purplesyrup Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 (edited) lol I would imagine the power handling would go down due to cooling issues, hard to say how it would sound until you try it, the results will probably be similar to a castration Edited July 4, 2012 by purplesyrup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrionStang Posted July 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 How much room do you have to work with Ken? Maybe an aero port to save volume? I haven't measured, but by eyeballing, I'm not sure there's even 12" from the back seat to the hatch. I will measure when the wife gets home from work.

Quiet Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 If the box seems small, stuff it with polyfill. Slows the waves and acts like a bigger box. Also if you're concerned about thermal power handling, just invert the sub if you can. Quote 2007 Pacifica Rebuild. Less quiet. Still not loud.

Quiet Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 It'd be a shame to smoke the coils too Quote 2007 Pacifica Rebuild. Less quiet. Still not loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrionStang Posted July 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 Coils won't smoke on rms power. I can do a 1cu ft box driver side hatch area, sub facing passenger side. Without taking up too much of the cargo area. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RooTxBeeR Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 (edited) mah bad den. just try it then. My experience with sealed is muddy bass when you really drive it hard, and your lowz disappear. If you want small, get a smaller sub and build a decent box for it IMO You obviously have never heard a good sealed box. Check out Berlow7 on youtube, 4 Autotek 15's in a sealed wall doing 150.1DB at 26Hz. He played rack city in his car when i heard it, and that shit was tearing my ear apart. Along with that, Thescottishbear on here had 3 18's walled in his malibu and it had no problem getting low.

SnowDrifter Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 Its a sealed box.
