Sub Box pressed againt Rammat...BAD??

[ConradoR]

Hey guys

I have gutted my interior, and Rammated about 50% of the panels in my trunk, and 100% around the panels where the box will be installed.

However, now when I put the box back where it will be installed, it's sitting pretty snug with all the Rammat. Is that okay, or being pretty tight against the Rammat panels actually work against me and "absorb" the bass waves??

Where the pic of what it looks like. The box is not ported.

You can't tell, but a lot of the corners are very secured by the rammat, it almost stays there by itself.

SHould I add some space between the sound deadener and the back of the box by installing it suspended in mid air by aluminum L brackets?

Thanks and sorry about the Noobness, I'm noooo novice to cars, but I have ZERO experience with sound deadener...

Anyways this the sound system 50% completed (disassembled it to get all the deadener installed)

All I gotta do now is secure the box and modify the left panel to have the box opening...

Naw, I did the install myself, bypassed the bose amp, the whole 9 yards. As I did the whole rest of system setup, and car (suspension, engine work, painted panels, custom headlights, custom carbon fiber).//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif

Eheh as I said I'm not retarded, I just have ZERO experience and knowledge about sound deadeners, and even after all my research, I couldn't get an answer to that mounting question I had.

But now thanks to your replies, I can get some peace of mind and mount the sub box, although for some reason I still feel like the kind of snug fit on the deadener will take some of the bass away. But I trust the insight of this board 100% and will go ahead with your advices

The vibration from your box does not create bass, it creates rattles. Trust me, your box being snug in there will not hurt you. Props on the clean install though man.
