facing forward doesnt rattle very much, if at all.

facing back is like RATTLE CITY CHICK.

trunk cars are the worst. best thing to do for minimal rattle, is fire forward with the box all the way pushed back to the trunk.

or sealed firing forward.

but by all means, you can test it out for yourself

It's not very loud, and not optimal. most of the energy from the sub goes into flexing the trunk lid rather than in the cabin

Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs.

More box builds

some cars do over 170db with one sub, so clearly my two 12"s can do that in my car, with my knowledge too! look out bitches!

I'm with captain stupid.

I couldn't tell a difference between firing up and firing forward, both rattled alot, but mine isn't 100% sealed off. I put foam all the way around my trunk lid and it help alot.
