I answered a bunch of my own questions and narrowed my options down. I wanna save some of the money I got for christmas, so I would prefer to be able to just get a ported box for my current shiva. It's a little more sensible now, and i still want to keep it around 2cuft or less. I wanna...

Well I already have a shiva in a sealed 1cuft box that I'm running 600 watts to... but I just got some extra spending cash for xmas. :P I wanna purchase a second shiva, and I feel like going ported. First question: I think I have the older non-mark IV shiva. I can't remember which one I got...

hmm... well my mirror doesn't rattle but the ****er falls down every time the bass hits... not off but you know how the mirror turns n shit... it'll turn down and face the back seat... any way to rig it up so I can see the cool shaking cars without duct tape? oh yea... and I -love- my shiva so...

yea its on certain bass notes pvd hits on disk 2 of politics of dancing... i havent ran through very many cds cause I just got the setup, but I'll figure out the point in the song recreate the bass note with fruity loops and see if anything happens. It went away when I turned it down a...

I too had great success with the 1ft^3 enclosure with my shiva I just installed... it sounds wonderful. I'm addicted... I had a question because of that tho and felt like keepin the shiva talk together- I currently only have one shiva ( ) powered by a 600watt amp. I got the amp turned down a...

weather proofing could be good... I'm using that to line all the plastic in my car to stop it from rattling against the metal/windows :P I can use the leftover for the sub thx... anyone else?

hm... my shiva didnt come with any foam lining/gasket... that was partially why I asked

I was just about to mount my cool new shiva to my box and I thought...hmm... I wonder if theres a better way to do this... soooooooo: What are the best screws to mount a shiva to a 3/4" mdf sealed box? Anything else I should do? I was thinkin about lining the hole with a line of clear silicon...

if you're using external dimensions... just don't forget to take away the width of the wood you have on the box like I did

go with what jmac said

Does 1.588 cu. feet sound about right? I'm pretty sure you just convert inches to feet and multiple that shit to get the volume

I just found somewhere that you can use capacitors as a high-pass passive crossover on speakers.... by wiring them in series with the speaker... anyone got any know-how on the subject? General info? Does it work? No? Yes? Stupid? Discuss?

sounds good... thanks for the help guys... I'm gonna run a 0 gauge wire from the battery to a fused distro block and then split it into a 4 gauge wire goin to each amp. Gonna split the RCAs... My amp should arrive by this weekend so I'll let ya'll know how it sounds. One last question tho-...

Oh shit... silly me.. you wanted to know how to get the side panels off... there attached with the uhh "friction" connections. I just pulled mine out slowly and made sure I wasn't breakin anything....

Well I got a 98 civic.. different car designs but the rear deck layout may be the same.. Go into your trunk and pull the two black handles in the back top portion... and push the seats down. After you do that you can twist and pull the rear deck out... or do it the safer way and take off the...
