Garrett Wells Posted June 28, 2016 Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 I'm planning on building a sealed box for my SSA G-CON 15. Before I plan the box I need to figure out which way a want to face the woofer and where I want to put the box in my trunk. My Jeep is an SUV obviously and therefore doesn't have a separated trunk. From what I gather, my best option is to have the woofer toward the liftgate and very close to the liftgate. It would be most convenient for me to place it flush with the back seats so I have space. It would also be cool to put my driver side back seat down and have the woofer fire toward me, but in another thread I was told that wouldn't sound good unless I had the box sealed off from the space behind it. Also I want to avoid rattling (I plan on getting Dynamat at a later date). Any help will be appreciated, My emphasis is on SQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Lightning Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 You didn't get a good recommendation from SSA ??? Also ... if your emphasis is on SQ, why are you starting with sub bass and not stage and image ???

shogen Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 basically all that... your best bet is get front stage sorted and worry about the sub later... if you're using a sealed box just throw it anywhere and play with positions until it hits most of your requests... test and play.... its fun and informative at the same damn time... lol I'm planning on building a sealed box for my SSA G-CON 15.

Evilthx Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 If it's deep enough, an enclosure under that spare tire cover or a fiberglass enclosure off to either side wall.

White Lightning Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 Not a bad idea at all ... for something smaller than a 15" driver. Simple rectangle (optimal airspace) sealed for that Gcon would be ideal. Kenwood / HELIX / Linear Power (For The Love Of Music) / Brutal Sounds / OverKill Electric Co Questions About Sound Quality ??

Soccerballzs Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 I run sub facing up and port facing back in my Commander.
