beatindowndablock247 Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 ok so im doing a new build in my 4 door 2001 cavalier. to start it off i will tell you what i have and the goals i have.. ive got the big 3 done 1 yellow top under the hood one in the back 2 aq2200's and 2 dual 2 ohm solo x 18s. this will not be for comps. just plain loud and low bass... my car has no rear deck no back seats no carpet from drivers seat back.. all metal and opened up.. where the back seat was i can go as wide as 46 inchs and as tall as 36. imbetween the A-pillers and to the rear of the trunk i can go as wide as 35 inches and as tall as 17 inches.. from trunk to my back i can go around 55 inchs.. i have a lot of room as you can see but ive never got it to sound the way i want... any one got suggestions on size and tunning for me.. or stuff like port back subs up which directions would be best.... p.s doing a wall isnt on the menu...

kam311 Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 (edited) I think 2 18 solo x's in the car would definately need to be walled off to have enough airspace Edited September 7, 2011 by kam311 Quote so far...

beatindowndablock247 Posted September 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 im leaning torwards 12 cubes having the subs up and port up.. the subs would be right behind me and the port would be facing up at the back window instaed of the port being inside the trunk..

beatindowndablock247 Posted September 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 I think 2 18 solo x's in the car would definately need to be walled off to have enough airspace Ive done a wall before in this car and couldnt get it to sound good at all. almost felt like it was free air rather then in a wall.. im not sure if i tuned it wrong or if i made it too big Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think a wall should be your loudest option, if done right Ive done a wall before in this car and couldnt get it to sound good at all. almost felt like it was free air rather then in a wall.. im not sure if i tuned it wrong or if i made it too big Quote so far...

beatindowndablock247 Posted September 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 im thinking about it.. i usually use partical board but i always destroy it with my subs.. so i got 3 sheets of birch in the garage for this project.. so if i do another wall and it doesnt sound good thats 45 dollars a sheet down the drain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
