Stealth Subwoofer!
 

EDIT****: PLEASE POST IF YOU ARE INTERESTED. DON'T JUST VOTE


If you guys have never heard, JL has a product line called Stealthbox. They basically design a vehicle-specific subwoofer enclosure that is:

1. Obviously Stealth
2. Takes up very minimal space
3. Usually will be covered when you use the factory cargo cover.

The con's are that it's a bit expensive, and it comes with a JL sub(which you can always switch out if you like).

Just to give you an idea, I bought a stealthbox for my Xterra and it was $600. For that, I got a tight-hitting subwoofer box that took up basically no cargo room(Nissan Xterra Stealthbox by JL Audio), and I can use my cargo cover to hide it.

I have not seen a Stealthbox on their website for the 370Z. This was the case with the newer Xterra, but one of the forum members contacted JL, and they replied that if there was enough interest, they would build it, so he went back on the Xterra forum and rallied support and got people to email JL expressing their interest, and JL developed it.

What I am trying to say is, who would be interested in this type of product? I know there is the Z enclosure, but that is by no means stealth, and that's just asking for broken glass.

The sub that came with my Stealthbox, coupled with my Alpine PDX 1.600, hurts my ears even at half power, and sounds great also.

I personaly would rather have a Z enclosure, or a regulars trunk box. Never was a huge fan with JL not to forget mentioning they like to have a high price tag.

I mean there price tag is going to be arounf say 500-800 just for the box and sub. Than you have to buy a amp. When I can get a nice Z-enclosures a better sub than JL and a nice amp for around that and still have money left over for the power wire and such.

Need more comments guys. If you guys want this, there has to be more support than just clicking on the poll.

I would love one!! Big fan of JL here!

I'd be interested :excited:

I NEED a stealthbox. I can't take up the trunk space that a Z enclosure occupies..... not much, but getting 2 sets of golf bags back there IS important to me. I also need the luggage space when traveling. A stealthbox that fits inside the spare tire itself would work great. One member, many months ago, even built one himself and it works great. If no one comes out with one soon, I will be paying a lot of money to have the local shop fabricate one for me out of fiberglass.

Edited my first post, cmon guys, if you want this, you have to post and show more support than just clicking the poll. If and when we need to email JL showing our interest in such a product, how are we going to do that when people aren't even posting and showing their support in this thread, let alone take the time to email them.

I would love one that could go in the little pockets behind the seats and hold at least 1 JL 8W7. The trunk is so small already I'm having a hard time pulling the trigger on a Zenclosures type box. Decided to start with suspension upgrades while I wait in hopes that something like this gets made.

I would love one... But only if it would fit a W7

depends on the stealthiness of it. Z Enclousures isn't stealth to me. It's out in the open and takes up space. If it's hidden somewhere, and a truely a stealth box then yes.

We used to put them in the corners of the turnk, back by the talilights in those little cubby holes, on the 350Z

if it can fit inside the spare with ample sound i'd be interested...but damn i'll have to take out the stereo AGAIN. :D hahaha.

I doubt they will design it for the spare area(No big company is going to design something for the masses that requires the permanent removal of spare tire). It's made to take up minimal space.

All of their boxes are made to look as stealth as possible while sacrificing very minimal space. I am not sure what kind of design they will do, and what kind of sub they will be able to use.

no no, i mean inside the spare like the bose sub. the spare tire is still in the car. im not a bass head, i just want something to fill the void and to lessen the burden on the front woofer.

For the money of A JL stealth enclosure I could builda fiberglass enclosure any way you want, carpet it and use a higher quality sub. Me and Bigaudiofanatic were talking about designing an enclosure about a month ago. I could even throw some carbon fiber in teh mix.:yum:
