mmotux Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 So I have some pictures of the way my sub enclosure is positioned and was wondering what I should do to make it better? Should I put a MDF board behind the wood so the sound is bouncing off that instead of the seat? Should I put the subs closer to the seat or futher? Just curious. http://postimg.org/image/f6rlekaax/ http://postimg.org/image/esq9eyq7d/ http://postimg.org/image/lhwsuzbjd/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skullz Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Build a better enclosure, there is really nothing you can do to that box to help it be better than it already is. This is one of those where you need to build and try different things to see what will and will not work, there is just no way around it. 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kind of enclosure would you recomend for this kind of truck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jarrius Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Remove the seat in the back and build a ported box for it IMO. Do subs up and port to the bpiller. I had the 10in version of those subs and they sounded great in a sealed box. Never treys them in a ported one tho before I sold them to get my hdc3. 2012 Chevy sonic1xSQ HDC3 12 D2RF R1200d 140 square foot of Q-Mat(soon to be installed) 140.2Db sealed on the dash with TL 142 DB sealed on the dash with another meter (was dead on with the TL at a show i was at) 141 on music. strangeduck,on 02 Jan 2014 - 01:39 AM, said: when my car spins out i just put the car in neutral, turn in the direction i want to go and pucker my asshole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think adding a peice of MDF along my back seat would make it louder? Instead of taking my seat out for now? So it isnt firing against the cushion but the MDF instead?

oldsoundguy Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I would aim the sub forward. When I had a sealed box that was best for me. Now that I have a ported then its sub up port up.
