Gold Member Username: Alias747MN Post Number: 1251 Registered: Apr-05 | NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! He just scammed a bunch of people. It was all over all the other car audio forums. I thought I read about it on here too... I can't remember. |
Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 4035 Registered: Feb-05 | Please fill me in on this. He built me two boxes last year and they both were nice. |

New member Username: BumpncarstereoPost Number: 1 Registered: Sep-06 | I believe you may be mistaken Isaac W. I have never heard of one specific time where Phil has ever done anything to mar his reputation as a straight forward stand up business man. The reason I feel you maybe mistaken is that other car audio enclosure builders (namely TCAB) has recently come under fire for less than honorable business practices. So Isaac W. I am not calling you a liar, I just would like to see proof about these allegations. Phil is a great guy and I find it very hard to believe that he would do anything to ruin his reputation in a day in age where information flows freely as it does. Dan |
New member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 1 Registered: Sep-06 | Isaac, Do you have rock hard concrete evidence of the allegations for which you are making? Also, I find it rather convenient on your part that you make such claims that I supposedily scammed " bunch of people " and " It was all over all the other car audio forums. " and then you can't remember where any of them are posted. |
New member Username: RenegadesrunPost Number: 1 Registered: Oct-04 | I would love be diplomatic about this but alas...i cannot. Phil is one of THE most stand up box building business man i have seen on the net....period. This includes both his business practices, ethics, and quality of build. IMHO the reply should be deleted outright, but since he seems to believe he is correct, should be given the chance to put up, or STFU, and do so in a timely fashion. The proof, or lack thereof, will serve its purpose. To show the world that A: Not only is the reply without merit but that Phil is one of the best builders you can find. AND B: Isaac suffers from a r3ctal/cranial inversion. You have the wrong man son. |

New member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 2 Registered: Sep-06 | Paul, It's not violent anger, just pain anger. Since Isaac posted my alleged " scamming ", he has not seem fit to reply to the claims made. I am waiting for evidence or proof there of along with others and he has posted to the forum since then with no response to his earlier post. While he not posting nothing in the eye's of some is proof of no evidence to the allegations he presented does not mean I feel the same since he's the one directly attacking me and my business. |
New member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 3 Registered: Sep-06 | Still waiting Isaac. |
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Google is your Friend, FL Post Number: 5886 Registered: Aug-05 | he was probably thinking about TCAB, simple mistake. i have never heard anything negative towards your company phil. |
New member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 4 Registered: Sep-06 | Muddy, I do appreciate what you have said, though the sentiment may not come across in a manner of expression in the words conveyed. If Isaac made a mistake, then he should owe up to it and simply state as such. Posting the comment as such is just leaving it hang out there for others to read and make judgements as such with no basis in actual facts to support the claim made in the first place. If I made such claims about a person or business, they would want to know the basis of claims being made and if an error was made, I would be man enough to admit it. All I am asking for is the same. |
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 1702 Registered: Feb-06 | hate to get off topic, but emailed you phil for a price quote for a box. |
New member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 5 Registered: Sep-06 | ctmike, Was your e-mail for a alpine type r 12" subwoofer ported. If so, I got it and will get back to you later this day. I'm in the process of finishing up design drafts and details for some HT speaker tower cabinets for a customer quote. |

