briansh73 Posted July 24, 2009 Report Posted July 24, 2009 (edited) I have a 2008 HHR SS and want to put four 12" shallow mount Premiers in it. I know that shallow mounts might not hit as low as regular subs, but when I bought them I had an idea of doing a false floor. Anyway, the subs say that they only need a maximum of 1 cube per sub and .8 cubes recommended. Is that big enough? Anybody got any ideas for an enclousre. I don't want to wall it, as I would like to keep some of my storage space. I would also like for the subs to be hidden, or out of view if possible. Area to work with is only 37" wide, 24" deep and 15" high. would it be possible to face the subs toward each other like the PT cruiser on here? First post and new to this so please be nice. I have several amps available, but would like to run my Hifonics 2010D at 1 ohm, if yall think that is enough power. Edited July 24, 2009 by briansh73 Quote
BLuejoules Posted July 24, 2009 Report Posted July 24, 2009 Do you want sealed or ported? Quote IG: devinthydude
briansh73 Posted July 24, 2009 Author Report Posted July 24, 2009 Either way, I'm open. Sub paperwork says same size for ported or sealed. Do you want sealed or ported? Quote
BLuejoules Posted July 24, 2009 Report Posted July 24, 2009 Do you know the mounting depth of those subs? Quote IG: devinthydude

briansh73 Posted July 24, 2009 Author Report Posted July 24, 2009 They are the Premier 1241D's and only need a mounting depth of 3 1/4". Do you know the mounting depth of those subs? Quote
briansh73 Posted July 24, 2009 Author Report Posted July 24, 2009 You were too fast. Beat me to it. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_16662_...S-SW1201S4.htmltop mount depth is 3-1/4" Quote
briansh73 Posted July 24, 2009 Author Report Posted July 24, 2009 I'm really looking for a cool design. I really don't want a plain rectangle box sitting back there. But, I have never worked with fiberglass and don't want to learn with a big project. Plus I've seen some really cool mdf enclosures on here. Quote
BLuejoules Posted July 24, 2009 Report Posted July 24, 2009 (edited) If you dont want the subs to be visible I would make a downfire enclosure. A box that was 37 x 24 x 9 would get you 3.4 cubes, and you would still have good storage space. with some beauty panels around the box you could make it look like a raised floor Edited July 24, 2009 by BLuejoules Quote IG: devinthydude
briansh73 Posted July 24, 2009 Author Report Posted July 24, 2009 Thanks. I have a sketchup that I did a few days ago. How do I post the Jpg?
