I am going to glass my rear panel with 4 6x9s and i was wondering if I was to enclose the whole project in the same sealed air space would it sound right because I didn't want to leave it open to the bass coming from the trunk cause it seems to distort it. What do I do, all sealed together or 4 seperate air spaces?????

humm, interesting question, most 6x9's are usually setup in infinate baffle setups on the rear deck. I'd guess that they'd need around .5cuft or less in a sealed enclosure.

Hello everyone,

Yes that will be very loud and ear pierceing as Alpine guy said. I put 4 7x10's in the rear deck of a 92 corollaand it pulled the drums out of my ears not to forget the one 15 in the wheel well(fiberglassed) and the 2 12's in the trunk!

First, let me say I vote against this idea. That said, you would want to separate the two pair from each other because they'll be running in stereo (I'm assuming full range). So two separate chambers.

Sound Pressure -

What's a 7x10? Is that a misprint or a speaker size I'm not familiar with? Seriously.

I thought I'd seen it all but I'm pretty sure the 7x10 has eluded me.

From what I understood, 7x10 was just slightly oversized 6x9's, and a 6x9 would fit fine an any hole made for a 7x10...   Like a JL 6 being a 6.5 .......

Either way, I strongly vote against this idea as well. Why are you putting 4 6x9's in the back of a vehicle?? Your soundstage will be terrible, not to mention, 6x9's??  The only reason I could see you doing that would be if you were going for an SPL set up.... because your quality will be crap.... but then... why would you use 6x9's for SPL??

The only logical thing that I can come up with, is to do this as a joke, throw a whole crap load of 6x9's in a car with a LPF on, and show up at a dB drag.... even that would only be funny for the first 4 minutes.

so..... yeah... why are you doing this?

when you got a whole lot of bass coming from the trunk you need alot of highs to even it out. So what would you use other than 6x9s, I hope no 6 1/2s cause they suck compared to 6x9s come on!!!!!
