In an SUV? What about the rear seats?

To tell you the truth Bill I think your best bet will be sub/ports on the same plane. Sub pushed off to the drivers side..ports on the passenger side. I dont see much benifit in running I suppose you can do 5, but I think 4 will do the trick honestly.

I agree sounds like that will give you the best bang for your buck

u want the port on the opposite side of the meter. in meca its measured in the kick so im doing opposite of what you suggested i think

oh i forgot....i have never been in an suv....just kidding of course i have been in an suv.....but certainly if we are talking about a vehicle for pure spl there are going to be some compromises and since bill has an audio business i think he will be forced into a higher class where more modifications are allowed(and forgive me for not memorizing the rule book, its on file at work but i dont have it at home)
