First off whats up with your sizing!!! What kind of freq you looking for? And do you care if it is downward facing or forward? Also Can you say more about the 2 different depths? And please change the font size!

sorry about the size lol the two depths are the front and back heights of the wedge the 55" is the width of under the seat and the hight is the distance from the back of the cab to the front of the seat I know I did a Shiite job of explaining my self lol as far as freq Ive heard around 33Hz would be best for the BL 12 but to be truthful Im knew at this and and Im not sure what the freq does for it does that change the sound of the sub and I would lik it to be forward facing also and thank you for your reply

[stevemead08 752]

Your wont have the height to face the 12 forward or down, so up is the only way you can face it. how did you plan on raising your seat 4 inches?

add 4" to the seat brackets with some adapters Im fabing up and raising the back of the seat supports 4" its a very simple process and yes upward facing

[motoxchris08 0]

yea just like that but fo one 12 do you think I might be able to fit to if I ever decided to

2 12 inch Qs

yes 09 crewcab silverado. your seat would have to go up about 6 inches to get the cubic foot requirements to fit 2 12 bls ported. not very safe if you ask me

would rather do the box first metal is forgiving you can always weld it back wood your screwed I want to hear it first before I cut my knew truck up

[stevemead08 752]

dedpends on your goals? if you want loud go with the BL. the q will get fearly loud but are ment to get low and sound very clean... and they do! I have never heard a bl or btl but i hear they get quite loud. my first setup was aimed at a btl but it never happened. im lovin the sundown SA-8s in there now. may be an option?

Well my seat is lifted about 3 inches. my dimensions are 53.5w x 16d x 11height1 and 7.5height2. comes out about 3 cubes after displacments. i dont have a box builder program. just built it in the truck one piece at a time. now i use these specs to build different boxes for different subs. i change my shit alot.

had a ? about freq since Im not that familiar the lower the freq does that mean the bass gets deeper and is that why you need to no the freq when your building an enclosure if so ?
