FlexIssues Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 I recently got the bug to wall .. however.. I have a hatch. I have always been hearing the " oh you have a hatch.. do subs up port back " and that's what i've always done. Would walling be more benefitial in a 2 door hatchback then subs up and port back like i've always heard? What would this be dependant on? Sub Size? Power Used? Or just because it's a hatch.. better to do it one way or the other? I'm hoping it's more personal preference as i'm wanting to wall if all possible, but I do have this feeling to stick to what i've always been told. I needed to ask the guys at SMD for some advice appreciate any that is given. info, will be using 2 18s, roughly 1k power to both on temporary amp until I get my taxes back... so nothing huge yet.

FlexIssues Posted February 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 wall it! yes that is usually true that hatch backs get loud with subs up port back but that would never compare to a wall. I am quite excited to try a wall, i've never done it before. wishing I lived closer to someone who has had experience in doing them really, no one here is into it anymore than buy prefab for two 12s.. sony amp and blow out windshield story. lol I just shake my head and say " yea... wow that's cool " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlexIssues Posted February 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 also, falsefloor probably a must on this as well? not sure how else to keep the box from flying forward unless it was bolted down lol so im assuming yes. Anyone else have any input? I plan to keep this setup from now on, 2 18s and very low tuned wall/box pending on people's input on the wall vs. hatchback sub up port back idea.

FlexIssues Posted February 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 Yes false floor and i would also bolt the wall to the car. going to look more into it, see what others have done, I can't recall actually seeing many people's buildlogs showing how they "stabilise" their own.
