I never competed or did any shows but I had a 94 Celia got that I had a decent and extremely loud set up In. I would always move my box around further toward the back seats,away from the back seats rear seats folded down, folded up box forward, box backwards, facing up in every combo till I found that right one. I loved that system .. it banged.. hatchbacks made it way louder

Pioneer head unit (dont remember what model, it was the first one they made with like a screen saver type of thing. This was back in 2001. So not nearly the amount of gear available as there is now. Dollar a watt amps lol. But I had a generic sealed box. My car was a 94 Celica GT, nice small car with the hatchback. Had box rear facing obviously , about a 30⁰ incline firing right the lower part of the window in the hatchback. It was stupid loud. You couldnt have it playing without cracking a window or the sunroof. Pressure would want your ear drums to do things they aren't supposed to do. But yeah, wasnt anything crazy, the W7s weren't even a thing yet.

[@troublesum1444]

mine would be with Trunk Closed Nice set up Love the box angle!!!

[@bryanmeier272xp8]

from what i seen 20 years ago with old school power Rockford subs alot of people ran there subs facing tords the back of trunk but then when we use to go to the bass comps we would turn the box around and take Buggie strap so the trunk would just be open like 3 inches and it was louder

[@MikeJrOfficial]

Gain 3.5db on this build with drivers door and trunk open.

[@gypsy6211]

Depends on the car. Every frequency has a distance, a 30Hz wave is 37' long, so if the inside of the car is short, turning the sub around makes the travel longer and you end up with a cleaner hit that's not distorted by the next wave. Which equals louder. It's also why popping the trunk can help, too much pressure inside the car will dampen the subs ability to hit, you basically turn the car into a bandpass with no port.

[@mattderienzo4922]

I’m impressed for two subs. That sounds amazing.

[@Mr_You_Understand_Me]

That's dope. I've got 2 Memphis 15's in my Malibu with a sundown audio Amp. And it's louder with the trunk open

[@thelifeofriley815]

They can act as a heat sink. You’re just adding mass and reducing load per power wire.

[@AWD_DSM_FTW]

@@thelifeofriley815 what's really happening is when you start reaching the ampacity of a wire which is just a safety factor, current flow rises to meet power demands. Current makes heat so the better the voltage can be, the cooler gear will run.
