Which way to face my sub

[Waterwookiee]

So, I built a cab for a 10" sub, but I didn't like how much leg room it sacrificed, so I did it again for an 8". I have a 200w 8" polk coming from Crutchfield and it should be great when I have it all together.

So, I realized today, that I could either fire the sub into the back of seat, or space it a tad (like 1") and fire it right into the steel wall behind my seat. Suggestions? That might be a cool way to experiment.......

Pics coming soon, now that I am almost done with this install.

(wait until you see what I am covering this sub cab with......... )

if u have capatain chairs u can make an enclosure as the center console

firing it into the steel wall might make it vibrate thus making it sound bad...

when i was in 5th grade, mind u im 21 now lol, my teachers bf worked for sound advice. he had a ford ranger w/ a box in the bed of the truck w/ a huge port going into the truck..JESUS that thing was loud. from inside the class u could hear it and the class was far.

With only 1" between the hard surface of the back wall and front of the sub it will most likely "pre-load" and won't sound very good. A console as mentioned would be a great idea if possible otherwise firing into the back of the seat will sound better (and give you a massage if it's behind the drivers seat )
