grassroots, how much room did you lose with that 18 in there?

 

[grassroots 10+ year member]

about 8 cubes total...

at first it felt a little uncomfortable where the seat was, but i got used to it. it's really not that far up, but i'm used to reclining. it's totally worth the space i lost...

Oh I bet. I want to either upgrade my sub stage, or get a new truck [if i can lol], so I was thinkin maybe a 15" in the same style you did

ive got a ranger too

 

[grassroots 10+ year member]

you could fit a 15 in there no problem... i would have much more room if i didn't have to move the seat forward to account for the subs' excursion. if i were you i'd put the sub on the passenger side or try and up fire it to get the most seat room...

Heres my setup Check sig for components

Not dogging you, but that last pic shows a ring on the wood above the sub that appears to be obvious evidence your subs are hitting that baffle. Not only has that got to be lousy for performance, its gonna damage your woofers. Give those cones some room to breath.

I'd just put legs 2" long around them either 6 or 8 would be good. It'd keep the seat off the sub. (did that with a friends L7s)

I agree. But more specifically, the surface needs to be a reflecting baffle, and spaced apart accoringly, or it needs to be as acoustically transparent as possible, and the distance apart is no longer critical (beyond missing cone excursion).

I tend to agree with what was said before... turn the box around, build it off the floor 2 to 4 inches, downfiring. No more seat cusions to absorb sound waves.
