[QUOTE="jdraughn, post: 5648378, member: 586365"] Can anyone tell me just how much sound im giving up by going with a shallow sub? I am wanting as much decent quality sound out of as little space as possible and am pondering the best way to go about it. I also want it as light as possible. Im not looking for a sound quality sub, but im not looking for a one note wonder either, but I do want it to play some low notes for when the need arises. FYI, I want to put a enclosure in my 1990 Corvette. I want to keep it light, as im doing some upgrades to the engine and am trying to make it faster, not slower by adding 200lbs of sub enclosure [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] I will make the box out of fiberglass or carbon fiber to keep weight down, right now it's simply a matter of what subs. Going with a shallow sub does give me a little more flexability in my enclosure design. I can do something big and flat, maybe a false floor that is actually the enclosure? Any thoughts? [/QUOTE]
