Note!

 The performance of the recommen-

ded enclosures will vary from vehicle to 
vehicle. It is more difficult to get a tight and 
well defined bass in a SEDAN vehicle 
because of the separated space between 
the trunk and the passenger compartment. 

In smaller vehicles of different models (like 
a VW Golf, Peugeot 206, 306, etc. the 
enclosure should be installed with the 
subwoofer directed backwards or directed 
upwards. This way of mounting is valid for 
all types of vehicles where the trunk is 
incorporated with the inner compartment.

In sedan vehicles where the passenger 

Enclosure placement

compartment is separated from the trunk, 
one option is to install enclosure with the 
subwoofer directed towards the rear seat. 
Some cars have an opening in the middle 
of the rear seat for storage. You can install 
the enclosure behind this opening and 
direct speaker through this opening. Be 
sure you seal the sides of the enclosure 
with additional covering so no pressure will 
slip between the opening and your 
subwoofer and into the trunk area. The 
floor and sides in the trunk area can also 
be good alternatives for the enclosure 
placement.

In large vehicles like station wagons the 
best sound is achieved with the enclosure 
installed behind the rear seat with subwoo-
fer directed backwards.  Alternatively you 
can install the enclosure on one side of the 
luggage compartment.

Calculate enclosure volume

When calculating the inner volume of an enclosure you just multiply the width (W) x height (H) x 
depth (D). Use measures in dm and you will get the answer in litres.

H

W

UD

LD

Vol = Width(W) x Height (H) x (Upper depth(UD) + Lower depth(LD))
