1 18 right in the middle, thats just me tho.

x2, 2-15"s or 1-18" but to know exactly what can be done measurements of your trunk would be better than a picture.

i was thinking three 15's in a wedge enclosure

That would be smart if you could fit 3-15"s, the batteries, amps and still have room to let the air flow get around the box and into the cabin from the trunk.

Are you willing to lose the spare.

Take some measurements of the space you want to use for a box.

Also are you building the box yourself?

yes im willing to lose the spare but i might have to fiberglass the bottom because it have a hump right in the middle of the trunk, if four 12's can fit im pretty sure three 15's can fit back there the amps will hopefully be on a amp rack and the batteries will be on each side. but the only thing that i really been thinking about is will it be better to go three sealed 15's with about 1200-1500 watts on each or two ported 15's with 2300-2700 watts. Which will give me a better output?

Two 15"s with power regardless of how much should have better output.

what ever happen to that theory of cone area? there's no replacement for displacement?

That usually is same size box, same amount of power then yeah but that still does not always apply. Tha actual subwoofers themselves play a role but ported boxes have more output than sealed boxes so that flat out tells you.

Well if that is your subwoofer of choice then why would you ask about them being sealed when they are not made to be ran sealed. Do a little more research before jumping to a conclusion on your car audio.

i know they are made for sealed i wasnt thinking about putting them in a sealed enclosure. I wanted to run three sealed 15's NOT THE BTLS but since you stated that ported will give me more output my choice of subs NOW is the BTL's
