About to order sub and box..
I'm about to order the JL Audio 10W1v2-4 sub, but I want to make sure the ZEnclosure box will work efficiently with it.. I would be getting the corner mount sub box, here.

Crap.... what is reverse mounting?
And does that just mean the sub is too powerful? I don't want to lose more trunk space than that. Should I consider mounting in the driver seat cubby?

just get the single 10" zenclosure. that displaces .75cu ft. i have it with a 10w6v2 and its incredible. The sub needs enough airspace to create pressure which is the BOOM BOOM. it it doesn't have enough air, well it wont sound as good as it can.
think about it in terms of exhaust. If you have a single pipe exhaust, it can only move so much smoke whereas if you have dual pipes, it can move more efficiently creating more horsepower. on the other hand, if you have a huge 3" fart muffler, its not going to matter because the car doesn't need that big of tubing and therefore isn't as efficient.
if that confused you then just find a box that is around the recommended amount of airspace and call it a day.

The single zenclosure setup kills half of the trunk though, doesn't it?
I can't do that..
I'm not someone who cares about blasting bass, I am only getting a sub to get the lows since I'm losing full range from the stock system.
Would it be that bad to get the JL 10w1v2-4 and put it in the corner enclosure from zenclosures?

I do need that bit of space under the strut - I carry guitars and keyboards in my trunk all the time, and without that space, it would be damn near impossible.. I'm already thinking it will be terrible losing that corner.
