Anyone tried a LAB slapbox woofer enclosure?

I'm thinking of getting one of these for my new Morel Ultimo 8's. I think it's cool that someone is selling a tuned box custom done for Morel Ultimo dual 8's

They also claim it's tuned at 33 hz. This would get away for my cars RF of 40 hz, and thats a plus.

Have any of you tried a slapbox?

I would hope that is the case, but I hate to drop $150. on a unknown product.

I could get friends to help with the build of a box, But I'm tired of asking for favors.

Would you model these two subs?

They sound like HammerShit in the .35 box. Folks that use the larger 10/12" all go up about 30% on box volume. They claim the Morel spec is on the small side.

It's possible, I don't own any Morel sub, but don't believe everything online; there is a "why" somewhere the manufacture recommends specs, and this hobby it's a trail and error, it also depends on your install, the car, the power and tuning...

I've seen my subwoofers start sounding like $hi-t and after tuning they are the sweetest bass ever.

So back to the first question, Does this Slapbox look like the real deal? Or does it look like some kid in his Mom's garage, modeling subs and making cabinets without really hearing the subs?

Being on Facebook means nothing to me. I'd like to hear from folks that have owned or at least heard them. Anyone can make up a popular looking FB page.

But your pic of there shop is a big help! Thanks. At least I can see there affiliated with a legitimate looking business.
