1992Chevy K1500 Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 I'd say up top in the middle. But that's just me.

bkolfo4 Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Daily "loud", or meter loud? Daily loud - vertical port in the middle, subs on each side Meter loud - vertical port driver's side Quote Current system: 1997 Blazer - (4) Customer Fi NEO subs with (8) American Bass Elite 2800.1s Previous systems: 2000 Suburban - (4) BTL 15's and (4) IA 40.1's = 157.7 dB at 37 Hz. 1992 Astro Van - (6) BTL 15's and (6) IA 40.1's = 159.7 dB at 43 Hz.

OBI Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Might be wrong but I remember reading somewhere saying its loudest to the ear if the port is on the passenger's side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z71kris Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 I would think it would meter louder on the drivers side..

Eric B Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 usually when u put the port on the drivers side it will be quieter on the drivers side and louder on the passenger side.. hints to why its better on the meter that way.. teammates old wall was a 7db difference from driver side to passenger side Quote 2007 Chevy HHR LT UNDER CONSTRUCTION 1st Place Loud N Low 2010 MWSPL Finals 3rd Place Xtreme 3 2010 MWSPL Finals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
