Hi I`ve done some beginner fiberglassing projects. IE..Sealed boxes and simple amp racks...

I just purchased a new system and am designing a box/amp rack at the moment. I want to build a box that would incorporate a 15" and 8" subwoofer in different enclosures yet fiberglassed together. I don't have a scanner to put the designs I've drawn on the net, so I`ll try to explain how it goes. The 15" sits in the base angled slightly towards the front of the car, while the 8" is facing 90' towards the back on the car, but sits higher and infront of the 15".

something along the lines of that \ being the 15" and | being the 8".

My questions are does anyone have a similiar box design, and also how do I get the correct airspace in the boxes and the correct port for the 15".

It will go in a 2000 Camaro SS, with the backseat removed.

What is the purpose of this design, in that I mean what are you trying to acomplish? A single 8 over a single 15 is not really gonna give you anything added to the system unless the crossovers are kept extremly tight and even then trying to get an 8 that can keep up to the 15 on output level is gonna be tough.

i completely agree with ravendarat. I was going to bring it up but i wanted to address the vehicle first. besides having a 15 that will drown out the 8 (unless you run them at seperate times), why do you want to fire them forward? with vehicles like camaros and firebirds where there isnt a seperate trunk, they most often sound best when the subs are firing straight up at the back glass. Then you can save the back seat area for a nice amp rack or something.
