Where to put the amp?

Hey Im going to have a huge 1.25x2 dual 12" Qlogic enclosure tomorrow IN THE TRUNK and I wondered whats the best place for the amp?

before when I had mono 10" bandpass box I just screwed the amp to the back of the box. And because I was able to swivel the box inside of the trunk it wasnt too unconvenient with connections.

Box this huge box thats gonna come is a completely diff story.
Where should I screw the amp to? I want to be able to pull the amp out if I need to do tuning, thats why im letting the wires a little longer.


Also,


POSITIVE AND GROUND wires, what are recommended lengths for them?

Is it better to run power wires on one side and audio and remote wire on the other side?

Re: Where to put the amp?

Positive depends on power consumption and ground no longer then 3'.

AS for the amp use the back of the seat if there fold down. If not the side or top of the sub box if theres room.

Don't ever look at cars as just imports or domestics. Just because a car is made in a certain country doesn't mean that it is anything like another car from that country. An example of this is Mitsubishi reliability, just because they are Japanese doesn't mean that they are as reliable as a Honda or Toyota.
