[QUOTE="Imshirazy, post: 2650044, member: 574016"] Tell you what, I'll help you out. I'll find out the formulas myself if I have to, just PM me if I don't type back tomorrow because then I forgot :P Simply, even though everyone makes it sound hard, it's truly not... The biggest issue is just volume, so you have to run in and out of your car to hear/adjust then when you're settled for all you know a different song is going to sound way off etc. It will definitely be unique, I will give you that, and the quality from the subs although will be very hard, I still think it will sound better as long as you get the cut off for the 13 at maybe 42 and the cutoff for the 10s at 48 if possible. Just do this Angle your 10s either to the sides of your car, or toward your backseats aim the 13 at the end of the trunk from there try to get the crossover situation working then from there mess with the volume give it about an hour or so and you'll have a fairly good setup that will sound better than a pair of the same size subs as long as you have a basic concept of what to do, might take a bit over an hour actually... But if you want the real precise or close to perfect/really good setup then yes, it will take quite the while. A good car tuning should take about 2 weeks for the full surround of the car. Luckily enough, alpine and pioneer now have technologies integrated into their head units whereas by use of a microphone, this can all be done in 20 minutes. and even 20 minutes is a long time, and it's a computer doing the job, let alone a person. i suggest also, that since you want the 13 to play the real lows, either use a very large sealed box or a ported tune to 30 or so. I definitely highly recommend sealed for the 10s. Can you take a picture of the trunk and post it here so I can see what you plan to do? or the overall space you plan to use, whether or not you will use fiberglass/mdf/plexi etc [/QUOTE]
