclosure he didn't want the design to exceed.

Re: 07 Z06 Corvette Box

Nah, I'm not a certified contractor in the slightest bit.

I'm a cabinet maker, been doing it for 30+ yrs, involves alot of custom work for what the customer wants and building sub boxes is a different form of custom cabinetry with technical applications in a functioning environment.

Part of the challenge is making the design work given what ya got to work with and then building it.

Re: 07 Z06 Corvette Box

Customer used a product that he bought to fit the area, here's a pic of it:

He used some craft paper, laid the that box in top of it and traced the outline, cut it, folded it up and mailed it to me. I took the trace, laid it out a piece 1/4" MDF and traced that outline, and I got a perfect fit for enclosure and just extend the depth more for volume.

I'm going to take build pic's for sure.
