A few months ago, I installed 4 rockford fosgate 6x8 door speakers(t1682) and a p400-4 amp to power them, and ever since then, I've been wanting more. I saw where some people on here have built stealth sub boxes so that's what I decided to do. I like the stock look and I even hated mounting my p400-4 amp behind the seat, but it fits very well there.
For the sub, I went with a rf r2d4-10(10",250wRMS,DVC) and a rf r250-1d. I chose this class d amp because it was so small as you can see in the pictures below. I calculated my box to be just under 0.5 cu ft so I added 1/2lb polyfill to the box. I've got it all finished except for re-routing my source cables down the other side of the explorer. I'll post back with how it sounds when I get that done, hopefully this weekend.
I wanted to post this just in case anybody had any questions or wanted any more pics before I closed it up. I won't be putting the panel back on for a couple of weeks because I'm going to take the roof liner off to fix the stupid sunroof rattle.
The cost of the amp was $105 and the sub was $45, both brand new on ebay.
The amp will power the sub with 250wRMS at 2ohm.
The box cost $20- 2 sheets of 2x4 3/4" MDF from home depot @ $10 a sheet. It can be made from 1 sheet without mistakes...
PICS!
