[QUOTE="adulbrich, post: 8278404, member: 661255"] You could put a few decent 12's between the big cabinet and back door. Make sure the mounting depth is short enough on them. Facing them towards the back door would be the best setup. The closer you can get the cone to a solid wall, while not allowing it to touch will give you the best bass response. You chose if you want a sealed or ported box. I think sealed would be best for this. Another good setup would be an inverted mount subwoofer on the back door. I don't know how big it is, but get the biggest sub you can fit on it (15 or 18). First, take the existing trim off. Mount a sheet of MDF with a cutout for the sub and door handle.. Seal the inside really good to prevent air leaks. Cover the outside with felt if you want. Put a bunch of Polyfill or similar synthetic pillow stuffing in the enclosure (its pretty cheap). Mount the driver with the magnet facing out and be sure to reverse the polarity of your wiring. Add or subtract polyfill on either enclosure until desired response is achieved. Either one of those would be pretty good. The power situation is something I'm still worried about. You may need to add an extra battery if you plan to play music a lot when the system is not charging. A simple voltage meter and switch off ebay may be a good idea too. Mount it somewhere you can easily see. When you play your system, turn it on and make sure the voltage doesn't get too low. If it does, charge it or turn the music off. You could fry your amp...
