Yeah I actually thought of the Hdc3 right when I posted the topic, that will probably be the way to go. But for sake of airspace, should I go with a 15 rather than 18?

good luck finding an amp to push that RE with 700 AUD

I've been thinking of doing a build and I want to get started over the summer. I have an 01 civic and currently I just have a ghetto box and 2 type r's so I have some bass. I'm planning on taking out my folding down rear seats and build a box that fires into the cabin sealed off from the trunk...

I've been looking for a new amp to power my dual 2 ohm type r's for a little while and I see the new line of Hifonics amps are certified and all that. In the past they sent a lot of clipped signals from what I heard and i was wondering if they are any better about that now? Has anyone seen the...

Alright thanks for the heads up

My civic isn't sound deadened so I'm afraid people might think I have kidnapped people in my trunk trying to get out. And that would be no good

Alrighty well I'll go check out lowes and home depot. We have a lumber yard around here somewhere to so I'll go check with them. Thanks guys

I'm about to buy a good bit of MDF and I was wondering where you can get it pretty cheap and the best quality

This is an awesome sub for your application. Buddy surprised me with how low things things can get. They definitely can move some air.

Like a lot of the other people in this thread have posted, you can spend all the money you want on the sub, but its not even half of what makes the final product. Make sure you budget money for a good amp, make sure you have an adequate power supply, make sure you have money to deaden so your...

I believe that with 2 dual 4 ohm voice coil subs that you can wire to either 4 ohm or 1 ohm final impedance. I may be wrong though. I have 2 type r's as well but mine are dual 2 ohm voice coils and I have mine wired to a final impedance of 2 ohms.

Alright I'll check into that. I was planning on running some blue LED's anyways in the rack so some bonus LED's on the fans wouldn't hurt

Alright so the general consensus so far is that ventilation is key in this. I'll definitely probably keep the side facing the trunk open or at least have slots in it and will wire up a couple fans to blow on the amp and to vent the air out of the space. Thanks for all the responses and I don't...

I'm planning to build a false floor and an amp rack that will be recessed in the floor so that the plexi-glass over it will sit flush with the false floor. I'm pretty new to this so I am looking to any tips or advice anyone could give me on this build. Thanks

Well the only thing I would advise you about on making the box is make sure you fill all the cracks really well and screw it together really well because if the box isn't sturdy then bad stuff could happen. Also just make sure the person installing it uses the right size wire, probably 4awg for...
