[QUOTE="Mr. Loki, post: 75662, member: 545020"] Iv'e heard that you shouldn't mount your amp directly to the box for two reasons. It makes it easier for a thief to steal. And the vibration can damage the amp. If you have a well built box and a alarm, it might not matter. With a ported box, you might be able to mount your amp inside the box, and connect it str8 to the speaker. The speakers movement would circulate air around the amp to keep it cool. Only problem is running the power, ground, and remote wires inside the box. Yea theft is a problem, but an alarm helps alot. I have heard the same, but a little vibrations hasnt hurt any of my amps and if you have a good solid box the amp should be fine as long as you dont have a ghetto setup where your shit slides all over your trunk.
