What have I done wrong? I gave you a box design but obviously it's not gonna work since we didn't have dimensions. Then I ask you to please drop you're attitude and come back with dimensions and then we can help you. Honestly what about my posts made you not wanna deal with me?

The fact that you mentioned to someone who is fairly new to car audio to not even start a thread without dimensions. How is ANYONE supposed to learn anything without starting threads, asking questions, etc. ?

You're an ass lol

 

How can you ask for help, and not provide any information for us to do so?

 

Grab dimensions

tell us your sub(s)

amp(s)

music choice

your goals

etc

 

Yes, all of this is needed information

I posted dimensions...

 

about 90% sure i want a ported enclosure...

 

looking for opinions on subs and amp.(I REALLY like the DCON subs) this will be a daily setup, but I want to be able to feel it when I turn it up ..

 

I listen to everything besides screamo music ..

 

Only goals are to sound good, be loud enough to feel, and be hidden

 

also not going to upgrade my electrical system

You're totally right there. You do have to ask questions to get answers but kinda common sense, to me at least, that if you want a box design you would need to know what dimensions we can use so it would fit.

That's like going to a real estate agent saying you want to buy a house but not telling them how much money you have to spend. How are they suppose to know what to even look for. Similar to your box design. We honestly can't even start without dimensions.

Not trying to be a dick or anything. If you don't know then ask but there's a lot of things that can be found with a quick google search (not saying you would find this but for other things).

Your goals are very subjective. Sounding good to you might sound like shit to me. And being loud enough to feel, mostly anytime bass is playing you're feeling it so it's hard to distinguish how loud you want. Loud to me is wayyyyyy louder than what my mom thinks is loud lol

I was thinking about this, but 1.4 total is not big enough for what I'm wanting in a ported box. I've heard of people getting almost 2.5 cu. ft under the seat.
