I've looked around on EBAY and have found a couple of boxes that would be perfect except they are too wide. I drive a Grand Cherokee and the spare tire is in the back. Therfore, I only have somewhere around 32 1/2" inches of width in the back. Every box I want is either 34 or 36 inches wide. Basically, I need something that is a little less wide and a little more deep. As a last resort I'll probably just get two 12" singles and put them on their back with the woofers pointing up. The width would only be about 15" for each single if I layed them out this way. This is a real pain in the a$$. I wish Jeep would have just put the stupid tire underneath the back. Oh well. Basically, I'm just looking for any websites or places that might have some good deals on a large selection of sub enclosures. I've thought about building it myself, but I'm pretty sure I'd screw it up somewhere or it would take me forever to do it. I'm really slow and percise, which would mean it would take me forever. Granted, it would probably turn out pretty good, but I don't want to spend half a week on it. The ideal box would be a dual 12" that is less than 32" wide (or less), ported, and is tuned to 32 hz. I'm throwing in some Kappa Perfects. |
