Default Subthump quality

I own a Subthump subwoofer enclosure and the quality is very good for the $$$. Recommended.

I just got my subthump stealth box last week. Good quality for the $. But even more important is the customer service. Steve from ST is great, he sent me two carpet samples to check to match my light oak interior. Going for the install tomorrow, can't wait. I went with the single 10". The cubic ft is just right for the sub I'm having installed. I don't think you will go wrong with a SubThump box.

Customer service was great! Quality was great! I also got the box within a week or so of ordering. I had to make a few adjustments to fit the 12" JL W6V2 but it sounds great. If you want pics, email me. I haven't figured out how to post them on this yet. Also, not quite done with all the detailing

Steve, any chance of a small box for an 8" that would fit in one of the side compartments, or is that not doable.

Ok, I know, I'm gonna make an amp cover. I just got it back from the installer. Just wanted to show the SubThump box.

Its a Kenwood Excelon DVC 2ohm 10" 2005 model. It hits hard, sounds great. I'm feeding it around 350 watts RMS & 1000 peak.

I ordered my Stealth box yesterday. Steve has already emailed
me to check which sub I plan to install and to let me know that the
custom grill I ordered would not fit so he's removing it form my order.

Ive been very happy with the customer support so far and if the
box is 1/2 the quality of the customer service I'll be extremely happy.

Hey guys, a question on the Stealth box. It is my understanding that the Stealth box sits slightly lower than the deck so the compartment lid can cover it. Does the Stealth box come with a replacement lid that allows the sound to flow through? I like the pictures and if you have others, please email them to me at ardisfamily@sbcglobal.net
Thanks

Ah, the heck with JL and their expensive *** stuff. Guys are are tired of getting ripped off by them. the ONE box they have for corvettes is a mass produced item that should not cost $600. And the 10w3 they put in that thing is so limited. How many ppl want to be restricted to that? I'm more about giving customers options to choose different styles of boxes and sizes and quantities of subs. Oh, and saving customers about $4-500 bux in the process.
