all those prefabs that say they are tuned to a certaing frequency are going to change when you put different drivers in it...its best to have one built for you.......what kind of vehicle is this going in?

well, I'm on lake MI, but I'm still like 6 hours or so north of you way up about two hours north of grand rapids.

I'd need the car for a day to do a decent fitted box.

Remember that subwoofers aren't just plug and play. The box you build for it will have an effect on its frequency response. So yes, money invested in a custom box specifically for your sub will be money well invested.

IMO a custom made box suited to fit that subwoofer is optimal... the differences you will see are basically some sq, and spl differences, as well as sealing... Most Q-logic boxes do not have problems with Seals, and the R/T's probably do. Also they use Partical board not MDf with R/T... Personally i like OBCON boxes but they are usually tuned above 40hz so your subs would bottom out... i think that the Q-logic is not a bad box for the money IMO. But still a custom made box would be better.

And no i dont know what that box is tuned to the R/T that is.

do you know what that 2nd one is tuned to? and would getting a custom box make it sound incredibly better or would a cheap one like that 2nd box be alright? I want the box to be as cheap as possible but I will spend more money if the cheap ones arent going to sound good

This one is tuned to 34 hz so maybe you would be interested in this?
