suv bed box build up.

okay I know most people want to see pics... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/uhoh.gif.c07307dd22ee7e63e22fc8e9c614d1fd.gif no pics just thoughts.

I have a Ramcharger suv has a small 55" wide by about 42" deep bed area.

I want to mount 4 subs and an amp.

my idea is U shaped. put 2 12" subs out close to tailgate aimed down, and 2 10" subs near corners of back seats aimed up, and amp in the middle. All subs would have seperate compartments and ports, would be pushing, if I get the subs I want, approx. 1800 rms. (400 rms for each 10" and 500 for each 12")

I was figuring on 1 1200watt - 1600 watt amp. and one cap?

Any suggetions would be appreciated.

edited::kay Moe. why most of the compatetion cars i see have different sizes in them. I have seen some with all the same size and some with 2 different sizes and a few with 3 different sizes.

55" is from inside fender to inside fender... not inside wheel well to inside wheel well.

just inside wheel wells is approx. 42"

and by small I ment short compaired to a suburban..lol

dont mix sub sizes

why not?

its very common to have cancellation issues when mixing different sub sizes

 

[bigdaddygb 10+ year member]

ok i could see that I guess.... not sure how 2 12's would cancel 2 10's with each sub in their own box and individually ported though.

some thing like this

box design would work fine, don't mix sub sizes. You would need someone a lot more intelligent than me to explain why, but i know from experince it is not a good thing. acoustics are very touchy, also with well over 1000 watts rms have you thought about upgrading your electical system??

 

[bigdaddygb 10+ year member]

yeah..seperate battery and upgrading altanator to high amp one.

also adding a cap close to amp.

Anything I missed?
