I would like to enclose a set of MM6 6.5" components. Where can I buy a speaker box?

I don't really have any tools and I am moving soon so I don't want build one myself. Thanks.

    Interesting idea, I think car speakers are made with the car's cabin gain in mind but I'd like to hear from someone who knows if that would work.

    The only problem I could see is the Xover is in one piece so it can't be built in to the box. Other than that I think it would look pretty slick. Nice industrial/futuristic design without being to gaudy. I can see it now...

    (sorry 'bout the pic, the comp I'm on doesn't have Photoshop)

    Good suggestion with Parts Express but they only had a 6" box.

    Nice picture, but I already have a location for the tweeter. This is going in a Wrangler, that's why I need the box.

    good morning:
    you can make your speaker boxes but its depending on if its marine , bike or inside a car. I use marine grade plywood water proof them then cover them to match the bike. Inside a car I would use mdf ( better for the sound of the speaker).
    I am working on building some fiberglass speaker pods but I am still on a learning curve. LOL
    I am restricted on size so I can't use the speker box programs they have that would allow you to get the correct speaker flat response.
    Good luck with it. I am new to the site. love the polk quality I just spent $9300. installing two great systems in both my new vehicles. quality !
    Thanks Polk!:biggrin:

    Really!!! An 8 year old thread.....you are responding to an 8 year old thread. Did it take that long to formulate an answer.
