Face your subs to the rear so they can load off of your trunk lid, then your amplifier will be fine on the back of your seat.

Unless you're building your trunk as a 6th order enclosure it does NOT matter how you have your subs firing. Most people are going to push there enclosure up to the seats to have more room in the trunk, that alone brakes the deal. Never mind anytime you add anything inside of your trunk you will change its tuning.

What did I gain from sealing off my trunk, NOTHING!!!!, I only gain 3 db because of how I tuned the box that replaced the old non sealed boxes, I have the smaart metering to prove it.


Ryan, I love you.
