I recently puchased two of these bad boys. However, the specs on enclosures states not to use a sealed enclosure. I owed a 98 Ford Expedition. These woofers requires about 2-3 cu ft of airspace ported box and the "wife" will not let me take the third seat out (imagine that). Anyone have suggestion on where I can put these monsters?

You could make a big thin box on the bottom, rising up in two pillars holdin the subs. and the base would house the ports. I would give you a link of a setup what im talkin about but the site is down. ------------- I need quality equipment, feel free to donate.

Its in either sounddomain or cardomain.com.. It was a chevy silverado ext. cab. So he could use the seat. he made part of the box underneath it, with the ports. then where the JL W7 sub was place was in a pillar, that connected to the bottom box. combined with the volume of the pillar and the other box underneath the seat, he got the needed volume, without taking out the seat and buildin a big box. that should explain it alittle better,but a picture is worth alot more..be sure to post it when i find it. ------------- I need quality equipment, feel free to donate.

Thanks for the input. That's a very unique design and I may have to run with that. Can you hear the gears turning??????

no problem. i saw that and thought that it was a nice space saver setup.. not to mention that the sub is in the middle of the cab...i bet that sucker is loud!
I love the new W7 series for JL..too bad the cost a ton. ------------- I need quality equipment, feel free to donate.

I've heard the 12's at a show. They pound ridiculously, I haven't hooked them up yet. But I plan on glass'n a box for them along with glass'n the back hatch for the amps and doors as well.

That's cool 97 neon, did you port or seal? I got two Audiobahn A1300HCT one for each 10. That's about 1200 watts a piece. Plus two sets of Audiobahn ABC600Q and A435HCT 4 channel. Not bad for a "starter" system. I have an estimate 7 cuft behind the third seat wheelwell to wheelwell. I plan on glassin a box for the subs, glassin the rearhatch door for the amps, glassin the front doors for two sets of AMD60Q and kick pods for the two sets of componets. Where do you think I should put the tweets? The A-pillars, the kick pods, or the front doors? Blow da windows out homie!!!!
