I like the look of the second box, you want to be careful when mounting amps to the sub box, the vibrations can be bad for them.

hi thanks, yea i might mount the amps somewhere else, i just gota find the space :)

thanks i like #2 but i also heard that the port up would be go...

but then again some say that the port back is better. so that why its hard for me to decide.

sub up port back is usually the best way to go

you can mount the amp to the box...i'd just double or triple layer it for protection on the side you're going to mount them to. i have mine mounted to my box, but i have 7 layers of fatmat between the layers. so it does ok :)

nice i didnt think of using fatmat, i might do that then,, im also goin to put 4 12'' electrovoice speakers and 2 15'' electrovoice.. so im going to be creative with this build.. im about 85 % done with the shop list..

i got 1 18'', i got the 2 xx goliaths, i got the 1'' mdf for the build , all the 1/0 cables, terminals, i got the 6 ev speakers, and the ma audio amp for it, and i got the money for either a 260, 280 , or 300 alt from Dom, but im waiting for the group buy..

now all i need is another 18'' solox , a spair black cone for the sub i got now, get the alt installed when i get it// mounted dual ( the stock is 160 amp).. plus i want to get myself a termlab, and i guess a kinetik 2000 for the front.
