[QUOTE="MiniVanMan, post: 2783053, member: 573252"] You can seal them up if you like. It looks like either would take about .175 ^ft and have an F3 of about 90 hz. With cabin gain you could get a good boost out of 80 hz and have a really nice front stage. I don't know how feasible it is to have an enclosure that large in there, but that would be ideal. Other than that, I'd run them free air. Both Fs' are low enough they should handle 90-100 hz pretty well. Just sealing the back of them will probably get you an F3 of about 120-130 hz with a peak at about 175 hz. You won't be able to get enough low end from them to make that worthwhile. Mounting them will be critical. Mount them securely using MDF. The more surface area mounted to the door the better. Add as much mass as you can around the speaker to lower the resonance. I'm anticipating that either one will do well in there, and will be a far cry better than ANY component set for the same money. I'm actually quite excited for you, and would love some reviews when all is said and done. [/QUOTE]
