Have you tried different orientations for the subs to see what sounds best? Having two smaller boxes would make it easier to move them around. Try them facing each other at the back and stuff? |
Ya, you can't see the dist block at all. It's only about 3 inches off of the trunk floor on the back seat and the sub box completely blocks it.
Those boxes are not any regular shape. There is the front cube which you see built into a larger cube at the back which also has a slanted back on it. They are built to take up as little trunk space as possible while maintaining the functionality of the rear seat passthrough in the middle of the back bench. The design wraps the boxes around the contours of the trunk and fits them right against the back seat. I can take another couple of pics later to show what I mean. Having 2 boxes also gave me the ability to easily take 1 out but keep the other for some bass if I needed the trunk space. If I take out one sub box I can fit my mom's wheelchair in there without a struggle. The left box is perminantly anchored, the right sub is removabe. I stapled large velcro strips to the bottom of the box to hold it in place. Its a little ghetto but makes it easy to take out and works surprisingly well.

The amp is class D. it remains surprisingly cool even after hours of operation at a descent volume level. The Alpine gets much warmer to the touch with the same use. I just make sure to leave a few inces of breathing room when packing the trunk with stuff. I figured the amps would get better ventilation there than stuffed behind the boxes.
Thanks for the comments guys!
