I just finished my enclosure of 8 mtx subs. The vehicle is a 2002 denali and the enclosure is vented. I have the vent to the rear of the truck facing up. I am curious to see if I spin the box around and have the vent near the rear seats, would it make a difference? I know that if I push the enclosure all the way to the rear door that it drops a few db's. When I push it cloer tward the front it gains. I am already at 149db and know that it has more potential. I will be upgrading amps soon. I am currently running  4 majestic monoblocks(600rms) to all of the subs. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Michael

Oh and I tried to flip the enclosure up to a wall but its 1.5 inches too tall(dammit)........

most of the time subs facing up and port facing the rear bumber give the best result.


what kind of mtx sub you have?
