What is the best way to have subs in the trunk? I have a coupe and my two twelves take up to much room. What is the best box to make the most bass and save the most space? Right now I have no trunk and my box is so heavy it is like having another person in the trunk.

It really depends on the sub. Sealed enclosures are usually a tighter punchy bass and also can take more power because the sealed box helps control cone movement. Ported hit harder but can sound a little "muddy" compared to sealed. Also ported boxes are tuned to a certain freq. below it their output drops off. Bandpass boxes are a combination of sealed and ported. They are tuned to a freq. range and produce the most bang for the buck in that range above or below that range and you get pretty much nothing. But to get the extra output you pay the price in size. Bandpass enclosures can be really big. You need to listen to the different kinds and decide what sounds good too you. Then you can have someone design an enclosure based on your subs. Since size is a concern a sealed enclosure is probably the way too go. Personally I have a single 12" Kicker Solobaric in a small sealed enclosure. I think the internal volume is like .88 cubic feet. I'm using a true 500watts rms and most people think it sounds good. It's not overpowering unless you really turn it up but even then it's loud but still clean. |
