BassJunkie Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Just off the top of my head: 1/2" wood and small allthread rod or resin vs just 3/4 (maybe a little more airspace) Polyfill 1986 C20 Suburban 9 American Bass XFL 15's B2 M1MKII 14v XS Power Batteries Maxwell Caps Acoustical energy is free.

jhmeg2 Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 fiberglass enclosure, lest flat = more strength, about a 1/4" thick might work. also, you could build a remote enclosure, and run a tube from it to where the sub is to get the space you need. then you might even be able to go ported. where is it going, vehicle and location ////Alpine, Eclipse, Load Boss, Pheonix Gold, MB Quart,Digital Desings, Memphis, Stinger, Periphial, MTX, Visualogic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IH8PunkRok Posted November 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 how about a kick panel kind of thing thats exactly what im doing and the reason is for sq purposes. i want the bass to be up front with my front stage. and even better it doesnt have to be as loud since its so close -Matt2005 Dodge Magnum RTJVC KD-AVX1 2 PPI S580.2 Obsidian Audio ST1 Horn Tweeters PRV 8MB450s Audio Legion 3500.1D 2 RE MT 18s 360 ah LiFePO4 BatterySHCA 2/0 155.2 @ 29 hzKicker CVR 15's buildDD 3512e buildMini T-Line Build(6) 8s BuildNightshade 15s Wall BuildMagnum AB XFL 12s BuildNewest Magnum Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhmeg2 Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 I did a 8" passenger kick in my truck, worked great, you could also go behind the glove bax. or if your nor against cutting, maybe a small enclosure under car, and floor as baffle ////Alpine, Eclipse, Load Boss, Pheonix Gold, MB Quart,Digital Desings, Memphis, Stinger, Periphial, MTX, Visualogic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
