Has anyone bought this custom subwoofer enclosure?
So first let's talk about the box. It fit really well in there, so just used velcro as a precaution, but that box wasn't going anywhere. And I did try and pull the speaker, and it's in their good, so sealed it in their tight. Was curious if they added any stuffing. JL Audio says 1.0 cubic ft box is recommended, Crutchfield says 1.1 cubic ft, and the box is supposed to be .95 cubic ft. Very close, hardly enough to hear a difference.
Hey would you mind sharing all the options you picked when ordering? You still liking your setup?

As far as Wicked, I bought the item third week in Dec, and I had to call them a month later, and they said it was being shipped that day. I got it a week later. It's supposed to be three weeks total, with 10-14 days just a build the box. Now, it was during the holidays, so maybe that's why, but really slow.
Really like the idea of a setup that looks like it is supposed to be there, at least better than a rectangular box that definitely looks like it is not custom. I also like the idea of still having access to most of the trunk, including the spare tire access if that became necessary.
I was thinking a 10" is probably a better fit for me based on the type of music (rock/hard rock/classic), plus I already have a good amp to power a 10, but would be underpowered probably for a sealed box 12 (AudiControl 300W RMS). Honestly, I was pretty disappointed in the ML sub output. I've got a 2020 Tacoma with the often mocked JBL factory sub and it is better than the ML sub!
For those that have this box setup, how happy are you with the 10 or 12 you have? Seems the box is better suited (based on volume) for the 12 as it is closer to the speaker specs. The 10" JL sub I would be looking at is best suited for only .625 cu ft. The extra box volume might be a little too much for it and allow the sub to move too freely?
How about any resonance/rattles in the trunk and/or sheetmetal after install?
Are you still good with not mechanically fastening the box to the trunk floor?
Appreciate any and all help, suggestions, etc!
i had this box in my 14 prior to getting my 21 and it wouldn’t fit in the 21. My trunk wouldn’t close with the wicked cas box unfortunately so I sold it to a friend for his 14
