DBz Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Alrite about to buy my 15 tomorrow. I wanna try and keep it a trunk setup, sub forward port forward (sealed around). Should I invert the sub to eliminate displacement by the sub inside the box? Also its going to be in a civic, I was thinkin 34-36 hz tuning? I'd appreciate some input.

55437Audio Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 My input is 34-36 is exactly what I like. Inverting is not something I know much about. But as far as I know. The only thing you gain is less the displacement like you said.

Cause I know a 15 in a civic trunk would probably require to build the box INSIDE the trunk right?

I'm just getting 1 Level 5 instead.

55437Audio Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Well to get the most out of your trunk yes and to get what air space you need I'm almost possative you would "want" to build it in.

iKidwell Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 i wouldn't really invert unless you had to, with the sub forward your box would have to be further back in your trunk and the motor would be on the back of your seats, no real problem i guess, just seems awkward to me. Quote c'mon now, if i was shooting an 8 year old, it wouldnt be MY 8 year old. i recently got a Pyle PL1590BL and i was building an enclosure for it tuned to 25 hz. i didn't have any tools to cut a circle so i hit it with a big hammer. 2003 Infiniti G35 Sport Sedan Build in Progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
55437Audio Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Maybe I understood it wron but if he inverted he wouldn't keep the back seat in...? There for the magnet rly wouldn't be against anything. Right?

Well, I don't even have backseats anymore lolz. So the motor hitting my backseats shouldn't be a problem lol. I'm just saying invert for more airspace in the box without having to worry about sub displacement. it would be port forward towards the cabin sealed around the edges.

Team_DC-Derrick Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 if you dont have a back seat anymore why not wall the thing?
