you fcukin idiots- the 'free air' sub uses the boot as an enclosure. if you dont separate the front and the back of the sub, it wont move any air at all.

you have to have the parcel shelf in to separate the two air spaces....

:facepalm:

J@SNOT yes mine does have the under shelf liner on the inside of the boot.

I'll give the little sacked another crack but this time I'll put it all back together as suggested :-)

Cheers

hahaha

The parcel shelf has heaps of slots and holes, and the trim doesn't seal sh*t. In fact, the sub sits about an inch below the top parcel shelf trim - not on top of it.The trim is flimsy board covered in carpet. It obviously makes a difference installed, as the low frequencies have something to load from as mentioned, but you're theory of 'separating' the air is incorrect.

Oh and 'unopenned' is not a word. Try unopened.

old_mate, I thought the same thing about the parcel shelf and lower cover. I did not think they would make any difference so did not bother putting it all back together.

I have some dynamat on the underside of my parcel shelf, but would like to put some on top as well just to make it a bit more solid. It would not take much to mould a fibreglass enclosure and mount it under the parcel shelf, so may look at making something when I have some spare time to kill.

Cheers

I dont have an fg to look at the parcel shelf, but the fact remains the same. separate the front to the back or nothings gonna happen. seal up the holes n siht and it will sound 10 times better...

Brought one of these subs after reading thread. Alberts car stereo was only two doors up from Jaycar so decided to pick up two sheets of dynamatt $70.00. Completed install with dynamatt.

The bass is much much puncher and cleaner in sound, big improvement.

It also improved bass down at lower volumes.

Drove around for a week before deciding to Dynamatt front doors.

But this time I went to Jaycar and picked 4 x Response sound deadener 1.5mm for $107.00

Sheet sizes are 900mm by 350mm.

Was not sure how much the sound would improve and improve it did!

It has tightened up the system and added extra depth to the bass.

I still have one sheet left which I intend to use on the rear doors.

Great improvement over stock!

Cheers for heads up on the sub J@.
