Review needed on sub box

Has anyone used the boxes built by supercrew sound?

Thanks for any input.

Just do a forum search on here. They come highly rated by other members on this forum. So does the Fox box.

Try subthump.com I have their box the only complaint I have about the box is the speaker terminals. They use push in type and they pop out under presure. I found out for this application go to your local speciality electronic store and buy the same size terminal but buy the screw in type, Problem fixed for about $4. I have the jl 10w1v2 I am very impressed with the wide range the speaker box combo can reproduce the lowest lows and the tightest thumping base. They just work real well together The box advertised inside cubic vol is .64 and the jl requires .625 Just food for thought I am also running the 5 channel Kicker amp 700.5 I believe is the model #.

I looked at the supercrew sound boxes which I will probably get for my 03 crewcab,, However the way the box is and the fact I will probably need a new sub .. I would say go with the underseat mount and get the single 12.. box .. I just cant see 2- 10's or 2-12's in that small of an airspace.. I think the box I looked at on has a total volume of like 1.1 cubic feet for the whole opening and most of the tens and twelves I have been looking at call for around .75to.93 cubic feet .. I can honestly say that when i was driving my 1993 F150 I had a single sub box from them with 2 10's mounted behind the seat and it sounded better than anything I could build.

Thanks for the input. I have a JL 10w1v2 that I'm trying to find a home for and noticed that SCS was now making a single sub box.

I felt the same way about subthump. You are buying it on the internet buyer beware. I have 08 screw with subthumps box for sealed 2 10 inch its a down fire model. It is just to this point about 1 month having it installed no issues the jl w1v2 10" 4 ohm with a kicker 700.5 420 to the bass turn the gain down the speaker and box application just work really well for a full spectrum of music it reproduces low lows and the tight punchie bass. I have had alot of systems in my day but this set up works thebest yet to date. My installer and myself were very sceptical> i had a 2004 f250 with a custom box .93 per side with no divider but very shalloaverage depth was about 4" 7' on the bottom and 3' on the top punchie bass real good could crank it no issues low bass forget it at 3/4 vol it would start flopping. My belief now is you use it in the box size they recomend it will hit and hit hard just my 2 cents

Well known quality as well as more airspace and deeper mounting depth than any other prefab box manufacturer to my knowledge.

I have the single 10" Supercrew Sound box with a 10W1V2 in my 07 powered by a JL A1400. Its a good box but the sound was just ok. I decided to throw a small port in it to see how it reacted and now it's way better. The port is 1.5" X 11" and fires out towards the jack near the front of the box. Anyway, it's a good piece. Good luck. There is a picture in my gallery.

You port is 1.5" x 11"? Isn't that kinda huge for a small port? Just wondering, figured you meant 1.1".... This is almost identical to what I'm thinking of installing btw...

My port is a 1.5" diameter and 11" long piece of PVC. Works great.
