custom trunk install
hey whats up everyone
i have an oz matrix elite 12 and arc kar 1000.2t

i've always been into nice big ported boxes, but now i want to do a sealed box that looks really cool and so i can show off my amp too

any suggestions on something or pics of installs?

i want to stay away from fiberglass cuz its hard, and i wanna do this myself because of my limited budget


thanks

Close to maximum trunk space… and a functional trunk with a functional spare.

yeah, they're not the loudest things...but they sound freakin sweet! its plenty loud for me though, im not into big boomy bass, id rather have SQ

what sort of box did you have them in? and did you have the 2nd coil open, looped or with a resistor?? i just left it open but im wondering the difference.
