Infinite Baffle - will this work?


Recommended Posts

Ok so I have seats that fold down with a ski hole. If i build a floating baffle behind my seats and center a 15" woofer in an IB fashion, will it work with JUST the ski hole open at all times. I do not want to fold the seats down. I realize sets down will likely be better, but the question is will the ski hole open be ok. Or will i have be trapping too many waves between the floating baffle and seat backs? Bolting baffle to rear seats is not an option here.

That would act like a 4th order.

Sealed side behind the baffle to the trunk.

Vented side to the front using the ski hole as the port.

Do the math, might work. Plan on a lot of deadening and sealing in front and behind. Won't be as good as an actual enclosure.

Floating? It would have to be solidly mounted to something and sealed so the front wave doesn't meet the back wave. Will it work? Sure we used to do these installs back in the day when free air woofers came out. Will it be better than a box? No. What ever speakers are in your rear deck are going to get worked over. But I'm sure it will do something.

Bottom line if the ski hole opening is smaller than the cone area of the sub--no, it won't act as an IB. See my post above.

I'm beginning to feel like the world is against you having bass in this vehicle.

"Nothing prevents people from knowing the truth more than the belief they already know it."
