Hunters21w Posted September 24, 2009 Report Posted September 24, 2009 I might have asked this not too long ago but now I really want to know which way would sound the best in a trunk. Wish I could have an endless supply of mdf and test it, but I don't. Don't have money to buy any deadener at the moment, so which would keep all the bass in the car the best? Also, if you had a plexi window for a side of the box, would it sound the same as mdf? thanks Quote 06 Police TahoeHU- Pioneer 80prsAmp- Crossfire 8kSub- 4 15" Crossfire xs v2sWire- 1/0 Knu/AudiotechnixAlt- 3 Mechman SMD 340sBatts- 6 XS Power 3100s, 2400

Hunters21w Posted September 24, 2009 Author Report Posted September 24, 2009 What exactly do you mean by through the rear deck. Would I have to have a hole in the rear deck for this to be efficient? Also, my seats don't fold down but I do have a little armrest that does. any ideas?

Hunters21w Posted September 24, 2009 Author Report Posted September 24, 2009 What would be second best so that I wouldn't have to chop up my car? I liked that idea but I just can't cut up my car, sorry. any other ideas?

hondaonchrome Posted September 24, 2009 Report Posted September 24, 2009 Then just keep it simple.....subs towards rear with the port towards the rear.Just get the deadner for the license plate. Quote
Hunters21w Posted September 24, 2009 Author Report Posted September 24, 2009 Sounds reasonable to me. It was basicly between that or facing them up. My trunk doesnt rattle too much so either works for me. Anyone try pvc as aeros?

Anyone try pvc as aeros? I have, works well. There's a calculator for round port length on the12volt (dot) com you can use. Quote Too many projects, too little time...
k3n12ock Posted September 24, 2009 Report Posted September 24, 2009 Sub and port rear. I heard sub up in a trunk isnt good but personally, I've never done it like that.

Hunters21w Posted September 24, 2009 Author Report Posted September 24, 2009 Alright so subs back seems the most efficient. Any advice on using pvc or is it pretty basic?
