how much u consider a stupid amount? i'd bet most places will be looking 150$ and up. most cheap single sub enclosures for 10's and 12's go for 60-80$ so for yours i'm saying more. and the ones i'm talking about are prefabbed and sold from like Sound Ordnance and Q-logic. Not a custom built one like your sayin. but hopefully either way you get what your looking for.

size isnt too much an issue but the fact that you can get noise with the remote so close to the RCA's. Not everyone does but generally its better to be safe then sorry

ahh thats not too bad. my g/fs sister had one of those. she killed it pretty quick tho, the car had durability issues. but seemed like fun to drive. its gotta be a major drop off from your cobalt tho.

nice Bpacak! the Fi in blue vinyl looks a little underwhelming, i think they could do a better job on their logo but that sub looks pure BEAST. now to fit it into a box thats not going to get blown apart.

i kinda like that the logo i plain, idk why haha.

knukonceptz sent me 10 gauge instead of 12 haha.

would be cool but i dont think il be able to wire the sub to one ohm, too big to fit 2 wires in the terminal.

2 10g? its not easy but possible. 2 10g are smaller than an 8g which the terminals "should" technically be made for. but the push terminals are always a hassle
