before we go off topic here
i didnt say i like him, and no i didnt read into that theory but i glanced over it and it didnt interest me at all. what did interest me a great deal is his theory of hawking-bekenstein radiation anyway back on track +1 for what marc said i did a few systems and my current one is the best so far. the car itself (hatch compared to previous sedans) has alot to do with the end sound output Tony |

Sorry about the off topic. Lets talk about the sub box shall we ?
Personally I would try to install it in the side wall and keep the boot space. This is because my boot has been taken over by the sub/amps ( big box in the middle, amp in a false floor ) and my rear seats are getting damaged from carrying stuff that really should have gone in the boot. |

Sorry but i'll put in my 2c. I've got the subs in the side wells, yes its a great idea and saves u lots of space. Dynamat is a good idea. Just be carefull of what subs u put in, cause i have the 10" pioneeer slims and nearly all the grills u find just don't fit over the rubber they have on the subs rim. I made my side well boxes out of marine ply and bog (just to smooth the outside)with a fiberglass lining on the inside.

You can if the resulting impedance ( ohms) is supported by the amp.
You need to know: whether the subs are single or dual voice coil the ohms rating of each voice coil the supported ohms rating of the amp Read up on matching subs to amps. There's an easy tool on the available combinations here : http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/wo...igurations.asp as well as a lot of other useful bits of information. |

Yes.
Each channel = 1 speaker You'll want a monoblock amplifier ( which means that it just has 1 channel ) for the sub. |
