Well-made enclosure with an awesome-looking finish. Far better than standard carpeting.

Perfect durable finish 

I bought this with the zvx 8, but that speaker does not fit this cut-out.  Very disappointing.  After I email for a return they send me the compatibility list. How about putting that right on the page before people order?  I guess they got we'll 'make it work'. I thought about using a router or sanding it, but I shouldn't have to do that for a box I paid good money for.  Instead I'm returning the subwoofer and I'll use a JL I already had that needs a bigger box anyway.

8" Skar sub I bought does not fit

I did a review when I received the stuff and here's one after loading sub. Most is for noobs like me.
First I wanted to seal the interior of the box. The box is super important to your sound. I bought some Rustoleum Undercoating Pro Grade.. $8 at Lowes. Its like rubber. Besides the interior walls and corners, the terminal housing in the box is often a place without perfect seals.
Im a noob but I saw videos of pros and they dont even like using this kind of terminal housing, they drill a couple holes for the wires and use caulk type stuff for perfect seal.
Anyway, then I made sure to test the coils...2 OHMS each, then wired it for 4 OHMS .Now Ive drilled tons of stuff but I got nervous before this one. Drills can slip and poof , right in the cone.
So you may want to use an Awl or Punch to tap a little hole in the place youre going to pre-drill with a hammer. Pros and experienced guys would probably laugh but idc I was nervous and I wanted perfection without a hitch. It helps starting the bit off. I bought Power Pro gold coated screws that say pre-drillings not necessary but I did it anyway.
I did have one issue with one hole.
Make sure your drill bit isn't too big or dont pre drill all the way through cos when I did that it made the screw hole feel stripped. I had to put some material down in the hole and coat the screw with Super Glue. Worked like a charm.Thats it, oh I tesated after and its at 4 OHMS thank God. Cant wait to hear it.,

Loaded and tested

Man  Im a fool cos I thought it was going to be a good bit bigger from the pics and I am thrilled that its not.
The armor coating is bad to the bone. No finish issues whatsoever.
Funny thing is, I had read a review where some dude loved it but was bothered by his anal nature noticing the interior being bare wood so he said he was going to flex seal the inside.
I just bought a can and the thick white lining is adhered to the inner box really well...grrr

Super cool

Amazing box

Good little box to get started. I purchased this box for a zvx8. The subwoofer did not fit right in. But a couple minutes of sanding it with sandpaper made it fit in. It sounds good with a 8 inch zvx

8inch subwoofer enclosure for one 8inch

Seen a review on poor finish, mine had a blemish, but looks great, purchased for an Sdr-8 2ohm, just purchased the 350.1 after watching a video Skar Audio updated. Hoping for a little bump in a tiny Honda Fit! 4 doors setup with with Skar Tx65, currently no amp for them, but way better than stock.

Box looks great!

8" empty enclosure

This enclosure has it all. The 1.5 cubic meter volume and the port design provide great bass for both subwoofers and mid bass drivers. The shape is also great for home use since it is rectangular so I am able to attach it to a stand. The MDF is strong and I was also able to fit s 4” horn tweeter just below the port perfect for both my 2 way and my subwoofers.

Perfect Size to provide Great Bass, and Shape and Appearance

Super impressed with the sound and quality of the Skar Audio sub boxes. When I saw the Armor style boxes, I thought that would be great to put on my golf cart. I wanted the box for the 10, but didn’t have the room, so I went with the 8, and man, that little sub slams. I don’t remember the exact number of the sub, but it was recommended on the Skar Audio website for the box. The box is tuned perfectly for the sub. It blows away the JBL 10 that was on the cart. I am very pleased with the Skar Audio products.

Great enclosure 

The quality of the enclosure leaves nothing to be desired.  The sub fit tightly which made sealing it a breeze.  Don't hesitate to buy Skar enclosures. They complete the project.
