I was wondering what ways ppl have put their subs in. just wondering what way sounds better? front facing or facing back under the strut bar. I have two 10's to put in. I have kicker compVR's and a FG 500T1 mono AMP

 

Under the bar facing back would sound best.

I have a single 12 behind the bar facing up. Love it.

 

This is what i have in my car. Two 10" jl audio in a stealth box. Love it cause it hangs behind the bar so i still have decent amount trunk space.

I have 0 trunk space

Amp rack in front of the bar, second battery under the rack under the bar, sub box filling the whole rear part.

 

I got mine right under the seat so it vibrates my butt.

 

Mine is in the stock position. When my back starts hurting I crank up the bass

 

I have 2 10" massive kilo subs facing towards the rear under the brace with the port facing towards the front in between the seats. I also have the massive 2200 watt 5 channel amp mounted on top of the box. The box was custom built as imagined and sprayed with spray in bedlinderand I have actually won a sound comp with this setup bout 2 weeks after I got it and I am very pleased with it.

 

Im with those guys that have lost their trunks.
Not only have I lost some 1/4 mile time because of weight, but I also lost all of my trunk, AND access to my spare tire (so i took out the spare).
I thought to myself… "Did I get a Z for the space and amount of passengers? No, I got it for me!"
Anyway here is my setup with 2 12" MTX

 

I say best way to save room and have the best sound is like mine. 10" u don't need bigger if it's a good sub. Behind driver's seat it can be uncomfortable if u turn it up. My amp is where the stock woofer would have been and I purchased the custom box for the woofer and it fits perfect.

 

I have since upgraded to a W6, but even the the entry-level WX (in the pic) did well. The W6 with ~500W RMS is ridiculous in the ported enclosure.



The stock sub location isn't that great acoustically, but it has plenty of room for other equipment

 

I have my sub in the stock location since I'm not a bass freak, but I do love my audio. The stock sub location is good if you are running a single 10. Just be prepared to lay down a bit of Dynamat. I have my amps located in the glovebox since it is rather useless anyway.

 

I just built this box for my buddy's 350Z.

 

I just bought a pioneer 10" sub for 80 bucks off amazon and the enclosure for it was 40 and the entire thing is only 12 x 18" and it sits in the trunk with very minimal space and hits really hard

 

Driver Up
Slot port on driver side , facing rear corner of Hatch

 

in the floor..... largest amount of cabin gain for a hatchback. i made a hard cover to go over them so i can still use it for storage (not shown)

 

This isn't my car, but I use one of these from Zenclosures. I'm running a JL-Audio 10W3V3-4 off a JL-Audio G1700 amp.

 

Hey Billseast nice build. Do you feel up to building another one?

 

I build box all day everyday
