I have two soundqubed HTC3 15's going in my suburban. I have a 5 ft vented box from atrend boxes that's build for my subs. Would my subs be louder facing up or back.

i believe for most SUV's the common consensus is subs up port back for loudest, and from there, move the enclosure forward and backwards from the rear hatch to find where it's loudest to you.

PS, they don't have HTC's, just HDS and HDC. Sorry, it was bugging me a little :)

Your right on the HDC lol. My port and subs face the same way.

Also you'll most likely get better output if you build, or have someone else build you a custom box for your application. Those prefab boxes are often to small and tuned to high.

5cubes for two 15s is wayyyy to small... You need a big box like this.

Agreed about the enclosure. I ran my HDS312's in a prefab that was 3.xx cubic feet for a few years, and just recently built an enclosure for them that comes out to 5.11 cubic feet net, tuned to 28hz, and the difference in output is night and day. I thought it was good with the prefab, not having experienced them in a custom, but after building my own, I won't do a prefab ever again

I bout the atrend box because they build boxes for soundqubed. The box I have is 5 cube ft net and tuned to 40 Hz. But I bout it so I can beat now.

Take one sub out and plug the hole and it will prly be louder with just one woofer in 5cubes then two being suffocated.
