HondaChad Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) Is it worth it? I had my back seat out for the install of my system, now that I've put my seat back in I'm trying to decide whether I want to take the back of the back seat out again, simply because the bass being muffled behind 4 inches of thick foam padding sounds like crap and just makes my trunk rattle even harder because the air has no where to go.. So in my 1999 toyota corolla Should I? Port my back deck, or just take my back seat out so theres a 2foot by 1 1/2 foot space for air to come through I don't compete I just have a little system I like listening to, and when I crank it up, I want it to boom. also.. I would like to keep my back seat in for the occasional time or two a month when more than one friend rides with me, so that they don't have to lean back on metal Edited March 15, 2012 by HondaChad Quote 1 '12 Massive Audio TORO 124 powered by a Rockford Fosgate Power 500a2 (pushes around 705 watts @ 2ohms) Orion Xtreme 500.4 powering Orion HCCA Competition 6s component set w/ tweeters and MB Quart component set w/ tweeters Kenwood KDC-348U Head Unit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HondaChad Posted March 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 your rear seat doesnt fold down? Nope, it has 3 hook type things that hook onto the top of the back, and then 3 more on the bottom that are bolted down also If it folded down I would just fold it down and let it stay down until someone wants to ride in the back, lol, Quote 1 '12 Massive Audio TORO 124 powered by a Rockford Fosgate Power 500a2 (pushes around 705 watts @ 2ohms) Orion Xtreme 500.4 powering Orion HCCA Competition 6s component set w/ tweeters and MB Quart component set w/ tweeters Kenwood KDC-348U Head Unit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprkn_ranger Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 What about porting it inbetween the seats? Just an idea. But if your gonna do either, I think the best way is to bild a 4th order and port through the rear deck. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

HondaChad Posted March 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 the back seat is two big pieces, one for the actual seat, and one for the back piece for the seat, might be 1/32nd of an inch of air coming through it, if any due to the foam padding of the back seat being so thick. I guess this is a stupid question but what's a 4th order? lol Quote 1 '12 Massive Audio TORO 124 powered by a Rockford Fosgate Power 500a2 (pushes around 705 watts @ 2ohms) Orion Xtreme 500.4 powering Orion HCCA Competition 6s component set w/ tweeters and MB Quart component set w/ tweeters Kenwood KDC-348U Head Unit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The also assisting in making a sub louder. However, in my opinion can sound "muddy" and undesirable.
