Hi guys,
Tried all kinds of subs and enclosures in my LPG VS. Trying to keep my boot as a useful container, which means having a compact and well located sub/subs which are not exposed to damage by the contents of the boot. LPG makes this a little hard, because obviously the tank takes up all the space behind the seats.
I currently have a little single 8" sub in a portable enclosure, which actually almost meets my needs.. I like bang not boom (rock not rap) and the sub is mainly just to get some extra kick into the bass, and add just a little rumble. I do NOT want a multi 18" 50 million watt setup. It would just get in the way.
I've considered separating the area where the LPG tank sits and using that as an enclosure, with the tank inside, heavily wrapped in sound foil. Would this work? I am thinking there is probably enough space around the tank to provide enough air volume, just not sure what having the tank in the middle of the box will do to the sound. I'd just have to make sure I have some decent speaker grills on for protection and that would leave me the rest of the boot to use for carrying kids in (oops carrying kids stuff i mean )
I'd love to hear ideas and see pics of compact boot installations that include an LPG tank or don't use the space where it would sit. I'm thinking a couple of 8" (or maybe 10" but that might be a bit boomy for my taste dunno..)
Look forward to seeing some ideas thanks !
