does anyone build bandpass boxes?

[pax217]

I've always said bandpass boxes are for SUV's, but I still believe they suck. If you play rap music, etc., you should get a ported box. If you play a lot of rock, etc., I'd go with a sealed box.

However with a dub-7, you should probably have a sealed box, just because of the power they put out. I'd go with a cheaper set of 12"s like Alpine type R's, or maybe 1 Kicker S12L7, probably for around the same price range.

sounds good, thanks

well, it's all from one and the same member's ride thread.

in any event, if you want a box built, it seems to make sense to go to a local audio store and see what can be done.

well, the reason why i wanted one was a friend with an is300 had a sealed box for his w7 and he put it into a bandpass box after about 3 weeks and it hit alot harder. the only car audio stores around here are car toys, and they blow. i'll do more research and see where I go from there.
