According to Musicmoose their box is designed for subs with 5.5" and less mounting depth. The infinity's have a 5.75" mounting depth. The only possible way to make them fit in that box is to cut the back out and make a plate on each chamber to cover the hole like so:

it will, but then your going to have problems with the sub rubbing the floor when it pulses.

this is what i did i cut a hole out of the bottom of the box to allow room for the magnet. fit perfectly and i just covered the hole with a piece of steel. Looks awesome and fits great. The magnet sucked the steel tightly to the box and then i just put screws in it.
