Ha!! I’ve searched the internet for a week straight looking for as much information on this exact sub, and here it is!! Thank you!!

Really awesome vid, Justin. I enjoy watching you build and assemble stuff, while also conveying detail about your design choices.

It's refreshing to see you calling out an error or any mistakes as they happen. Most content creators will only produce a finished product without showing any errors. 💪🏽

I’m currently planning my first subwoofer box build ever! I could not have done it without your channel!

[Argedis]

Very nice box building skills.
My 1st box build I used a regular circular saw, tons of glue, brad nails, screws, and caulk since my cuts weren't perfect.
That was like 5 years ago it still bangs to this day in my restroom lol

Good job. Nvx is a decent product for budget builds its nice to see people using them more often.

I have had this 15" sub for 6 months. I really am impressed. With only 600 rms on it, but still low, loud and good SQ.

[bobbybyrkett]

Great video Justin. I enjoy your videos. That you don't edit out your mistakes and your an everyday person likes us all thank you again

[shdytrd]

It was cool to see this build from start to finish. Besides the craftsmanship, I really appreciate the extensive editing in your videos. 👍
**I made some headway on my "install" over the weekend and got the hardest part finished. (3 component front doors) My Mazda has concealed storage bins under the armrests where I put the 2 crossover boxes. I did partial sound deadening by covering all the openings and what I could get to on the outer door.

Lots of work!! I love my 15 inch Skar I got on Amazon for $220, it Rocks!!

Big fan of mine. Blew my first one after two months of dirty signal at well above it’s rms rating. Bought two vcw12s and they took the abuse for another year before I bought an oscilloscope and corrected my ways. Now I have another vsw15 and I’m working on breaking it in now.
Also worth noting, the port is more efficient with less surface area to cause turbulence. The more round/square the port, the better. I’m doing a 147 on 900w with two vcw12s and an 8” aero port and my friend is doing a 141 on rated power with a single vsw12 in a 4th order with square port.

Nice box! I gave up putting carpet on boxes a few years ago. Always was a pita. I only use Duratex now. Lasts forever and looks awesome.

[outlawGFXaus]

nice build man! Slot ports for the win!!!

[ohmwrecker]

Ya got the alt, you got lithium coming, nice head unit, growing channel... seem like the best idea to take that back seat out if you don't use it often🤷‍♂️ just my opinion 👍

[chrisstanek]

Love the content! Look forward to all your future videos.

[johnnyditommaso]
