Never thought of that, good call. The enclosure will sit in the side of the trunk with the flat wooden side exposed. The curved sized are pressed against the side of the trunk and hidden.

Hi guys, This is the first time I've attempted to build a fiberglass subwoofer box, and so far, it seems to be going well. I have a 2011 Hyundai Genesis Coupe and I upgraded the stock 8" sub to an Image Dynamics ID8 with an upgraded amp to power it. Problem is, the sub is installed in the stock...

It literally flexes maybe 1cm both ways. The rear deck actually looks and feels stiff at first....until you put an aftermarket sub in there.

Nice, thanks for the advice guys. Never worked with fiberglass before but that's a great idea. Do you just slather it on the rear deck and layer it like you would sound deadening? Im assuming it will bond to the metal deck pretty decent? All the liquid deadeners I've seen are flexible to...

Im running a small 8" subwoofer in my rear deck (OEM location) as an infinite baffle to save room in my coupe. Problem is that this subwoofer has so much power that it is enough to noticeably shake and vibrate the rear deck. Standard stick-on type sound deadener will not really dampen things...

Nice, I am seeing them for

Like the title says, Im looking for a small mono amp to drive a dual 4 ohm voice coil sub. Cheap, compact, and reasonably good quality is good. Must have high level input capabilities. Dont need anything too powerful...200-300 watts should be sufficient. May also consider smaller 2 channel...

There's lots of debate as to which stick on butyl/asphalt based deadener sheet will reduce vibrations the best. These sheets do little to absorb road noise, so the next layer on top should be some sort of noise absorber and I'd like to get your guy's opinions on this. What do you guys think is...

Im usually weary of speakers sold by big box chains as they arent usually very good quality for the price, but a few days ago I was curious and had a listen to the lowest end component speakers they had at Futureshop...the JVC CS-FS60 6.5" components for $70 CAD. Out of the entire rack of...

It sounds like it. But you'd have to push down on the cone HARD before you can get the VC to touch the backplate. However, the noise is present even at moderate volumes.

Hmmm... I really doubt it. The leads are actually spaced nicely from the cone and the spider. I tested every single other D4 sub that I have and they do not have this problem. It's quite noticeable and does sound like something coming from the center of the voice coil.

Hey guys, I have a JL 8W3V2-D4 that I thought was in good condition, but upon closer inspection Ive noticed that at louder volumes the sub appears to emit some sort of bottoming out/slapping noise. I have several other 8W3V2-D4 subs that Ive compared to and none of these subs exhibit such...

Update: No more D4's. I have one 8W3V2-D2 left. This is the dual 2 ohm version. Original post updated.

2 of the subs are now sold. 5 subs left.
