Skar Audio SK1X8V Single 8" Universal Fit Ported Subwoofer Enclosure

The Skar Audio SK1X12V Single 12” Universal Fit Ported Subwoofer Enclosure is a well-built, versatile ported subwoofer box that gives music lovers an accessible way to enhance their bass without needing a custom enclosure. Designed to accommodate most 12″ subwoofers, it offers a good balance of performance, construction quality, and ease of installation. Performance & Sound Quality This 12″ ported design is tuned around 36 Hz with a 2.00 ft³ internal volume, aimed at producing deeper, more impactful low frequencies compared with sealed alternatives. Its kerf-style port helps reduce port turbulence and supports strong, responsive bass — ideal for genres that benefit from powerful lows like hip-hop, EDM, or rock.  Build & Installation The enclosure is finished in a sleek black carpet with clean lines and a sturdy MDF construction. Internally braced walls and poly-fill help enhance strength and acoustic performance. The included push-terminal cup and pre-wired leads make hooking up your sub relatively straightforward, though some users note the internal wiring can be a bit short or lightweight, so you may prefer upgrading the wires for a cleaner install. Fit & Versatility One of the main advantages of this universal fit model is its flexibility — it can be used in a wide range of vehicles without needing custom fabrication. Make sure you double-check your vehicle’s available space and subwoofer compatibility before purchasing. Considerations While most owners report solid performance and a professional build, a modest minority have mentioned minor issues like shorter than ideal internal wiring or occasional port noise at extreme volume levels. These aren’t deal-breakers but are worth being aware of if you’re looking for a truly high-end, competition-grade setup. Personal Summary Overall, this Skar Audio ported enclosure is a reliable choice for anyone wanting to upgrade their car audio system with deeper, punchier bass without investing in a custom box. It’s durable, performs well with a variety of 12″ subwoofers, and strikes a strong balance between quality and affordability — making it especially appealing for enthusiasts and DIY installers alike.

Nicely built. The wiring is ofc. Big plus. Some use cca which is junk. Only my opinion. I put 2ohm subs in it but wired them to 4ohm so my amp can handle it while delivering plenty of power to the subs. I started to build my own box out in my garage, then discovered this one. It's just easier and the specs/parameters match the subs needs. I would suggest this box that fits 8", or a different size box for larger subs through skar. Building your own would sound good, but your parameters won't be identical to what your subs are supposed to be fitted for. And its very well built and very attractive. Skar audio rocks! It is not pre drilled. Be very, very careful.There is not much room for error check and then double check.Before you start screwing anything into it or making a pilot hole. Reccomended screws. Construction, deck or wood self tapping #8 3/4 inch . Find them at any hardware store, and of course amazon.

Great little box.Build quality is really good too.I put two Trinity 8’s in it and it slams.It shakes the car.Skar did a great job on this one and the price is great. car audio shops one, 600 bucks to build one of these boxes. The box is one cube per chamber so you can’t go wrong. It works with a lot of different subs.

The only drawback to this, is neither my Power Bass, or my Polk Audio subs would fit in this box without messing around and trying to find perfect center. I still had to angle one screw per speaker for it to bite. With that said, THAT IS THE ONLY ISSUE! I had bought a used 12 inch box that had ten inch subs in it. The box was pretty good sounding, and with some low bass notes, would readjust my rear view mirror, with my old Memphis 500w monoblock. If it wasn't too big for my car, I'd probably keep it, but instead, I built a sealed enclosure, and s 750w NVX monoblock amp that pushes about 800w RMS to push my newly acquired Polk Audio subs. That box and those subs produced some great, punchy, and smooth bass. I was quite pleased with that setup, but the frequency response was just not where I wanted it to be. Unless it was digitally remastered music, there was no good range. I planned on either building a ported box, or porting the sealed box. I opted for a new box, because if I didn't like it, I wouldn't have to uninstall the ports. I looked, and MDF was at about $70.00 per sheet, then the glue, screws, or nails, the terminal cups, carpet, etc, and I would be spending the same as I would if I bought a new box. So, here we are. I put in "Welcome to the Machine" from Pink Floyd, and the bass readjusted my mirror, at 2/3 gain. I tried some rap, some funk, and some 80s pop, all had great bass resonance and punchy hits. Nothing I played sounded bad! This box fits into the footprint of the old one, but isn't as tall, so it packs more punch while taking up less space. The package arrived 2-4 days early, undamaged, and pre wired, and I am very impressed with its performance. It appears to be pretty well built, anr looks nicer than if I built one myself. It is worth the money, it was easy to install, and is surprisingly lightweight. I recommend this box to anybody. For those complaining of no bass, you need to amplify your subwoofers. If you were expecting fish, you are confused.

Está mal diseñado no encaja para las pulgadas prometidas 12” , porque no especifican las medidas reales del cajón esto evita que uno gaste en importaciones el conector bien , el cable de 12 muy bien , el forro aceptable. Pero no sirve de nada si el modelo de cajón es para subwoofer básicos

Very high quality box, no defects, sturdy and heavy. Connector binding posts are easy to use and cable inside is sufficient for high wattage applications. Box is tuned well, produces a lot of deep bass. Careful with your 12 inch measure and check to make sure it’ll clear the top and bottom cabinet protrusions. 12 inch subwoofer with too large ring will not fit

Excelente cajón de competencia , vale la pena lo que cuesta 👌

Tried other popular prefab boxes and nothing came close to the sound this box offers. Much wider range and bottom end. The cut outs seemed larger and had to take my time lining it up before pre drilling. If your on a budget or don't have the skills to build your own box this is the one for you.

The product is excellent, the seller is excellent, the shipping company however….. came damaged on one of the bottom corners. The seller was quick to respond to my emails, and was a great help in figuring out what to do. I would buy from this seller again. As for the box, it still sounds good despite having some cosmetic damage. Had it came in flawless condition. I would have rated it higher.
