Ok so I just hooked up my midbass drivers in my custom kicks (had an issue with the amp but that's been resolved). In most music, they sound pretty good but in heavier type music (like hard rock), they tend to be a bit muddy and resonant.
Here is the set up for them.
Old school Fosgate 6.5" from the FNQ line of components running off an old school 800a4. I have them bandpassed at 80htz on the low side and 200 thx on the high side.
The custom kicks are fiberglass and currently sealed (I didn't open a hole in the bottom to flow through the carpet yet).
Is it an air space issue or could it be the panels themselves that are resonating? Should I use sound deadened inside the panels? They are not currently bolted down to anything but just wedged in place for the moment as they are not covered yet. I wanted to hear them first before I bothered covering them in case I have to scrap them and start over.
