hidden sub! response amp r they any good?

[nizmokid]

Just wondering if anyone has mounted a sub behind the false wall in the boot next to where the battery sit??? is there enough room there for one or not!!! :D

Oh also has anyone got a response amp or woofers? are they any good at all?

:D

Dont really know about hidden.

I made a box up to suit the space then mounted it onto mdf behind the false wall. Works pretty good for my tastes.

Also heard of free-air style being done, but you need a sub that will handle free-air okay or it just sounds too muddy

This is mine

the answer is yes. it does fit.

some time back, hot 4s did a build up for an s13 or an s14 using an irregular shaped box with a 'beveled' angle so the sub faced the rear passenger boot corner. I think from memory they used a response 10" and made about 136dB. not bad at all for a 100% stealth install!

Ive got the 500 WRMS response 5 channel. theyre ****ing awesome for the price, particularly if compared with other dollar/wrms amps, sold at car stereo/budget home entertainment stores.

no audible clipping, and enough power that you can run gains fairly low and minimise distortion whilst maintaing good dynamic response.

the only critisism I might have is that they arent particularly efficient. be prepared for the need to buy a big battery that can deliver lots of current - or alternatively buy an altronics cap(they are also good and cheeep)

sick sounds cool i need to buy a amp to run a set of JL splits and a 12 inch sub so thats sound like the go!

you will be pushing it to fit a 12 in that space between the back seat and the boot. Its probably gonna need to be a ten.

good luck !

10 Fits very nicely, could almost squeeze a second ten in on the left if you bought the false wall out a little.

12 was a nightmare to fit in with a box as well, especially trying to design a box with the right sized enclosure for it. Just buy a good quality 10 if you want really really good bass

Darker do you have any more pics of your install?

It looks like a very neat way of doing it

[Darker]

I have a few more pics, but they're not very good. Ill take a couple more on the weekend with a digital camera and post them up next week.

On second thought, Ill PM you to save everyone's load time

Anyone else chasing them just pm
