Best Box for 10" Subs

[beavo5]

I have a Boston Acoustic sealed box for my MA Audio 10"s. Wanting to go to a ported box that I'm going to custom build to mount my subs above my back seat and extend the box towards the trunk. Any ideas or pointers? I've searched for this on other sites, but to my knowledge I have yet to see someone do this... any ideas or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Not too sure what your talking about here Could you possibly clarify a bit more? Are you talking about mounting your subs in your rear deck with the box underneath? If so it is not too easy if you want it to come out right. You would have to work around a whole bunch of stuff including the springs for the trunk lid and what not. I have a friend who does custom audio installs and he has done this in a couple BMW's but it was a lot of fabrication and fiberglass work.

before anything.. find some technical data from the manufacturer of the speaker and find out if what you got is meant for a sealed, ported, bandpass box, or free air.. it should also tell you the recommended size/s of the box and length of the port if so..

Thanks. I found the specifications and they say I can use either sealed or ported.

Yes I am talking about mounting my subs above the rear deck with a ported box underneath. I knew it would be difficult... Just wasn't sure where I needed to start.

Cut a two holes in the rear deck.
Deaden deck
Make a baffle.
Mount the box to the baffle along with port (preferably 4" pipes with flared ends)
Mount subs to baffle.
Done

buy some gas struts to hold the trunk open it will be a lot easier to do if you can remove those trunk springs.
