AQ HDC318-A in 14.4 cuft trunk using IB?

[mcsoul 10+ year member]

Would an AQ HDC318-A in 14.4 cuft trunk using IB work?

VAS 109 ltr (3.85 cubic feet) trunk is 3.7 times the size.

QES .5

QTS .464

FS 31 Hz

rest of the specs:

What would this do to the power handling, I was

thinking it may handle an AQ 1200d this way?

Will it work as IB, or will my trunk act like a big leaky

sealed enclosure?

The Car is a 2004 nissan Altima, the trunk and rear deck actually

do not look to bad in terms of IB, it's almost ideal from what I can see.

Just seal off the 6x9 ports and 2 little holes, and mount some layered

mdf sheets behind the seats, right against the ledge with some kind

of gastketing.

I know, I know try it and see. I just want to make sure the numbers look

right to people with IB experience.

i'd try to help you BUT what the hell is IB

Infinite baffle. When there is no actual enclosure, just a wall that seperates the air in the front from the air in the back. Usually you need 3-4 times the VAS, and I think I've got that.

well if you have enough room to acompany this method

i say go for it cause i want to a IB

and for the AMP just get the 2200 if you have the money. If not find something used. If not just get a 1200.

But yes 1200 will power it just not like a 2200

btw you could try posting on the Enclosure part of the forum.

Infinite baffle reduces the power handling of the woofer substantially I believe.

Anyone who has done or calculated IB before?

Edit:

Not a bad idea.
