This guy is selling on MF so I was wondering. Said the box was custom built to fit in his stang that has the mach. Looks like the carpeted board style. Might be able to drop him down a bit.

if you want subs that get kinda loud but sound like *** then get them if not i would pass. and a custom wood box is easy to build.

i sell the stuff for a living and personally will not put anything in my car that is spelled too much like what dynamite does.... according to cea 2006 standards that amp probably makes about a third of the power it says on it.

What??? Who cares if it's fiberglass? It could be custom fited with 3/4" MDF and perfporm exactly the same. Qualtiy of the build aside, the material used to make the box (assume it is't tin foil) should make no difference in value.

Sony makes the $$hitiest car audio EVAR!!!! and legacy is an off brand so im not sure. Look in the amp, sometimes off bands say 1500 watts! and if you open the amp an look inside theres a 5lb weight and the electronics inside are no more than in a stock deck.....

sony is not crappy man... my bets freind has 2 of the pentagonal 12 inch subs and a 1200 watt amp and he has NEVER had a problem with any of the sony stuff... plus sony subd hit harder and clearer than most high brands like infinity, mtx, pioneer, and audiobahn(sucks very bad)
