I have a big box in mine right now and want to switch to one high end sub in the floor but I carry these big Tupperware boxes in my trunk. Will this kill the sound?
Also what would it do to the sound to have a single sub and a passive vent/grill in the floor also?

why do you need a 12" there isn't a huge difference between 10 & 12" subs in terms of output (given they have the same motors and similar T/S specs). 10's work properly in smaller boxes however. If you are looking for some bass in a small space... forget the single 12" and go with either a 10" or dual 8's.

12's move more air 10's are punchier.. I always opt for 10" subs

I changed my mind and got a 10" shallow Pioneer sub.. I've already paid Duffman for the custom box. He's already done making it, just waiting for him to test it in a Yaris. He's been going to one of the Toyota dealers near him for the past week, but they won't even let him try placing it in the spare tire of any of their Yarii so he's going to try another Toyota dealer this week.
I told him that I want to make sure it fits before he sends it because I don't want to deal w/ back and forth shipping costs if it doesn't fit perfectly and I have to send it back to him. Oh, here's some of the stuff he sells: http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/duffmanaudio |

Duffman has been waiting for his local Toyota dealers to get the 5-door LBs in stock. I emailed him today because I searched his local Toyota dealers' inventories and all of them now have at least one 5-door LB in stock. Hopefully, he can send me all the stuff soon.

cool
too bad there isnt a way to utilize the knob that tightens the spare down in the back.. if you could tighten the sub down onto the car you'd get some killer resonance.. looks sweet though :)

That blue knob that tightens the spare still fits w/ the box over the tire.

Very curious on the final SQ and output on this. Looks like another good option for a traveler like me.

Duffman shipped the stuff out today so I should have them by next Wednesday. I'm getting a new Pioneer FH-B8000BT this Friday and I have this sub.:
Pioneer TS-SW2541D http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PU...low/TS-SW2541D and this amp.: Pioneer GM-D7400M http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PU...ries/GM-D7400M For now, it's going to be a new HU, mono. amp. and sub.. Looking for a place that can make me new A-Pillar covers with integrated tweeter mounts before I replace the stock speakers. |

Thanks for the info. Duffman. I found a place today that can do this. It's pricey though. Costs more than the new component speaker set.
