[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 651081, member: 555320"] Well, you need to seal off the baffle that the speaker is mounted to so that the backwave can not interfere with the frontwave. How sealed? Sealed sealed. And really for infinite baffle (free-air), your trunk isn't the box.......there is no box. Just a subwoofer attached to a baffle so that the front wave and rear wave are isolated. Drawbacks? Overall output will suffer (compared to sealed or ported). Can be difficult to impliment in some vehicles. Low mechanical power handling (if that matters to you). [/QUOTE]
