i wish i had that much trunk!

between my box, amps and socket set I have enough room for the oil i just bought....And it doesnt even get that loud :C
Nice work, get a deal on the kickers i take it?
05-09-2010
yeah awesome deal $75 for both NIB. it hits nice, I need to upgrade my other speakers yet.

Heh, I actually had to trash my sub box due to lack of room, so now I have an open enclosure (paradox I know) which actually hits harder now. I've got 2 12's facing at an angle pointing into the little pass-through in the back seat. No carpet, wires are everywhere, amp is sitting in a corner.
Guess I should finish it one day....
Nice box btw.

cancellation is interesting when you try that arrangement.
define this "open enclosure" i'm willing to bet it has another name.
$75 for those two is a pretty good deal.

Well I have a wife to answer to so being its the only car ATM i can't do a big system, the 10" subs is a decent compromise between mywife's love of trunk space for shopping and my want of some boom, lol

Matt, there is some cancellation, but nothing terrible. I ended up taking the fold down seat/armrest thingy out of the car entirely. The woofers are facing at about a 45degree angle inward. The "box" is shaped somewhat like a "V" , but the bottom of the "V" doesnt come to a point, it's got a small spacer to keep the 2 panels held together, sorta like a "U"...little hard to describe.
All together, it barely takes up any room, and gives me a nice deep thump.

di-pole?
you're still not describing it enough, PICTURES

Dammit, if I could I would, I'm not at my place, so no camera. I will try to get some of its' ghetto-ness. Basically, it's 3 pieces, and almost looks like a right-angle. \_/ Alot like that...
05-09-2010
True, almost like the inner mouth of a tapped horn.
05-09-2010
Kinda of, like I said, i'll get some pics up eventually, I've got a long shift tomorrow at work, and I really need to carpet the 'box'...I dont wanna get all embarrassed on the internet..
The woofers give a nice deep thump, which is what I was looking for.

your talking about a baffle set up
05-09-2010
baffle setup and open enclosure are both terms that mean nothing because they're not real enclosures.
Di pole is a real setup and its typically speakers mounted on a baffle then placed in a certain spot in the room so that you get decent bass.
05-09-2010
Well, that's true, it's not an enclosure, it's open. I don't really care to have a competition setup, I like my cheap woofers and cheap amp. =]
