Trunk Walled 12s vs. Sub Up Port Back 15s


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have two Shok industries Big Shok subs that need reconed. I plan to put either 12 or 15 inch AQ baskets and use HDC3 recones for them. If I go with 12s I will do a trunk wall but I don't think I can do a trunk wall in my car with 15s so if I do 15s I think I'll just do a sub up port back box. I drive a 2001 Toyota Camry. I'm just wondering if anyone had any input on this subject on which setup would be the best for SPL. I'm hoping to get around mid 140 dB's.

IMO, do the 12's. Sub up always leads to horrid trunk flex and rattling.

we've been calling them pony walls. but.the opening with the seats folded down is very small. so i think your right as far as 15s are considered. And doing 15s subs up port back is Just begging fir crazy trunk rattle! id do 2 12s in a pony wall

So seal off the trunk? Will that be louder and more clear?

sealing off may or may not be better. but a lot of the time it is better. use cement to seal off the best.
