you mean the fiberglass at the bottom?

I think thats what he ment, and a lot of boxes are done like that, its a lot easier and works very well. Looks pretty good, but im not a fan of just having the sub chill on the bottom like that.

looks good, how many layers of fiberglass (total) did you use, I'm also not a real fan of subs just sittin on the floor, but it looks good non the less.

look clean but i dont like a few things

it would have been nicer to see two subs rather then just one..
dont like the fact you can see the two cracks on the side either

really dont like the fact the sub isnt going to sit flush with everything else its just gonna bolt on top

but if he gave you a cheap price then its good

1) was gonna 2 subs, but space did not allow, so instaead of 2 Rockfords i got one Type R

2)b/c i was gonna get a type R it was not going to fit with it countersunk(flush) so he put sum more MDF so the sub could fit

im not 100% happy with it, but im happy.

yeah it looked like you were going to go with a two sub set up but yeah like i said its a nice anc clean look could be better but i would be happy with that too...

It looks very good...
however I must say something to you... I used to have a set up like that, the box being the spare tire and it was just like yours but I had 4 MB Quart subs 10inch. It sounded like $hit. it looked beautiful and very clean but the sound sucked. I eventually changed it to a better setup.. not as good looking but better sound.

that couldve been the way the box was built, or the reverb of the car, or b/c u didnt dynamat. but ive heard some nice false floor systems

The box was built exactly the same way you see on those pics...
The car was a Celica hatch 89...
Dynamat was not the problem...
The problem was the air space... The Seakers I had were not designed to use the air space that I had on the box. The box was perfect, the air space was not.

My suggestion for you is to make sure that the airspace that he has available complies with the sub he is going to install.

if the airspace wasnt right then the box wasnt right. they go hand in hand. my volume cubic feet is about .9 the type R asks for .7-1.0

I dont think you read what I wrote...The Speakers I had were not designed to use the air space the box had.

In any case good luck with your sound.
