OrionStang Posted February 12, 2013 Report Posted February 12, 2013 My Mustang only gained ,2 dbs sealing off. I say do 2 10's facing forward, but with the box pushed as far back in teh trunk as possible. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread
SoImVan Posted February 12, 2013 Author Report Posted February 12, 2013 I know you said facing the subs up was not an option, but what if I just used alot of deadening in the trunk?
Joe X Posted February 12, 2013 Report Posted February 12, 2013 I know you said facing the subs up was not an option, but what if I just used alot of deadening in the trunk? Is not just about rattling, you lose output firing up, so just some 10's, you can go with higher power/ high displacement subs, and it can get really really loud.
SoImVan Posted February 13, 2013 Author Report Posted February 13, 2013 Just wondering, why would they lose output?
vetkilr01 Posted February 13, 2013 Report Posted February 13, 2013 I know you said facing the subs up was not an option, but what if I just used alot of deadening in the trunk? Sub facing up=terrible in a mustang. You can do 12's in that truck no problem... I put a 15: tall box feed through the rear seat with minimum cutting/bending on the metal. 13 1/2 in tall can almost slide through no issues. Take out passenger seat, take out back seat, take off the cover bolted on the front of the trunk opening...slide in box. I had so many boxes in my 04 Cobra it aint even funny. My loudest was a DMX 15" face back ported to driver's side. Also have heard two 10's faced forward ported and sealed off that rocked, so your preference but you don't have to build in trunk.
SoImVan Posted April 14, 2013 Author Report Posted April 14, 2013 Forward sealed off or backwards port in the baffle like the above are most common and usually effective configurations. So yes you can fire forward. Hey Joe. I got this box built today and I'm about to cut the holes for the subs in the box. I've decided I'm taking out the back seats and putting the box there. Will it matter which way the subs are mounted? Will it affect the tuning or sound if I face them up?

The only thing I would do in the cabin of a trunk car would be a wall to expect good results, or I would do a box inside the trunk, if you are placing the box in the cabin removing the backseat I would say do some experiments to see what you like better but I wouldn't expect any great results from that kind of setup. I would have preferred to do a box of the right dimensions inside the trunk.
moegej Posted April 14, 2013 Report Posted April 14, 2013 my 06 can only fit a 11in tall box through the front of the trunk. i was gonna do 12's til i realized that that just wasnt gonna work. so im planning on doing sundowns new x10's. im interested to see how your setup works out. 06 v6 Mustangbig 3Mechman 270 Hybrid G2 interstate batteriesBC3500 wired at 12 Sundown x-10 D4's
