Not saying you can't get a good deal, but those bandpass boxes are usually not the way to go. Look at the woofer parameters or manufacturers suggestions, and pick a box. You didn't even mention which eclipse sub (i'm not familiar with the brand). From what I've heard they perform best in a sealed box. |

Gold Member Username: Jonathan_fGA USA Post Number: 3915 Registered: May-04 | Sealed and Ported prefabs aren't great, but prefabbed bandpasses are a NO-NO. Bandpass boxes have to be built to very close tolerances, they're hard to design and even harder to build, and must be designed for the specific sub in mind to get good results out of it. |
