Hey Guys,
I'm planning a 10" or 12" sub for the trunk just to round off my upgraded sound system - I was planning on probably making my own box for it and the amp but I was wondering, if there is indeed one, what is the best angle for the sub to be mounted at would be, i.e. straight up. straight back towards the end of the car, straight forward to the front or at a 45 degree angle... any thoughts? Also does the box need to be any specific size in relation to the sub size beyond physically holding it? Thanks for the advice LST This post has been edited by LastOfTheSTs: Aug 31, 2008 - 11:58 AM |

The size of the box needs to correspond with the requirements of the sub woofer. The angle in a hatch back will always be facing stright back, idealy with a 5-10degree angle upward as to reflect the waves ultimately to the crest of your back. G/L.
