Smile My Beautiful New Custom Subwoofer Enclosure

Hello Everyone,

For months now, I have searched for subwoofer enclosure that would completely replace my rear 993 seats. Needless to say, I searched Rennlist and its sponsers along with the net etc. The following subwoofer (with my input)
was designed by Sound Sensations in Atlanta GA. The sub enclosure took about two days to design, build & tweek. The cost was $ 750.00 and it simply looks and sounds amazing. BTW: The subs are two 8 inch Rockfords, they`re installed as down firing with a two hidden air ports.

Hope you all enjoy.

Thanks

Jordan

61 pounds to be exact, too me.. the additional weight is unimportant. I am a music nut and gooooooood sound makes me happy.

You will need to diet so the change in front to rear weight distribution doesn't throw off your cornering.

Nice job for sure. I have tried with all my P Cars to build a decent system. Too me, it's a waste of time and I own a Hi Fi store. Just too much hassle for the results in a 911.
These days it's the engine sound that does it for me.
Still a nice job though
