anyone have any suggestions on whats the best subs and sizes would be for the back.... i know it will have to be a "box" more like a shelf to fit into the grove in the trunk.....


but any ideas would be great


thnx guys

 

in a vert its more about power and pushing air than most other things. Yes its a tight space but you could have something built. Something to remember, its best not to have a squared off box, it makes standing waves at some frequencies which isnt good.

 

I had a RF 800a2 and 2 RF He2 12" in the turnk of my convertible. It was in a somewhat wedge shaped box that fit into the trunk well. It worked great, but it took a lot of work to stop the trunk from rattling!

 

i have a 95' ragtop with 2 10" sony explodes in the back pushed by a 1000w mono sony explode amp ya i know i hate sony also but they were free. the 2 10's fit perfect reward facing with the amp on top it gives alot of thump the only bad part about us rag top boys is gettin that trunk and spoiler not 2 ratlle so be prepared 2 spend a lil cash on dynamat if u wanna do your car right.

 

pics of your set up???

 

Well I would put 2 12" subs back there facing rearward. Build the box your self with pressed wood.

in a rag top you cant do that as we have almost NO room, and for me i have even less as i have my air tank and compresser and my N02 bottle in there lol

 

naw man can make it work the box i have in mine is small so u cant have huge subs in it for the simple fact that there isnt enough volume in the box for the subs 2 perfome correct but it is possible but that is all i have in the trunk(subs and amp) so in your case u mite have 2 say bye bye 2 that back seat and build a custom enclosure there

 

ya that will never happen, main reason i kept my SS over my vette was for the back seats...... so they have to stay

 

Wow, I had to read that three times to figure out what you were saying. Punctuation is your friend.

Any large setup will definitely take up your entire trunk. I've heard of people removing the rear speakers (not needed if you're staging things correctly), and creating a port to allow some of the low end from the trunk to "flow" out. I never did get around to trying it.

 

Here's a few vert setups we built for customers

 

see the problem with me, is that i have all my air ride stuff under where you have the box, i have a tank, and a compressor, solinoids, etc...... so since i dont have much room the box i get has to be very narrow, but can gain space by being a lil wider... what did you charge for any of those setups, box's only, no subs

 

Thats about how my box fit when I had my rag top. Very snug, right up to the top of the "well." I eventually got rid of the trunk setup. When the top was down there wasn't enough low end and the rattles were even more evident.
In the end I had my setup simply set on the rear seat with the back folded down. Not the best looking, but it sounded great with the top up or down.

i built a setup basically just like this for my old vert. it work out so well that i now have it in my hardtop.

 

My setup is on my '96's Fquick page.
