You dont believe you can get up front bass with woofers in the rear?

Did you listen to any of the cars at finals this year? I didnt have the chance to attend but have in the past listened to many finals vehicles and they never had a problem with achiving that [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

Just curious if any of the people in your class who placed above you had vented doors?

When you come down to the coast this year for any shows I look forward to having this vented doors experience. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Oh.. You had said you listened to the winner of the expert class.. lol confused?

Really cant say as the back was open (Current system uses the back as the enclosure) so for some songs it sounded real good, but others it got really boomy and loose.

I prefered the kicker version of the truck.. One of the best sub systems i have heard, along with steve cornells. Both use the same design/idea, (and was the reason for my sub system). These cars are every bit as good as the best front mounted sub cars around.. IMO

I think you have expert class confused with grand master

Corey himmel was in advanced consumer 1201+.. He won his class and grandmaster

Mark E. won the expert class

On a side note, i think mark beat corey himmel in iasca.. hehe its all subjective LOL

i would like to hear it and talk to them and see how they overcame the obstacles they encountered to get it. chev2, how does your ib set up sound, its something im considering in my neon rebuild [/QUOTE]

I actually use a AP membrane system. Good for SQ, Good for creativity & craftsmanship points [img]smile.gif[/img] .

So in this whole post we have learned that IB doors can help achieve great up front bass.


And venting doors is bad [img]tongue.gif[/img]
