Is mounting amps to the sub box bad?

[ReggieB]

no need for a brac just mont it on box it will be ok as long as it a solid face

There is a nasty hump on the floor so a raised false floor may be in order. Try to get the amps down there some way. Not to mention room for batts. The amps over head is a cool idea, just not sure I want to get that crazy.

i would do a sheet of wood under the amp.

so box, wood, rubber spacers, then amp

So you are saying like a double baffle? Just for the amps instead of subs? There is an idea. Thanks. Have to keep that in mind.

Hmmm guess I need to move my amp ASAP!

I have no other choice but to mount it on the box

I am thinking the idea of a double baffle for the amps is how I may go. I dont want to overheat my amps under the box.

you should be fine so long as the box doesnt flex

if you can honestly look at it and say to yourself "yea, that definately wont shake whatsoever", you're good, otherwise find an alternative (under the seats, headliner, etc)

I ran into the same issue, and ended up double baffling the sides where the amps were (placed along where the port is so it was braced already) and along the double baffled rear. I was confident no matter how loud it was or how high it was turned up, that part would never move

If you have a large amp with vertical MOSFETs you will kill it just through vibration... snap the legs off the output FETs and then the whole amp goes phut...phut...BOOOOOM...pop pop pop pop.

Yeah, I am thinking that is what I'll do. I think putting three amps under the box would generate too much heat in such a small area.

Buy some of these for cheap off of ebay...

EBAY

Just place like 8 of them under your amp and bolt that sucker to your box

Not trying to be a dick but is that supposed to be a joke or are you serious? Shoe inserts?
