Fiberglass subwoofer enclosures are finally here!

After a long delay, we are ready to start taking orders on fiberglass enclosures. These are built solid as a rock out of thick fiberglass by hand here in the USA. Nope, this isn't some Chinese crap. This is quality American craftsmanship, with great attention to detail, precision routing, and pride in workmanship.

Specifications:
Internal Volume: ~0.7 cubic feet
Maximum mounting depth: 6-3/4"
Subwoofer diameter: 8"-12"

NOTE: THIS DOES NOT FIT IN THE CRUZE DIESEL.

Each enclosure can be routed to the specifications of your subwoofer's cutout diameter.

Enclosures come in two finishes; either carpeted to match the trunk of your Cruze as shown in this 10" enclosure:
,

Or painted as shown in this 12" enclosure:



Pricing:
Carpeted: $225 + $30 shipping
Painted: $375 + $30 shipping

How do I place an order?
Send me a private message with the following information:
1. Subwoofer you intend to use
2. Carpeted or painted
3. E-mail address and phone number
4. Mailing address

Disclaimer:
Be advised, not all subwoofers sound good in 0.7 cubic feet of internal space regardless of what the manufacturers may claim. I'd be more than happy to model any subwoofer you'd like in this airspace to give you an idea of whether or not it will sound good free of charge. I can also recommend specific subwoofers if you don't already have one in mind. If you want to buy an enclosure with a sub already loaded, we can get brands like Rockford Fosgate, Kicker, Pioneer and others at wholesale prices. Just let me know and I can give you some options.

Refer to the first post in the following thread for any available deals on subwoofers:

Please note that pricing can change at any time.

Andrei... that looks very nice.

Can i ask what kind of 12' SQ subs would fit the enclosure in terms of mounting depth and sounding good... ID, TC, Morel etc.?

Thanks
Hari
Looks like IDQ would be the good and cheap solution, especially with the V2.

I saw the IDQ V2 specs with just one sub the output would be much lower than what i have now... is there any other SQ subs in market above 500 RMS which would work in that space or something like 2 enclosure left and right would be a option?

The IDQ10's which i have now is awesome but i miss the trunk space and with the family expanding i might jump on this soon.

Andrei... thanks for the parameters... i pretty much get the idea of how sub works in terms of power output & enclosure size.

Just looking to see if there is any other sq subs in market with more power which is worth the time and money for the upgrade.
The IDMax10 is the only SPL sub I know of that would be remotely suitable for this enclosure. I'll see what I can come up with though.

Andrei... To fit IDMax does the cu.ft increases or still at .7?

just found out it will work from .6. (http://www.pimpmysound.com/downloads/idmax10v3d2.pdf)

Thanks

The manufacturer says it will work in as little as 0.6 cubic feet but I personally would go as close to 0.9 as possible. I have that manual stored on my computer. The volume will remain at 0.7 cubic feet but it might go up a bit due to the larger mounting depth. Fiberglass fill will be added to make the box "sound" larger. You'll be happy with it.

Sounds good... Just wanted to make sure it will be more musical and not boomy.
