That's going to be a spl monster

what's series jls are you going to be running?

What kind of sound deadener are you using?

It looks like a really clean instal for a spl beast, my only concern would be with your ports that close to the rear hatch that it will change your tuning. ...but with that much cone area I don't know that it will matter

I'm using eDead sounddeadining

The subs will be jl 15wov2-4

As for the ports it has about eight inches of clearance from the liftgate
This setup is geared more for music than SPL, box tuned@25HZ.

It wouldn't hurt to meter it just to see what is does.

Just a thought.

Post by **Bfowler** » Sun Oct 03, 2010 11:20 pm

No offence meant to you as I see it alot but when did putting foam under vinyl become cool for installs ? The only time I put foam under something I wrap in vinyl is on a bar stool. personally it's not my taste in vinyl wrapping but as long as you like it is all that matters.

is the box painted or covered? I can't tell what it is....

Box is cover with vinly. The port opening will be painted with flexstone textured painting a bigger JL logo.

It will look alot better once everything is installed.

The reason i use foam is to keep stuff like knicks and ding from surfacing on the fabric.

I bought this huge emblem from a jl dealer recently and planned to have it flushed mounted on top of the enclosure.

Post by **ttocs** » Mon Oct 04, 2010 12:12 pm

thought the subs were on top and taking up most of the room?
