Not to mention having that sub aiming at your ear won't do much for bass. Sure it may sound okay like that but without a sounding surface in front of that sub it's efficiency is all but cut in half.

That box looks great. I had to cut and paste the links to see the pics but you did a good job.

Try making the images smaller, then re uploading them. I'm not sure why they didn't load onto the post but they are viewable.

Mine looks most like this one. It's a .70 cubic foot box with an old 10w6 I had. It sounds good, but takes up too much room. The box is only 6" thick, but that's enough to prevent the tops from fitting. It's also 12" tall, which meant I had to take the window tray out, so that doesn't fit either. I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet, but this is a little too intrusive.

Anyway, I'll soon be running the same system I just took out of the '98. It's a High Current "MA audio" Competition Series Amp, and a pair of 12" Pioneer Premier Subs. I know the amp will fit perfectly across the back wall, and if I decide to go ahead and run this box, it WILL actually fit. I just won't have any room for my T-tops.

Obviously I'd like to come up with something smaller that would accomodate these subs,...the only problem is, I need about 1.25 cu ft of air space per sub. I guess I could always just leave the tops in the garage since I don't do much out of town driving in this one. (For obvious reasons)

Hey celeryman do you have build specs of this set up? This is exactly what I am looking for and any help you could offer would be great.

Thanks
