zachfowler222 Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 (edited) alright well im in the process of rebuilding and my subs arnt gonna be here for about a week i thought they would be here sooner but oh well .....anyways so instead of riding around with NO MUSIC AT ALL(i went without any radio no door speakers nothing! for about 4 days and i couldnt take it!) so since my back seat was already out any the car was tore apart so i just cut a platform out of mdf and put my old box in on top of that in place of my backseat(so i can still work in the trunk and have some music while driving) i put the box the same way as it was in my trunk all 4 12s facing up, my problem is that it seems about 1/2 as loud as it was in my trunk. why would it be quieter in the cabin of the car? is it because its taking longer for the sound waves to hit against something? in my trunk the waves had to go about 6 inches and now they have to go about 30 or 40 inches until they can make contact with something. could that be way it doesnt seem as loud? also when it was in my trunk the windshield would flex and no it doesnt even move really, my alarm antenna does hit against the window like it did...........so i know its just not in my head lol what way would u guys think it would get loudest? facing the back window(like a wall) or facing forward wall? or facing it to driver or passenger side im not gonna go thru and seal it all off or anything because its only gonna be like that for about a week or so thanks guys Edited January 2, 2011 by zachfowler222 Quote I SCAM PEOPLE OUT OF MONEY...

korey_hofer Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 because it doesn't have room to breath back seat boxes tend to suck Quote previously known as wenn_du_weinst aka fucking internet coward supreme.

zachfowler222 Posted January 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 because it doesn't have room to breath back seat boxes tend to suck im not saying your wrong at all but how would it not have room to breath its the same box as the trunk and has move space for air to flow above it and all around it in my trunk the side were about 2 inches from the box and 6 inches from the top of the trunk and now its about 30 to 40 inches from the roof and there is about 5 inches on boh sides of the box Quote I SCAM PEOPLE OUT OF MONEY...

korey_hofer Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 it's much closer to your ears, no time for waves to mature, so they bounce back sooner and cancel out because one set is 180 out of phase. also in the trunk you have stuff to load off of, in the back seat you don't Quote previously known as wenn_du_weinst aka fucking internet coward supreme.

korey_hofer Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 you could try facing backward that will change the phasing and make it take longer for waves to reach front Quote previously known as wenn_du_weinst aka fucking internet coward supreme.

mxman38 Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 (edited) maturity of sound waves.... Acoustics are mind blowing, i dont get it still but i tend not to question it. Y are my 2 15's 4 db louder than my 4 walled of twice the power? because i suck at life, or cabin space etc. Edited January 2, 2011 by mxman38 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zachfowler222 Posted January 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 thanks guys now this is making me think my next build is gonna be shitty cuz im planning to have the box sealed off from the trunk and port thru the rear deck, or would since the port is firing right into the back window it would be pretty good?

korey_hofer Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 loads off rear window so usually does pretty well that way Quote previously known as wenn_du_weinst aka fucking internet coward supreme.
