this sub enclosure for 10w7 good?

heres the link, i think a custom box made at a place near me would be 2-300 and like i dunno how to make one, sorry, if i did i could save loads of money.

subzone

on the tech specs for the 10w7 it says for a sealed enclosure-
w- 15.5 in
h- 11.5 in
d- 18.25 in
recommended sealed volume- 1.25 cu ft.
sealed range- 1.00-1.375 cu ft

Subzone makes VERY good enclosures, but their carpet rips easily.

I have used two of their boxes, and they are made very well.

your going to spend all that money on a w7 and throw it in a pre-fab box. spend less money and build you one

should i take it to the audio place near me, theres only two places and i think only one makes custom boxes and have them make me a custom box to the specs rather then buying the one made by subzone then?

edit: i cant make one, im not that good at like cuttin wood and making circles and all that good stuff

...that box is a box that is specially made for the W7...it will most likely be better then any box made by a local shop. If it costs the same or more to get a custom box made, I would get the Subzone.

that box will work out great for that woofer, give you an F3 of around 30 Hz or so, maybe high 20's, reasonably flat.

for extreeme SQ 1.4 gross is reccommended, and after woofer displacement of the w7 (the thing is huge!) that puts you reasonably close to where you are.

the 10w7 works anywhere between 1 gross to 1.4 gross, and although you lose a bit of low frequency extension at 1.00, yrou box, at 1.25, should make you very, very happy.
