hey guys!im thinkin about selling my two 12's JL audio b/c they wont fit right in my rx8...i think they are too bIG....soo im planning on buying two 8' kicker solo barics...does anyone have the dimensions of the box for this so it can fit right behind the rear seats...thank you!

 

The first thing that you need to consider, is the recommend enclosure volume for those woofers. You can find all of the specs for those woofers at www.kicker.com. Taking those specs into account, you'll then have an idea of how much air space the subs will need, and make sure you factor in driver displacement.

There is plenty of trunk space in the 8 to accomodate an enclosure for those drivers. If you aren't knowledgable in calculating enclosure volumes, your best bet will be to have a professional build your box for you.

 

kewl!thenks alot man!imma get one of my freinds to help me build my box..

 

Please document your installation with pictures on this forum. I'm thinking of installing a single 8" Solobaric in my RX-8, possibly in the storage bin between the seats.

I had a 10" Solo in my Dodge Stealth but it's too big and heavy (about 25lbs with fiberboard enclosure) for my RX. I'm willing to sacrifice some low bass to prevent excess weight and hurting performance.

 

oh yeah i will..i wanna make mines look real nice...i just gotta find the time..

 

they wont fit???

I have two 12inch JL w-3 subs in my rx8

 

i have two tens in my trunk, with the proper sized box, it takes up a good bit of the trunk, but i still have a decent amount of space... also put my 2 amps in there too, in the little sunken part in the trunk....... good thing i dont have kids or have alot of stuff to carry

 

mikeb....yeah theyll fit..but i kinda want it to look a lil cleaner and have more space...

kidcas...oh frill.thats kewl..do u have any pictures of it..wha kind of subs u got and amps..why do you have 2 amps?
