I got a wicked system.. 2 450w mids with clarion equalizer and a 1400w poweracostic amp and a pioneer champion series 10"...if im in car bass shakes it up..noise all over door/trunk beats up...the mirror jiggles and if i put bottle on trunk it shakes off...but when i go outside i hear no bass very little LOL!!! but i hear the trunk making ole noise...help lol

Why you want bass outside? To disturb people like me? lol All those rattles absorb sound energy as well.

SPL bro....ur system probably not designed to produce high spl and just making ah set ah Ole noise with the high end of the bass spectrum.

Change your enclosure type . tell me what type of port speaker and box dimensions . I can help sort you out .

I've had that same problem your having before in my first install .speaker and box tunning was totally off using round port and I burnt the speaker after jamming too hard over a period of 1 month Lol suggestion is get a box built to the recommended specs that the instructions says to .

just play up with the placement of the box in the car and see if that work BEFORE you decide to waste a whole sheet of MDF

sounds like your bass got treble

Im gonna attempt to build a t-line transmission box for it...lol ...i got a plan for a 12" sub but im gonna readjust for the 10" i got..btw..my bass plays loud just now outside..and its a normal ported box..

^ bro you cant just scale transmission lines like that. Do some research first on the design, consider your subwoofer parameters and then model it.

why not ;(

I hope you know a sealed box might be louder than a t-line , just fyi.

Abraham2nd · Postby **Abraham2nd** » October 15th, 2014, 3:54 pm

u sure??? i hear ported it the way to goo :O

meccalli · Postby **meccalli** » October 15th, 2014, 4:07 pm

T line isn't ported(a proper one at least). Ported refers to a bass reflex enclosure like what you currently have now. If you're happy with it in the car, that's all that really matters.

Maybe one of those gallery guys can chime in to help you if you insist. They run alot more than you have however, you may not realise it but further away from the car, because of the wave nature of sound, it may be louder than when you're closer to it.

What's the specs of the box tho?

and the model # of the sub

Place audio on car hood.

Try sum sound damping on ur trunk. Also repositioning ur sub wud help wit d bass exiting d vehicle. If space is an issue try inverting.

first thing ... your car is an enclosure so no sense having great sound system and everywhere vibrating. First thing is to identify all these rattle points and fix them.....a rattle free car is a must for good overall sound quality. Next it's not all about power but the selection and matching of components. My system consists of 1x600W RE amp, RE Components, RE 6x9s and a 10" Image Dynamics IDQ10 sub in properly specd ported box. The sound is clean and powerful ... tight bass, crisp mids and highs and that's cause it was properly tuned. From outside the vehicle the sound is rich, bass is tight and you can feel it ... not that that was what I was looking for .... I'm more sq than gallery....but it was a side benefit from a system installed by a professional. If I had to do it on my own I would have never thought this configuration would work .... no substitution for professional knowledge.

T-lines totally different from ported boxes, although they can look the same

Ported boxes rely on the volume of the cavity and the cross sectional area + length of the port to determine the resonant frequency.

T-line just relies on the length of the pipe to determine the tuning frequency.
It has no cavity, the sub just in a long pipe, when folded it tends to look like a ported box with a big arse port.

If you unfold it, it go just be a long arse pipe

THe formula for this simpler too, just make the pipe a quarter of the wavelength of the tuning frequency
