Retrofit console subwoofer box?

[Rocket Man]

Wow thanks for the heads up. What other powered sub is less than 10” wide?

I don’t know of any of those powered subs in those small enclosures that sound good unfortunately. I wish Rodneys Boxes made an enclosure for the NBS like he makes for the NNBS. I put one of his in my 08 Silverado and it hits hard with a 10” down firing JL. It utilizes all available space without interfering with anything. Maybe you can build something.

I wonder if the one @Fosscore added to his nbs would work for you? He has a build thread. You can also check it out in the classifieds, as he's selling his Tahoe, but he has all his mods listed.

I see JL makes a Stealthbox for the 03-07 SUVs with console so you should ne able to build one since they’re ridiculously expensive.https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0231/7202/2350/products/SB-GM-BURBCNSL-10W3v3.jpg?v=1578075614

Wow Fosscore’a Tahoe is impressive. I see the build specs state that he has a Stealthbox in the console, but I can’t find any posts that show it.

Indeed, budget is a major factor in this set up. Why did you have to say “build one”... Now I will almost certainly be drawing up specs and visiting HomeDepot

There is indeed a lot of space under the center console, especially if one were to remove the storage compartment and build a more shallow one to be able to use the space below it.

On the other hand, perhaps more of a less punchy mid-bass in the console may not be that bad, given that a strong woofer would rattle everything in the cup holder and console compartment.

Plus, building a box would also require a separate woofer and amp, further increasing the cost.

Dilemma continues. I guess I’ll do some research and cost analysis.

This looks like the one which fits 03-06 Yukons, and the same one that Fosscore has in his Tahoe.

I wonder how difficult it would be to squeeze one of these into an 01 console if I can score a used one on eBay or CL.

I’m telling you, the powered one will leave you unsatisfied especially if you already have a rear sub. You won’t even know it’s there and that money could be put toward a decent setup.
Edit: when the sub fires down you don’t really get much console rattling.

Pretty sure it won't fit into an 01 console. Again, I think the console is not wide enough. I could be wrong.

Hmmm okay, good point.
