My little giant is here! "HAT I6SW"

This is what a BOSE sub-woofer should look like!

How many amplifiers are you using in your system? We also need to work on a neat enclosure for the I6SW...

A general question for every one...

Can I put the sub facing down into the carpet when using a ported box, (port facing to the side)

D.

The deck should be able to turn on two amplifiers...

The relays...you're using them to turn on the amplifiers?

Yes, you can aim the woofer into the carpet. Just make sure you're giving the woofer enough room to move. Now, tell me what your resonant frequency for the caq is?

Some time ago I mention that a small 'pop' from speakers
when turning on/off the HU, you suggested a relay
for the amp, I got these from Adam/Jim to prevent
the pop issue.

I made a model (mock-up) of the subwoofer enclosure, pictures tonight!

Do an spl sweep of your car, what's the loudest frequency?

Designing the enclosure for the I6SW:

Ok, space required 0.35 cubic feet = 9.9 liters lets call it 10 liters

So I got some pop-corn and filled a couple of bags with 10 litters of pop-corn and ready to go:

remember to give the woofer some room for excursion...

Don't worry, I'm aware about that!

I wanted to see the woofer in the original designs but for many reasons will go facing down. I'm providing extra space for the cone to "move" (o:

Ok,
here is my way of describing it:

10hz nothing just a low humble

20hz my ears hurt and a bigger humble

30hz my ears hurt and gets louder

40hz really loud and my hair tickles!

50hz calms down and not as loud but doors start to reverberate.

60hz not as loud as 50hz but everything vibrates

70hz it just keeps smoothing more and more....

So I guess some where around 40hz it's the loudest!

Why would you face it down into the carpet, vs facing up into the cabin? I realize there's a protective/ hidden factor, just seems it would muffle the sound badly?

Besides many factors like protective, away from heat vent, easier installation, etc. It's a ported box so all the bass will come out of the 2" vent that will face towards the fire wall!
