Gonna be doing 3 8's under the rear seat of my 4 door 2011 f150. Subs will be firing foward, will probably use 2 3" aeros. should I put subs in center of box with aport on each side? or put subs on one side and ports on other? Just looking for opinions, or anyone with similar setups. Thanks.
Ud be better off downward firing. Cuz if ur keeping the seat only a circus midget could sit there... 8" sub diameter... Probs closere to 8.25 for OD At least. Then 3/4" for the top of the box and 3/4 for the bottom. Thats almost 10"
thank you. i have gotten many pm's this last couple weeks that im loosing output with my port on the passenger side. im like wtf? for some reason many people think port on the driver side is magically louder or something... not sure why
Thats not what im saying at all..... I just dont see how its worth it... Your gonna have to raise the seat at least 4-5". Not to mention for the 8" in the middle... Thats whee the. Hump is in the cab so the wholeeee seat has to get raised another 2" all im saying is its gonna make anyone sitting back there miserable!!
I know from experience... I had 2 10" Qs upward firing... Raised the seat almost 5" and there still wasnt enough room to make a proper box with clearance for the excursion.. Given it was 10s but still... I now have a 15" btl thats going in what used to be the middle seat
Sorry guys, haven't checked this in a few days. There is plenty of height to fire the 8s forward. Not sure what model f150 you are referring to that I would need to raise the seats? I have a little over 9 inches at the front of the seat. There is no hump in the 2011. My first thought was to do the 3 subs towards the drivers side with a single 4"aero onpassenger side of box firing at the door.
I think it would LOOK better doing the 3 subs in the middle of the box with a 3" aero on each side, but honestly without doing any of the math I'm pretty sure there wouldn't be enough depth to put the ports on the front of the box anyway.
Oooo k i see now... You wanna do a slight wedge almost... All things make sense in the world again. Im an ocd freak and need things symmetrical so I would do the aeros in the middle sections between te subs
