I am wondering how good this sub box that this company is selling on EBAY. I wasn't going to put subs in my Titan because I didn't want any rattling in the future but my friend just put some subs in his truck and it sounded awsome. I just need a little bass and I will be happy. If any one has any info please let me know.

Nice looking box, though the KC and CC have different under-the-rear-seat dimensions so I'm not sure how one box could be perfectly optimized for ANY Titan to provide the best amount of air space. Guess I would have to see one in person to give you a better opinion.
No I don't have one.
It seems the boxes with the best fit under the rear seat have quite an angle on the top piece, connecting a taller front wall to a shorter rear wall. This box doesn't appear to have a 'ramped' top to it, atleast not visible in the photos. Would help to see a side view.
1bad, can you tell if they have a slant on the top of the box? Also, my experience with installing in trucks with this large of a cab is that an up-firing design yields more bass, even though it is under the seat when the seat is down.
I really like the fiberglass box here: Custom fiberglass Sub box and Bezel pics
I am not going to shell out $650 right now for a sub box. Glass work is expensive, I no longer have any connections, been out of the install business for 3 -4 years now. I guess I'm stuck paying retail for glass labor or having to settle for a MDF enclosure.
I think .7 cubes is a bit light for a box this size, but polyfill should help a bit. The mounting depth is gonna hurt me here, the subs I want need more depth.
I cant tell if there is a slant. In my old hardboby pickup, I tried both ways in th extended cab. The upward firing sounded louder and cleaner than the muffled downward firing. This box I believe is a downward fire. As far as the fiberglass or plexiglass boxes, I dont see a point cause they are under the seat. Unless, you intend to show it off. I prefer stealth as in Baltimore, if someone else likes it better they will help themselves to it.

well I just bought the sub box on EBAY and will find out in about a week and a half if it was worth the money. Wish me luck.............

based on where the step is located, it looks like this box is designed to "fire down", meaning the subs will face the floor.
i heard it's better to fire up, with the sub facing the bottom of the seat. can anyone confirm this.
from the looks of the sub, they can probably just drill out the 8" or 10" hole on the top instead, if you request it that way.

I would like to confirm what you heard. Upward firing sounds better to me. I have not heard a downfiring box that sounded as crisp as an upward firing box.. maybe one is out there, but I have not come across it.
