i must put my sub inside a cabinet behind a solid door. i can vent it in other areas in the cabinet. will this be a good sub? pls advise, thanks

Mine is open, so I can't comment on the sound quality from inside the cabinet. But this is an excellent sub

This could create quite a lot of vibration within and throughout the cabinet. In my experience users have integrated fabric or other acoustically transparent material into the cabinet door

I think that would work....this sub is very compact and the sound quality is tremendous.

Hugh, try it out under your condition and evaluate the result. The woofer is powerful; therefore, that cabinet perhaps will produce an unwanted sound of its own.

I honestly don't think any sub would work real well inside a closed cabinet, so it might rattle the cabinet horribly. Subs are not directional, so as long as it's not cranked up, and the cabinet is really solid, it might work. The MiniVee is nice and small, so it might be your best option.

I think you'd be happy with this unit. In my Ram, I have mine mounted under the back seat. There's a dial mounted on my dash to control the sub level. I think it goes to 10. The Geek Squad guys set it to 2.5 and I rarely need to have it any higher. Nice thing is, the bass on my stereo speakers is now at -2, so the sub saves the wear and tear on the door speakers while providing that rich, full sound and good bass.

The sub Box you need is a box with a air volume of .80You can make any Design of box as long as it has a air volume of .80 or as close to that as possible I have two of these subs and my air volume for each box is .78 wich is really close to it and it won't make a difference for tht little bit off from .80

These fans are not really made to mount in a cabinet like that... I ran into that problem myself... I did go ahead and cut a hole in my cabinet and mounted the best I could and they work fine... These are basically made to just sit beside, under or back of your equipment... You might be a better carpenter than I am and can make it work for you... Hope this helps!

Depends on where you mount it I imagine. I set mine up 4inches below the Flat screen mounted on my wall. Sounds epic ! I hid the sub behind the sofa in a corner.

Nate you will probably need a shallow mount subwoofer if you want to fit in the door. It will probably rattle your door trim apart I wouldn't recommend a door install.

You can definitely run your 2 subs whit this amp if they ate dual cabinets youll have a 2 omhs load per side which is fine. Then youll need another amp tobrun your tops. If you run you'll compete rig with this amp is not recomended cause youll have an 2 ohms load which is not recomended for this type of amp. It also depends in your gear's specs.

I would say no, this is pretty weak. I have one 15 or 17 inch sub and this doesnt compare to the previous one that I blew out. I'm not very knowlegable on other amps but because I have this one, I would say try to inquire about another one. lol

The Sub has a 450w max and 200w rms. You may have trouble with your sattalites. The sub has a really nice response. Takes alittle time to break in. also depends on where you put it, needs some room to breath...But you should be fine. Nice sounding..

I have always had sealed enclosures for my subs in the past and I bought a ported for the w7 and I was not disappointed. There is a guy on eBay that sells custom w7 enclosures but they are pretty expensive. That's who I bought mine from. Since this sub already has great SQ, I think you should go ported to max out your sound. Make sure the box you buy is Jl specs because I have read if it's not, it might not sound the best

What ever you decide, make shure you buy or build a good enclosure. The enclosure can make or break a sub. I would steer clear of prefab boxes, I would highly recommend getting ahold of Dustin Cambron of DC Creations and have him build you a enclosure to fit your needs. Go to caraudio.com, he is a moderator on that site and does wonderful builds for about what you will pay for a crappy prefab box. He goes by the user name of prorabbit.

This is an amp for like door speakers. There is no bass control. So no this would not be good for a sub

This sub is 12 inches deep, but the connections are in the back of the unit. You will need at least 2 or 3 inches more depth for these connections

ChrisI have the same situation, the sub is in the far corner of my combined kitchen / family room, to the far left of my TV and sound bar. The location in the room makes no difference as far as I can tell. In fact the setup menu lets you adjust the sub for location, but I just leave it on the default which sounds great.I am planning to get on remote speaker to sit behind me in the kitchen so I will have full surround sound.Good luck to you!

It needs some airflow, we installed it in the back of our entertainment unit in the cabinet that holds the speakers, but there is an air gap between the unit and the wall-- ours isnt installed directly in the wall. this product basically a set of fans, so its pulling air from behind and pushing the air over the component (at least in our set up) so can you achieve that airflow in your closet?

Yes.it will rock your house.One bad think though.i hope you don't blow up your sub.More than enough power.

It hits really hard. Not like a competition deep sub, but it is very impressive for a shallow sub. Unless you have a really high quality deep mount sub and high watt amp, you won't be able to tell the difference.
