Is it recommended or ok to mount the amp to the sub box itself?

But it's not the first time I've heard of this from higher powered amps.

all my amps except for 1 broke the fets driving from san mateo to calgary, just from vibration.
i'll mod them all when i repair them.

IMO, the best place would be the spot where the amp can get the most air flow and still be easily reached should you need to make any adjustments or change anything out. Of course, that varies from car to car so it's hard to say. When I did my install I put my amps where I thought they'd look the best, and while I accomplished that goal it proved to be a less than ideal spot for numerous reasons. So the moral of the story is, try different spots until you settle on one that has more pro's than con's.
