Default C6 sub enclosure options

I did some searching, but I haven't really found what I'm looking for here... Perhaps someone can offer up some opinions.

I'm looking to add a sub to my C6 Coupe. In the searching I've done, I have found basically 2 options:

- JL's Stealthbox
- Dave Hall's (corvettecaraudio) box

I've found info on the JL box, but not much on the other. Has anyone here used one of these boxes? If so, which driver did you use? I'd love to find some comparative information as well.

Are there any other viable options to consider (other than a custom box, which doesn't make much sense for my application)?

I appreciate any experiences or advice anyone has to share.

I have worked with Dave (he did my Amp rack) and if it was not for the birth of his child, I would have gotten his subwoofer enclosure as well.

He recommended a Memphis Audio woofer, but you can use any shallow woofer that you would like...

As for Dave, one of the best people that I have worked with, truly a class act!

Here is the amp rack he did for me... The sub is the JL Stealth

I would not rule out custom enclosures too quickly. You'd be surprised how inexpensively you can get a good custom enclosure from a good shop. The Car Toys here in Oregon regularly beats the best price you can get online for JL Audio boxes and their enclosures look as nice or, in most cases, nicer than the JL version. And you get the flexibility of choosing where you want the sub mounted, the direction you want it to face, etc.

It never hurts to stop by a reputable shop and let them know whar you are looking for. The worst that can happen is they can't hit your price range and you just move on to another option.
