6 12s in a trunk

Post by Mithrandir »

I saw the guys post about him gettin 4 re 12s well i was thinkin, if i got 6 I could use my jbl 1200 watt amp and only be givin em each like 25 watts over the recommended power. I was wondering is it possible to fit 6 12s in a trunk and have room left? Not like massive storage room but like room for the amps to be mounted and maybe a little space for a tool box.

Hopefully I can just stick with my job long enough to make a little cash, its telemarketing and i hate it :(

well that depends on the car, dont expect any room left in any trunk. maybe if you make a box with the subs facing up... id go for the 10"s or 8"s if you want to save room. also you would probably have to build the box inside the car?

ISOBARIK

Especially if your pressed for space.

Take sup half the space as sealed. Although it is said there is no actual gain for the extra woofers. So if you have a total of 4 it will be the same SPL or close to just 2 in a standard sealed.

Tough call!

whats the point of isobarik then? It seems like a waste of cash to me lmao. You would be better off just using sealed. I did plan on going sealed by the way, I wish someone in town sold Resonant Enginnering so I could see how loud each model is

Isobarik loading is just reversing the sub (it sticks out rather than in). The box is still sealed. It just saves internal space.
