| we install a ton of those boxes. They work "O.K". The finish and construction of them are acceptable.If you can save a little more money, I'd recomend a box designed specifically for your sub and built buy an experianced installer.For a little extra money you may get a lot more sound!

| sweet I just called a local sound shop and a factory made pioneer box made for my subs specs $180+tax is cheaper than the prefab one  
the factory box must be good if made to my subs specs. | |

| ^ You may have misunderstood. The shop probably quoted you a custom box built to the factory recommendations.
Generally, Pioneer does not sell boxes and the ones they do/did were cheap particleboard (TS1000 truck boxes anyone  )

That being said, If you can have a custom box made for $200.00 to the specifications of your woofer it is a tremendous value. | Agreed.
If cosmetics are important, it's tough to beat a bassworx box.
