Hey all, I've decided to get REAL serious with my autocrossing, and as a result, weight savings and space considerations have taken on new meaning. I've decided to sell my custom subwoofer enclosure in order to save a little weight, and allow for installation of a rear strut bar in my car. (Heh, I also could use more room to carry around autox rims and tires) The box was designed for use in any FWD second generation (1995+) DSM (Eagle Talon or Mitsubishi Eclipse) car. I would presume that it would fit in an AWD as well, but I can't be positive. The box was designed to make the most efficient use of hatch space, without sacrificing sound quality. To give you an idea, the enclosure rests directly behind the seat (with enough clearance to stealth mount amps behind the rear seats against the box), and extends into the hatch to right before the small floor-mount-points for the cargo net. The enclosure is just high enough so that when you close the hatch, the rear deck recieves slight pressure from the top of the box, eliminating any possibility of rattle. This sealed enclosure was designed around two rearward facing JL 10W-4 subwoofers, which share a chamber that provides approximately .7 cuft of airspace per woofer. The sound is incredible. This thing can provide enough mind-numbing thump to satisfy the most demanding basshead, and yet has proven to be unbeatable for rock and jazz music. (I did NOT stuff the box with polyfill, so if you want a little lower/louder bass, stuffing may give you more, but I'd be REAL suprised if you felt it necessary.. hehe) It makes me realize just how addicted I am to racing to consider selling this, but hey, I guess you gotta make compromises sometimes. Despite the face that this enclosure was designed for Talon/Eclipse cars, it will still work in MANY MANY other types of cars, due to it's small size. To avoid trouble/confusion, I would like to sell the box with the woofers it was intended for: two cherry JL 10W4's. I'll let the whole thing go for $400, and we'll split any shipping charges. If you are interested or have questions, please respond through e-mail (sin@value.net), as I rarely read through all the articles in this newsgroup. Thanks. Jake sin@value.net
