    That box looks really slick.

    But, it doesn't look like something you can casually take in and out if you want to vascilate from daily driver on weekdays to track time on weekends. Am I right?

    Ah, the woes of having a dual purpose car. Someday, I will have lots of money.

    Sorry for the slow responses!

    Please keep in mind that I am in the middle of moving, too, so I don't always have internet access.

    Are you still taking orders? If so I would be very interested in a 10" box.

    Matt
    None of those parts are E34 lowering springs, are they?

    I am only building enough for this round. I have no place to keep unsold boxes, so go find some money!

    Couple questions. You said it's better if the back seat has the ski pass-through, is it possible to just take a BFH and pound that center piece out?

    Also, will either of the boxes work with the stock premium speakers in place? I suppose I could ditch them, but I'd prefer not to.

    Matt
    As Eric said, the rear speakers aren't disturbed at all.

    The ski pass is spot welded in place, basically. Pops out easily in seconds.

    Yes you will want to remove the center metal piece behind the rear seat. For the best output into the interior, you want a rear seat back that has the fold down armrest. Alternatively, you can remove some of the foam padding from the center section of the rear seatback.

    The box will not interfere with the factory rear premium speakers at all, so you can still use them if you wish.

    Guys, any of you that are ready to jump, do it now.

    I am having a hell of a time finding a place to rent that has space for me to do woodworking so I may not have a place to build again.

    Paypal me NOW so I can get these built!

    Any that have been paid will get built, but I need to know how many to do.

    At least not to MY ears. And since it would be in MY car, a sealed box is what I prefer. That's the thing about sound, it's all subjective.

    Keep in mind that wasn't a shot at you or your products, I just like the sound of sealed boxes better.
    I hear exactly what you are saying...I have always preferred sealed boxes over ported since that is that I liked sound-wise also. I was a bit apprehensive going with Luke'e ported box at first, wondering what it would really sound like...let me just say, you have absolutely nothing to worry about in regards to sound quality with one of Luke's ported boxes. Absolutely no port or cone noise at very high output levels-just deep, clean, tight, and musical bass. I am not easily impressed in the least when it comes to car audio, but I have been with Luke's 10" box.

    It really is that damn good.
