Review written by Randolph from Bronx, NY

These boxes are of excellent quality. Very strong, thick wood, I have a kicker L5 in these boxes and I can say that these boxes can handle every bit of bass I can crank out. Very sturdy boxes. 100% recommend.

Answer 2

vented is louder then ported what more could you ask for

box needs to be at least 3.5 cubic feet id go for 4 if you have the room
