    glassing inside box?

    Make sure you overlap the glass onto the wood several inches and sticking won't be a problem. Is the area you are going to glass right up against the sides of the car ? If it is your good to go. Pressure inside the enclosure is going to be pushing out ( i.e. pushing your glass piece right against the side of the car). Personally I would skip the fleece. I would fill in the area with a couple layers before you start overlapping onto the wood

    sounddeadening front doors

    ive always wondered if this is still true with door pods. Every time i think about it it doesnt make sense unless you useing stock speaker mounting If your pod is sealed then it wouldn't make sense to worry about sealing up the rest of the door But I would offer that unless your pods are freaking Huge, you will get better midbass using the airspace in the door as well

    Sub response vs efficiancy?

    I would go as far as to say polar opposites of each other. Both heavy on the bottom end, how is that much different in results? I like IB because I can't fit huge boxes in my vehicles, so I use more drivers and get the same sound. I can fit 4 drivers in a flat plane space of one driver's sealed box that can't get that low, or something like that. You're not going to get spl, but my subs are too loud for the rest of the system by far right now....on a kicker 700.5 that I read a lot of praise for in that price range, and with front and rears playing. It is pitiful with just the front comps. I estimate I could run a deep ported 10" in the space I am using, how much output at 30Hz would I get with an expensive 10 compared? And building a flat box would take more effort, I just don't think it could do it. I have a 400rms 10 I have tested with inverted in a ported 1cf (1cf+), it works but I don't think it can compare. Have not had time to stuff it in my trunk and try it. I ran at least 5 different 12s in a 1.25 ported that was huge in my trunk, they were a joke compared to the IB. The IB install I recently did is FFFFFFFFFFFFFAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR from heavy on the bottom end, and has an extremely flat response. Requires a lot more power and surface area IB to get the same low end reinforcment that can be had from a simple ported enclosure

    Welcome to the IHoP

    There are two routes from my house to Daves. There is a farm along one route that has a smokehouse right beside that road. MAN IT SUCKS DRIVING BY THAT
  15. I will let you know about them shortly Is that so? My issue is dealing with serious space limitations in the civic for daily scooting, and the Sundowns/ZED's and my old Orions are just to big, and so the old RF's were going to come out of retirement. Hence the reason I was bugging you about a small old RF, but if I could find decent power in the footprint of a 125a2 or 100a2 until the new ZED's come out, that would be sweet. I ordered the 4 channel Tuesday, so I should get it next week.

    But on the bright side, Mr. Webstar should make his triumphant return with his newly revamped setup

    newbie building first box

    Plain Jane bondo, or any other non reinforced filler for that matter will crack like a sob by itself. Structurally it's very weak. Now kitty hair, bondo hair, tiger hair and the other various reinforced fillers will work because of the short or long hair fiberglass strands in it. L bracket's work , I personally can't stand them, but they work
