Holy Crap, this is going to be great


With christmas coming around I think that it is finally time to get the old stereo built. First thing I am going to purchase is the bass. Here was my idea. Instead of the hatch space being filled, I was wondering have any of you ripped out the back seats and set like two single 15's on each seat, or maybe 18's. This is what I want to do but I was wondering how big I could go right there. I don't want anything custom just a couple of truck boxes on each side. I think this would be ok. YOu know make it look factory with some nice matching carpet. Sweet, I want to go with 15" RF Power DVC's for the subs. Now only an amp, Oh christ.

Putting subs in the middle of the car doesn't allow it to take advantage of the transfer function. I saw a 4th gen hit 145dB with 4 15" JLs on a wall right behind the back seat. I hit 141 with 2 12's in the back. I also experimented with a single 10" and moved it all around my car, and the output was much better when it was in the well.
