My choice would have to be Diamond though. I just installed an old C3d2 in my buddys car and it sounded very good considering the rest of the system he has. |

Bronze Member Username: TallaballaLino Lakes, MN United States Post Number: 59 Registered: Jan-07 | is that including shipping jeremy |

Gold Member Username: WingmanaliveA pic is worth 1000 words Post Number: 4161 Registered: Jun-06 | I think his $$ do include shipping. Not positive. He quoted me a box that I just couldn't justify spending the money on. He's got a great rep, don't get me wrong. I was just feeling his prices out. My quote was also for a HT sub so that may have made a big difference. |

Silver Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 685 Registered: Jul-06 | If that includes shipping it's a very good price for a well made box. |
|
Bronze Member Username: TallaballaLino Lakes, MN United States Post Number: 60 Registered: Jan-07 | yeah ms i agree i was lookin at other boxes and some wanted 160 for premade boxes and this one is custom and i think ill do it if my quote is around 200 |

New member Username: JibberjivePost Number: 1 Registered: Mar-07 | BTW the $110 on the R is likely without shipping, the cheapest I've found it is $125 shipped for the R . On ebay the Diamonds can be had for $152 shipped http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=015&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT &viewitem=%26item%3D250082654571%26%26 |
