Enclosure Design & Construction
Has anyone ACTUALLY fooled around with sub/port placement?

[QUOTE="neo_styles, post: 8057601, member: 644168"] To add to my previous statement, I won't really get to fool around with placement in an SUV for a couple years, but have noticed some interesting observations when fooling around with placement in a trunk car. With subs/port forward firing through my ski-pass (so quarter-loaded off the rear seats a smidge), I lost some of my low-end extension, but significantly improved my blend between sub and front stage. With the trunk closed off and rear-firing with the enclosure against the rear seats, low-end extension improved, upper-end extention died off a little, and the sub was easier to localize. These are the kinds of issues that you really don't need to worry about though when you're dealing with an open cabin like an SUV/hatch. I'd say that provided both the subs and the port have adequate breathing room and airflow, you should be able to observe less peaking and better low-end extension. [/QUOTE]
