    Well I worked on my hybrid battery again and got it much more balanced. The hybrid noise is much quieter! I could live with this.

    Hello, I'm wanting to replace the nvx subwoofer that came with the enclosure as well. Did you fabricate that trim ring yourself?

    i recently installed a Audiocontrol DSP amp in one it's a 6 channel 750w amp and also had intermittent whine.

    i switched it out with a JL Audio DSP Amp 800w by 8 channel and whine was gone.

    simply switching out the amp solved my issues.

    UNCLBONZ - would you recommend the NVX box?
    I'm also looking for an enclosure that i don't have to remove when carrying large cargo.

    Been looking into making one myself, but if i can find some good reviews on the NVX box then i'll save myself the work. and flying fiberglass dust everywhere.

    Looking to use a JL Audio shallow mount sub in it.
