Re: Where to put sound dampening stuff

You'll probably get the best output from your sub with it sitting right at the back of the trunk (aft) facing backwards. If you do that, the point that's "closer to the sub" and the "end of the car" will be the same spot, and yes that's where you would concentrate your deadening.

Re: Where to put sound dampening stuff

Right, the sub should probably be sitting where that "farthest away" arrow is drawn with the cone facing backwards (towards the trunk lid sitting a few inches away). In a sedan this location gives the least cancellation and therefore the most output and best sound quality. A few sedans don't follow this rule, but the majority do.
