im guessing thats your box in your sig.
if so for comps let the back seat down turn your box around facinging into the cab(this will not sound as good but...)and with the 2 big amps you should get in the 50's with no prob
and when the comps over just turn your box back around
but a wall would be nice

you should get 55-57 with it still being tuned low for street beating

um, sorry to burst your bubble, but i built the box, it can't be turned around or taken out there is a piece that is on the back that is 7" high 30" wide and like 15" deep, so it's really impossible to turn it around, this is what the back of the box looks like

his old amp was screwed to this, i think that he will be able to put his new 2 amps on there now.
anyway, just thought i'd tell ya why he wants a wall

you have got to be joking, that ain't going to happen from the trunk, no matter which way the box is faced. If you are doing 146's now, w/the bd1500, adding the 2 1200d's will give at most 3db's, putting you ever so close to 150, but not quite. I'd say your going to have to go with a wall if you want to get a higher score. I would make a wall, you'd limited on space, but it can be done with much success. If you build a wall in the back, you can probably get 12-14cubes, make a big port, 300+in of port, and then you shoud be at mid 150's (53-54)w/2,400watts. 2.5cubes is almost nothing in terms of ported volume for a 15, you need atleat 5cubes and 66in of port to get decent results. You can still have it tuned low enough to listen too, or you can use a plug port that tunes it lower for daily driving. I had one of my boxes(walls) tuned to 44hz, and it peaked at 53hz, and played music just like any other box. Once you get the wall, you should have no trouble beating the guy w/8 12's!

Wall for sure. about 7+ cubes each would be great. I have a 93 lude, and we both know you never use that back seat . Then you will have a lot more room in the trunk too

Yeah i got a lude too, what has honda thinking when they designed that trunk and back seats? They've left you with no choice. Wall it off.
