  1. I'm overkilling the piss out of my electrical. I'll be running 6 135aH batts on 3.5K for now to later upgrade to 7K down the line. Reserve is a good thing if you plan on running demos.

    Cap bank if you want stiff voltage. Look up BlackNasty or SnowDrifter on here and check out their banks. Autocorrect almost changed banks to balls. That would have had quite a different meaning....

  2. Say no to back seat boxes, yikes!.

    I doubt you'll get any real design advice for this, as it is completely NOT ideal and will likely not sound very good at all. Get 2 12s, put them in the trunk where they belong. Orrr, buy two more XLs and wall the car.

    Walling is not my honest suggestion, putting the subs in the proper location is. Back seat boxes are no good, and I'll just about guarantee you'd be louder out of the trunk(assuming seats fold down) with 2 12s of the same brand and model, vs 2 15s in an "on the seat" enclosure.

  3. Except for the fact that there is a poi t of diminishing return from being so thick. It's happened more than once that someone does a super thick baffle and has issues keeping woofers together. That doesn't look like it's all a full baffle anyways. More like 3or 4 layers around the baffle in a trim

    Yeah N8 is correct. It was 4 layers of 1" MDF. I'm not sure who decided that was needed for 4 DC Level 4s but that's what it got. The fiberglass around the baffle was done really well.

    Thats the back of my head you see peaking into the port. The part that bothered me was that there was that monster port firing right at the tailgate(it's a mid 70s K5 Blazer), and there is literally 1-2" of clearance between the port and the gate. It surprisingly still sounded good, but tuning was unknown.

  4. Crap, I forgot to get you the port extension measurements. I just ran the numbers really quick and the piece going parallel with that box sides should 10" by the height listed. The extension that runs parallel with the back of the box is 18" by the internal box height as well which is 14.5". The total port length is 34" and is measured from the center of the port line.

    I'M not sure if you got this built yet or not but let me know if you need anymore help.

  5. Id choose the two 6" port option for(usually) ease of tuning and not needing such a damn long port.

    I actually just looked it up. For the 9" port, in 5 cubes net, tuned to 32 Hz, you'd need it to be just at 27"

    That's actually pretty comparable to the length on the two 6" options. If the 9"er is easier for this specific build, let er rip man. Should be really cool looking and since its metal, paint is easy
