Default xB Subwoofer Enclosure coming soon from KIT

http://store.kreativeimport.com/prod...pany_id=102007

This will be availble in gelcoated fiberglass ready to paint to match the vehicle or in grade A carbon fiber.

Fits a 10"single subwoofer and tucks in against the passenger side wall of the hatch area. Also sits tight against the rear seat.

Any thoughts yet on pricing? Will you offer to sell with a sub?

Looks real nice!

What's the point in putting a sub there but killing a speaker in the process?

ooo, good catch. Maybe there should be a OEM speaker box within the box?

Those speakers are pretty well worthless back there though.
Hardly even rear fill they way they are positioned.

I'd like to see one of those sub boxes for the left side also!

What's the expected pricing?

I doubt you can even hear those speakers in the back if your sitting in the front of your car. I know with my car people can't hear shyt in the back of my car except THUMP THUMP THUMP.

I have a friend that made his own rear cargo cover out of plywood, replacing the OEM cloth one, and the music was definitely muffled because of it.
You may think that the sound coming from them is not heard up front, but it definitely is.

Any pricing estimates Kreative Imports?

Will you be making one for the other side too?

no pricing estimate yet. as for the guys asking about one for the other side we are only offering the single side but we have a few more applications in the works that are a universal mounting plate.

These will be set up for dual 10's, dual 12's as well as tri plates for each. They will be made to install to a wooden box but give the nice exotic shapes and be paintable or offered in carbon fiber.

The cost of having a shop hand fabricate a custom enclosure like that would be probally 2-3 times what we can mass produce them for.

i don't quite get it . what's the point of using one when a good dually or single one on the center keeps you sound centered. a 12 in the center would be cool. then i could add my 2 amps around it.

bass is non directional. This sub enclosure is for the customer that wants to add some bass, keep most of the hatch available and also have something that looks good. These enclosures can be painted, or upholstered in carpet or vinyl.

The other baffle plates we're releasing will be for the customer that wants to fill the space up back there with custom audio

Correct me if i am wrong! BUT, i think the sub was desinged for a TC hatch! Not an xb or xa! RIGHT?

Well I personally would really be interested in the exact same thing, but having one on each side.
Two 10"s and the enclosures in Hot Lava....mmmm...that'd be sweet.

Having only one would look weird IMO.

i think the idea is perfect for people who want the space in the back and still have a little boom,boom to go with it. is it portable? and i think it is cool to be able to keep your spare tire also,(never know when you might need it!)

There is no such thing as "GRADE A CARBON FIBER".

Sorry, it may be irrelevant, but everytime I see that it just irks the crap outta me. Sellers are real bad about that on eBay too - they heard something, it sounded good and it gets passed along.

There's no grade "A", "B", "C" or 1, 2, 3....

Grade A as in no misweaves and top quality finish. Also UV protected so our parts don't fade
