Just curious, that program that was used to make the original sketch, is that Autodesk Inventor?

Was just wondering, I use that program frequently in my engineering classes.

didnt even think about it til last night. it's gonna be a couple days. i have some PC customers waiting now //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

i was thinking about it though...i've never seen this done. how would it work out if i were to have it built where one sub/port faces forward (cabin) and the other facing the rear? and flush the amps in right next to the sub on the front baffle (on each side). would that be a viable option?

NP man. PM me if I forget to check this thread.

will that even sound ok? i dont have a clue, and i've never seen anything similar...

I'd say the subs belong on the same plane (board) for the most part.

Even if it sounds great e-critics will torture you:laugh:

i was thinking the same, and idgaf about what these folks think. i just want the shit to sound good, and be able to fit all the shit in there.

i'm working in a limited space, and i want to have some space in my trunk (yes, even with 4 cubes net //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif) so i want the amps mounted up off the floor.

maybe i can do a "horn" design or something where the subs mount inside the box, and i can mount all the shit on the outside. like i've said, i have no idea wtf i'm doing with this. just throwing out ideas. i want to draw it up ONE time. so i want to have the right idea when i start measuring and shit.

i was looking at his work earlier. but i want to have a hand in the design. i can build it NP, but i want the satisfaction of saying i designed/help design it. i guess i'm crazy...

I can't design a horn.

Maybe you could do both subs forward and port forward sealed off?

 

[jco1385 5,000+ posts]

like an IB? no way... too much hassle sealing it up.

if i went with aero (or pvc) ports over a slot port, would i save any space? if so, how do aeros work? i need to get this shit built //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

been sitting on the equipment for like 2-3 months

Yes, pvc ports can save space. Building the box to tall can choke off the cabin.

well i can only get about 15" max on height. the one in there now is 16" and SNUG. i wouldn't be able to fit 16" and still get the box in the car. so 15" would be the max height. i just want it to be as shallow as possible so i can keep my toolbox and other shit in there. i don't care what the trunk looks like, but i'd like this to be somewhat cleaner than previous installs.

PM me a picture of the box you have in there, get a nice level shot and an upward view. Then if the seat(s) fold, get me a shot from the inside too.
