snafu Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 (edited) unless he has plenty of sound deadner that trunk is rattling something crazy!!! my 12's rattle the shit utta my trunk and they are in the passenger seat. Actually, it doesn't rattle so much as to "breathe". The trunk lid (and whole rear of the car for that matter) bellows a bunch - so much that it demolished the mounting tabs for the rear wing. Although the trunk behaves in this fashion, it doesn't seem to hurt output all that much. The basic principal behind infinite baffle is that the enclosure in which the woofer(s) are mounted has a volume that exceeds the woofer(s) Vas. In this case, that really isn't so - I can't remember, but I think I've got about half as much volume in the trunk as would be necessary to achieve that. I think this is the main reason that output isn't really compromised - as the enclosure volume increases slightly when this occurs. We've sat on the trunk lid in an effort to see what kind of an effect stabilizing the trunk lid had on output and it seems to be irrelevant. Either way, whatever noise this creates on the outside of the vehicle is inaudible from the inside. Seems that the 'stang's resonant frequency is about 23 Hz. At 23 Hz on my hand-held OSC-2, I can cause the roof, hood, doors, sides, etc. of the vehicle to move substantially. The front end of the car will resonate so much that you can't actually see the antenna! We figured that out when we were trying to hunt down the source of the whistling from the front of the car and we noticed that it was the antenna "howling" from this! I need to capture that on video, huh? Thanks for all the comments. I've had a bunch of systems in my time and I always try and come up with something unique. 18s in a Mustang GT just sounded like . . . huh? I just think of all the kids that have seen it over the last three years that tell their buddies, "dude, this guy had EIGHTEENS in his 'stang AND his back seat AND his spare tire . . . " and their buddy looks at them like . . . "right" . . . Plus, my first BIG system back in the day was a 1984 Mustang GT with a pair of 18s . . .
