I finally think I have figured out how to save space in my Xcab and get 2 12" speakers in there. What if I were to build a cab, that had the speakers facing down that pretty much followed the contour of the floor of the Xcab portion? That way I could set my toolbox/ crap on top of it and not worry about the tools being stolen from a bed mounted box. So, how much sound would be hampered if the subs were facing the floor about 1" from the grills? If I put the ports facing upward, would that help my sound? Thanks!

this is whats called a stealth box. since bass is nondirectional, it would sound fne, jut get ready for all the rattling your tools will be making.

Superb! I will get on it tomorrow. I don't actually use the tools, they are to add a "*****- *****" sound for bass hits. BOOM ***** BOOM ***** BOOM *****.. Pretty cool idea, huh? :stickpoke

You'll want more than 1 inch. The general rule of thumb is 1/3 the speaker diameter. So 4 inches for a 12, 3 inches for a ten, etc....
