If its not going to be a wall just a proper ported enclosure should work great for your blazer.

Are you currently running what is in your sig??

If so, try tuning a tad higher, say, 40-45hz.

yea thats my set up......the box tunning funny. the box was pos to be 36hz. my highest scores came at 42hz... my peak is pos to be 46hz says the term lab.. but finding songs at 44hz to 47hz is hard. cant really find any...

whats your best score?

 

[bgowdy 5,000+ posts]

146.1 but its more of a 3 round average. its not a burp. the rounds are 3 diff times so it averages every second so the voltage has to be good or your db will drop

If its not a wall. Guess I should of added to the statement. I asked in a thread awhile back where someone was talking about 4th orders about putting one in the jeep just because I like the concept of them. I was told that a ported box would do just as fine if not better.
