Quarter round for internal corners?

[sharkman]

I have some quarter round molding left over when I did my floors a few years ago. Its midfield with laminate cover. Would this be ok for my corners. Help reduce turbulence right. Would love to use since I'm not using it for anything else

I would leave it out

I think it would hurt more than help as it is opposite what it should be

Apart from changing box volume modifying the shape of those corners shouldn't make any difference at all. Throw it in there if you like, it should provide extra strength for those joints if nothing else.

OK I understand that. I did caution anot her piece for a double baffle for added strength. I was wondering if I could move the sub location. Dd plans call for sub front and poet the the side. Move the sub to top and port to side.

More importantly is which direction things face in the car which can make a dramatic difference in output and response, but you simply won't know which is best until you test in your vehicle. Wherever you put the port make sure it's not crowded into a wall and you should be pretty happy.

In the car the port with face the side and sub will fire in out out to the trunk. If I could have sub firing up that would be better so sub won get damaged.

And I can't just flip the box. It won't fit. So is it OK to move sub as long as it's behind the port?

Put the sub and port wherever you like. It will be a crap shoot what works in your trunk.
