[soulfulgrrl]

I NEED HELP...... i am so fustrated. okay i'll try and explain this. I need ideas lol.. i have a 2000 ford mustang, i already have 1 sob box for 2 12" JL WO's in my trunk but i am going to be putting 2 more 12's in there and i want them to go on the sides of the other box. the 1 big one is facing the open end of the trunk and the other two will be facing eachother i just can't get the dimension right for the other two to fit where i want them to go. any ideas PLEASE SHARE!!!!!! i was thinking that the other 2 boxes could 13" by 11" but i just don't know they are for 12" JL WOs

i think thatll be a little to small of a box for 12s, maybe you could try some 10s...

4 subs huh? wow. is this like a dual bandpass box or 2 separate sealed? How many watts are these anyway?

[soulfulgrrl]

they are 12" JL WO's 8ohm i believe 500watts each, so yeah and they are holdin the subs for me. i just can't think of how to make it all fit in my trunk, can it even be done???

Probably with a lot of work. Are the subs not hitting hard enough? I have 2 Audiobahn 12" 400 watts RMS and ive out pounded a Kicker Comp CVR ($400+ sub) and i spent $150 for the box with the subs. Its a dual bandpass box. Maybe the subs you have just arent loud enough? 2 should be just fine for that enclosed of a space. I doubt that those JLs are 500 watts RMS. RMS is real wattage like Rockford Fosgate subs. They are more efficient and produce better bass. What amp do you have and what RMS?

[soulfulgrrl]

I'm not sure what the rms is i have a 600watt Eclipse amp

In general, you always want all the subs in the same plain. If not, you can get signal cancellation which is not a good thing.

Sounds like a decent amp. I would just save yourself weight and space and get nicer subs that handle a huge amount of power or stay the same.

^^ I agree^^ Better subs and larger amp. My '03 GT has 2 12" DVC HE2's and 2 Fosgate P3001 amps (1 for each sub), wired with a 1 farad capacitor and distribution block. These hit harder than my friends JL W3's and 2000w Alpine amp. BTW, W0's only have 125w RMS compared to Rockford's HE2 which has 400 RMS. I suggest save a little money and get HE2's. My 2 cents.
