[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 2851945, member: 549629"] Hey guys. My daily driver is a 98 Dodge RAM extended cab. Ive decided to upgrade the stereo in it, again. My question is gonna relate to port/woofer placement and firing direction. All the systems Ive had in this particular truck have been simple sealed enclosures, or small ported ones where firing direction was of little concern to me. But now Im installing my two xxx15's (05's). Yeah, the back seat is coming out. Im looking at 5 cubes each tuned to 28-32 hz, slot port. Ive been thinking up-firing the subs and ports... its simple and means I wouldn't have to cradle the xxx motors. Down firing would be easy too. Other variations (front-firing sub, up-firing ports for example) would be harder, but doable. Have you extended cab guys experimented with firing direction? Any insight for me on it? I will be building a temporary box to experiment with one of the drivers ported (make sure I like the box, the sound, etc).
