I am installing a set of Nakamichi SP 652 components in a 1997 Cavalier.
I am starting to build a set of pods and am wondering if I should leave the back of the pod open (up against the carpet) or enclose it?
Will the carpet absorb the backwave of the midbass and give me less sound?
I have seen pods made both ways on several tutorials and wondered if anyone knows which way is best.

 

i would seal it.

I`ve always cut holes in them.. the response was sumwhat weak.

you can always cut a hole in it later [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

 

Thanks, I will try both ways and see which is best. Nothing wrong with a little sonic experimentation.

 

Experimenting?

What's that?

 

I'm with sealing it allso. I did mine sealed and wanted more the fiber filled it. Now I allmost have too much!
