Picking up our OBX tomorrow I ordered and on the sticker it said:
1. AM/FM, 6 SPKRS, SDARS what does that mean?
2. How can I get HD radio?
Thanks

That's what I have. FYI, the grill with the grill ring from Audiofrog will not fit as is on the SSV pods.

I removed the grill from the rings and added small dots of epoxy to secure them in place. Looks fine and is not noticeable ... if you want to use the grills.
@vicorjh Do you have a picture of what this looks like?

I did end-up placing a small bead of black colored plastic compatible epoxy around the entire circumference of the grill as opposed to a couple of spots. Prepped and lightly scuffed up the plastic a bit for adhesion. With small dots, there was some resonance experienced at volume in certain frequency bands.

Also, in my case, I added some epoxy to the interior walls to stiffen up the enclosure along with a thin layer of closed cell foam. The plastic is thin particularly on the back side. I feel that helped to damp the enclosure quite a bit.
