Default Is anyone an experienced subwoofer box builder?

I know it's not tough, I'm just so damn **** I want it perfect and don't trust myself to do a perfect job on my first one. I'm thinking of getting a 10" sub, so it wouldn't be big.

Default I certainly CAN....

I'm in the same boat, except I already have the sub

I'm actually going to try to custom mold an enclosure to the passengers side of the trunk. If there was enough interest in this from A4 and S4 owners, I'm sure we could get a local shop to do a "proper" mold to make a few of them...

That's what I was thinking, although the guy at Soundtrack said not enough room for a 10"

Yeah! Very cool. Do you know the volume? I'm looking for around 0.7 cubic feet.

Default Pat, look at Boston Pro series 10". Only needs .5 cubic

That's what I have, sounds GREAT in a small enclousure. Soundtrack guys have NO idea what they're talking about.

Default Thanks for the input.

I was actually just about to order these. I've heard it's comparable to the Boston gear. I heard IAMMATT's 12" Boston the other night and it was nice, but way more than what i'm looking for. Have you hear this Alpine gear?
