IH8PunkRok Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 I have been trying to figure out a way to do it, but I feel I am chasing a red herring. Is it possible to do an infinite baffle setup in a wagon without making it walled? -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...
MrSkippyJ Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 i dont see why not. do subs up in the cargo area.

Kevin M Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 i don't see why not. do subs up in the cargo area. ...and vent them to the outside. Usually people use the spare tire well. Cut it out and put a mesh grille so no debris can damage the speaker. Bowdown on Diyma has a cool IB setup like that. Dayton has a great IB sub as well as Incriminator Audio Flatlyne series, Fi, and believe it or not the Pyle blue wave. 2005 Ford Focus zx4 AMT's and Planars 18" Infinite baffle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jk13 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 In my first Accord wagon I put three twelves flush in the rear floor. Used 2x4s and mdf and fiberglass to create a box out of the metal floor and framework of the car. Made a hinged baffle with bracing for the woofers and port that replaced the factory access panel/false floor. Amp was actually inside the "enclosure"--that's why it was hinged. Held the baffle down with hood pins and sealed it with double rubber bulb seal from a topper. Ran it that way for four years until we got our new one. Not infinite baffle, just another idea for you. Also plenty of guys have done the dual stealth boxed in the sides in the Magnums--if that's the car your working on. There's also tons of room in the spare tire well for subs and an amp rack in front of it. Why infinite baffle in particular? Static drops are my bag.

I have heard many things about the SQ they bring to the table and I would like to try them Indeed I am working with the magnum and side boxes are an option. Just not really sure what I want to try first -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...
jk13 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 Alright. In my SE-R I ran those same three twelves in an infinite baffle trunk setup. Sounded pretty good but always wanted a little more output. They sounded better and handled more power in the ported box in the wagon. Static drops are my bag.

IH8PunkRok Posted October 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 I've done the ported thing many many times 147 with 2 12s 148.1 with 2 15s Many many others but I get tired of it. I really want something that will blend beautifully with my front stage. If I could make it happen without a sub stage I would, but I haven't figured that one out yet -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...
jk13 Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 Best way to blend with the front stage is to lower the crossover points. I usually only run 50-55Hz and down to the sub depending on how low my fronts can play well. You have a decent front stage setup looking at your sig, let those 7" play down a bit. It seems you have plenty of power to do that with control. Try a sealed box, or if you have a woofer that needs to be ported I usually tune in the low 30s. I don't chase numbers, I've never run more than 1000 watts to a sub stage in my own cars unless I had matching power up front, and I build my stuff for me--windows up rockin. Don't know what your goals are but that's what I found works for my taste. I design front stage first, then a matching sub stage, and finally rear fill if any is needed at all. YMMV.
