Similar companies to Bassworx?

I've gone through a lot of unsuccessful enclosure building, although I must say the sealed box my sub is in right now does sound good. However this box just doesn't seem to do this sub justice...hearing it in a sealed box just makes me want to hear it in a ported box even more. The only thing is I'm tired of going through designs and builds, and I just want to buy a pre-made box. I was checking out the bassworx site and the only 15" enclosures they have are sealed...does anyone know of any other companies that make similar enclosures that may have a better variety for sub sizes? I really want a box from Bassworx's Extreme Gloss line but it's only for 10's and 12's (I've already emailed them) just to give you an idea of what I'm looking for.

Thanks for the help.

It would be fine, but i think building one is much better, if you are tooworiied to do it yourself have someone else do it.
