i just put 2 12" pioneer comps in a seald box in my trunk, i have a decent amp and im vary pleased with sound quality inside the car. but i cant here anything outside the car , i heard ther was some kind of matirial in the trunk that prvents the sound from coming out. dose anyone know what im talking about? is it true? if so dose any one know the steps of taking it out? thanx your help is gratly appreciated

 

Dear god, make it stop.



The only thing that is going to come out of a loud system outside of the car, is more negative attention.

Just aksing for; vandalism, cops, theft...etc

 

well sorry. i dont want to sound like a dick but that wasent my question. thanx anyway

 

dynamat - but thats just to help stop rattling

 

he wants more sound to leak OUT of the trunk. we need a ricecop smiley on this board...

 

Um, not sure how to take all that crap out, but why would you want to anyway. More sound will be able to get out, but a lot more will also come in (road noise, wind noise, exhaust) and will totally ruin your sound quality. I have a kicker solobaric L7 in my car and I can't hear it from the outside. I wish I could, but it should be all about the sound quality in your car, not how well you can impress people with your thumpin bass.

If you wanna be able to hear it from the outside, get 2 10" or 12" kicker solobarics (square) in your trunk and run about 500 watts to each. You'll be rattling your house windows and setting off car alarms in no time.

 

damn hater... i'm sure your buschur 3'' turbo back with no cat makes a wee bit more sound than 2 12s will ever make. Personally i'd take noise pollution over hydrocarbon pollution any day so go back to your hole

to answer the original posters question... isn't not hearing anything outside the car a good thing?? you want the sweet buzz of the license plate frame on the rear bumper? i suppose you could just rip out everything in the trunk down the the metal... or see if 2 12'' or 13'' jl w7's have that same problem

 

You are an idiot. If you think an exhaust is louder than 2 12's then you've heard some ****ty systems. I've got a few friends with 2 12's in the back and they will seriously blow your doors off. If you put a gatorade bottle on the roof it will jump off.

 

it's a hell of a lot louder than the 2 subs he has now that's for damn sure... unlike some i'm trying to stay somewhat on topic...perhaps you could share what type of 12s have in their evo's as this guy probably wants his gatorade bottles jumping... gatorade eh.... you know your from florida when... jp

if the sound "leaks" out, then obviously it will sound like crap. there will be rattling; cheap, crappy, tinny rattling. that's it. if you can't hear the subs outside right now, then clearly they aren't strong enough to make much of an impact (or your amp is too weak). what you should do, if you want louder bass, is to dynamat the crap out of your trunk and get larger subs and stronger. then you won't hear the rattles, but only bass

 

They got JL subs/amps or kicker subs. I don't get the gatorade joke?

 

ok thanks guys. i just wanted to see what u guys can offer me for now i think il just keep it like thatt and try to get a better amp. and then go from there. thanx again

 

Wait, Im confused. Why would you want to have the bass loud outside of the car?

 

ok to put this to rest the sound dampening material is glued the to body it would be near impossible to remove.

 

easy, cut the body panels off the back of the car... then you can not only HEAR the bass, but you can see the subs too!!!
