Traveling Bass in a Convertible, Opinions on Designs

aortiz10 · 02-08-2009, 10:42 AM

Hi, I would like to here opinions on Subwoofer designs, Setups, And enclosures for a Convertible to produce traveling low hertz bass with the top up and down.
I have built many design in my 98 Mustang Convertible for Soundoff Contest and have hit as high as 154.3 DB's in a Usaci competition.
This my car i have brought to the competitions
http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2405124
Now i am looking to build a system using the back seat or trunk or both to produce that sound quailty traveling bass, not that loud rattling bass tat you can't enjoy in the car.

has anyone done this in a convertible
If so what speakers, enclosure and postions was used.

I have thought of using a 3 high end 10" subs in the back seat in seal box facing front but don't think it will sound good with the top down

Thanks for any opinions you can provide

Don't tell Hoss this is a SQ only forum. His 158db in his former truck was using those SQ only SI woofers.

I'd still like to see you SPL guys use some v4's in a 4'th order bandpass enclosure. I've got some blemished woofers that I would donate to the cause.
