Well, the trick is to be a good observer, at least at the beginning when we don't have much experience.

For instance, did you notice a torn cone on my picture?

The bottom right hand sub? I noticed it but thought it was just the picture lol. I try to examine every pic I see if it applies to what I am trying to do lol. Bin studying older extreme builds and as many new ones as I could find for months now. So I am trying to get in my homework I want to do it the right way so I hope you dont mind but I will have a lot more questions to ask of you lol.

Generally horns and other 'air couplers' that work well in large open spaces don't work as well in cars.

Yep, and actually is not difficult to understand why. Most horns have a low volume sealed chamber for the loudspeaker (requiring a high BL high excursion driver) and walls for the acoustic impedance matching.

I'd say in some ways this is how a box works inside a car.

Ask a competitor and you will hear about "the smaller the box, louder it gets" or "the less drivers I use, louder it gets"
