Robert8252 Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 Leave it facing the rear. Takes quite a bit of work to get it sealed off right and isn't something to just take out in a day to redo. But I would slide the box farther back. Maybe 3-4 inches from the trunk back. Gives the subs more airspace between the back seat to build up better pressure. It will be louder just by moving it back Quote 2013 F150 Crew Cab Old Build Log Feedback 2013 F150 Equipment - Some Awesome Stereo Sound Making Stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be louder just by moving it back when I move my sub box closer to the trunk it gets louder(facing the trunk obviously) Quote 2004 Volkswagen GLI 1 10" Skar VVX ^^^ Looking for an amp to run it, Pm me if you have one ^^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel4055 Posted October 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 (edited) Leave it facing the rear. Takes quite a bit of work to get it sealed off right and isn't something to just take out in a day to redo. But I would slide the box farther back. Maybe 3-4 inches from the trunk back. Gives the subs more airspace between the back seat to build up better pressure. It will be louder just by moving it back Not for sure if I'm able to move it back that far because of the trunk bars are right above the amp so they kinda bump into the amp. As you can see the gray bars that run right above the amp. If I could mingle with the bars a bit I can slide it back. Edited October 19, 2010 by Rebel4055 Quote Rest In Peace mother.

Robert8252 Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 No. You want it closest to the trunk not the seat. So when you open the trunk. BAM there's the box with really no space in front of the speakers Quote 2013 F150 Crew Cab Old Build Log Feedback 2013 F150 Equipment - Some Awesome Stereo Sound Making Stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert8252 Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 Yup. Not all the way against it but damn close. Quote 2013 F150 Crew Cab Old Build Log Feedback 2013 F150 Equipment - Some Awesome Stereo Sound Making Stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedball1978 Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 from my experience dealing with sub box directional firing, i've done every trick in the book except for the sealing off/wall type set up. The loudest and cleanest bass output was subs up port towards the back seat with seats folded down, it made a huge difference in output level and clarity. give it a shot but you'll have to build another box for that to hear the difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel4055 Posted October 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 Also found out it gets louder with 1 or both doors open. Quote Rest In Peace mother.