Silver Member Username: UdaiPost Number: 188 Registered: Dec-04 | Sorry for bringing this back from the dead, but Phil.. is there an email I can reach you at? I wanted a quote on a box similar to the JL Prowedge for a 12w6v2. |
Bronze Member Username: Thed42Post Number: 17 Registered: Jun-06 | Isaac, You piece of sh1t. Own up to it. Mistakes are made, it would be alot better if you said a simple apology. This ain't no huge company, so a mans rep with his company is all he has got. I am always sticking up for the little man. F big Businesses |
Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 4046 Registered: Feb-05 | I just ordered two enclosures for 2 of my subs from phil and im a repeat customer. I will continue to support him because he has proven to do great work on my enclosures. |
Silver Member Username: UdaiPost Number: 190 Registered: Dec-04 | What size were your boxes.. how much did you pay? To keep it confidential can you please PM me. |
New member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 9 Registered: Sep-06 | Hold on fella's: Read https://www.ecoustics.com/electronics/forum/car-audio/269149.html |
New member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 10 Registered: Sep-06 | Mo, Is this another enclosure in addition to the other's you ordered?? You got my e-mail address. |
Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 4047 Registered: Feb-05 | Nope, just the 2 i recently placed in order for. So far Phil has built me boxes for the following : JL 12w6v2 ported box / 1.5 @ 32hz Ascendant Audio Avalanche 15 / 2.25 net sealed Soon to be : JL 10w6v2 ported box / 1.00 @ 34hz JL 12w3v3 ported box / 1.75 @ 30hz I cant wait to hear them. p.s. What type of nails do you recommend for mounting the subwoofer in the enclosure phil ? |
Bronze Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 11 Registered: Sep-06 | Mo, I would use #8 1" - 1 1/4 Panhead Screw. Also, pre-drill the hole to the size of the screw shaft, less risk of MDF blowout. Also, if the drill your using has a torque clutch, use a setting of 3 to first drive in the screw, it won't tighten the screw's tight, then set at a higher setting of 5 or 6 and then tighten the screws again. By driving in the screws in this manner using the torque clutch, the screws will be tight without running the risk of striping the screws in the MDF. |
Silver Member Username: LoudonPost Number: 571 Registered: Jun-04 | hey phil ... whats ur email .. i wanted a quote on a box for the fi q 18 .. lemme know ... or email me at binny816@yahoo.com 5.0 cuft tuned to 28hz |
Bronze Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 12 Registered: Sep-06 | Mike, I'll shoot ya an e-mail later today. Also, what the he!! is a fi q 18??? I know it's got to be a subwoofer, so I need the name - model - spec's. Also need the wattage amount you intend to put to it so I can design the enclosure properly. |
Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 4048 Registered: Feb-05 | Is 1 or 1 1/4 the size of the screw shaft ? |
Silver Member Username: UdaiPost Number: 192 Registered: Dec-04 | Phil, i never got that addy. What email can i reach you at.. i was wondering if you can make a box similar to the JL prowedge for the 12w6v2. |
Bronze Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 13 Registered: Sep-06 | Mo, The shaft size of the screw is not the lenght. The shaft or shank as it is referred to by woodworkers is the diameter of the screw at it's center lenght. So, for a # 8 screw, you would pre-drill the hole using a 1/8" drill bit. |
Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 4050 Registered: Feb-05 | Phil, how far down do i want to predrill the holes ? |
Bronze Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 14 Registered: Sep-06 | Little mo, I can fabricate an enclosure similar to it, but not to JL exact spec's. I don't copy copyrighted design's unless I get permission from the company or person to do so. I'm sure someone somewhere wouldn't give a sh!t about buiding you a copy of it, but, I'm not like everyone else. |
Gold Member Username: Alias747MN Post Number: 1323 Registered: Apr-05 | I totally forgot about this thread Phil my bad. I already talked to you about this on the other thread that you made with my name on it. I told you it was an honest mistake and that it was. I think that muddy was right, it probably was TCAB. Although I could have sworn that one guy was talking about you. I saw the thread you posted about how people were waiting for there boxes from you for a long time. Maybe the thread I originally saw was them venting about having to wait so long. Again sorry. Plus like I said before that was when I had just recently e-mailed you for a quote and you didn't have time to get back to me, so it seemed like it all added up. I hope we are all good now! I probably would have got my box built by you if you had gotten back to me, but Marshall White helped me out. Maybe in the future when I get a new setup you can make me a nice quality box. |
Gold Member Username: RedlinerWilmington, Ma Post Number: 2505 Registered: Jun-05 | hey phil just a question around how much are your boxes just estimates like a sealed ported just basic stuff |
Gold Member Username: RedlinerWilmington, Ma Post Number: 2509 Registered: Jun-05 | bump since it didnt bump for me |
Bronze Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 15 Registered: Sep-06 | Charlie, I don't have anything like concrete set costs for enclosure's because each enclosure is different in terms of what the customer wants. However, for example, say you wanted a JL 10w7 ported enclosure to JL enclosure spec's: 1.5 cu. ft. Net @ 35 hz Enclosure size - 23.25" w x 13.5" h x 14.5" Slot Port - 1.5" x 12" x 22.5" 1" MDF Baffle Carpet - Charcoal Grey or Black Terminal Cup w/ Spring Posts - Gold Plated Cost $ 135.00 + Shipping |
Bronze Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 16 Registered: Sep-06 | Big Mo, Just drill the hole thru the baffle. |
Gold Member Username: RzarectorCoquitlam, Bc Canada Post Number: 1311 Registered: Dec-04 | how fast can you bang off a box? must have made countless of em |
Bronze Member Username: Phil_salisburyPost Number: 17 Registered: Sep-06 | Mark, Depends on the details and size of the enclosure. However, one time I did time myself and it took me 34 minutes to cut, built, cut the subwoofer opening and finish sand a dual sealed enclosure for 2 10w3's. And that was pushing it just to see how fast I could do it. I'm just one person and I have to divide my time between answering e-mails and phone calls, designing and drafting enclosure's, Ordering and picking up materials, cutting, building and finishing enclosures, packaging and shipping, not to mention all the other crap that come with running a business. It's not like I'm in the shop from sun up till sun down blasting thru sheets of mdf and building boxes. I, unlike someone who shall remain nameless, I don't take on orders that I know I wouldn't be able to deliver on in the time frame to do so. However, it does not take me two month's to deliver/ship an enclosure either. Right now, that time frame is 10-14 days plus delivery time. |
Silver Member Username: UdaiPost Number: 196 Registered: Dec-04 | Yes Phil, I knew you wouldnt do an exact spec, thats why i said similar. I was just curious because i wanted a custom box for my GTI. The rear seats tilt at <45 so id need to do some measuring for a custom wedge. Is there an email where I can reach you? |
