It is one big box , not two separate boxes. it also appear's to be
sealed pretty good , but what i'm wondering is should I insert a piece
of particle board to make it two separate enclosures in the same box
or is it worth it. Also how densly (sp?) packed should it be really 
tight or just enough to fill it.

( plus this box is in the trunk of a 1968 chevy , so it has to go
through a steel panel then through the seat etc. etc. )
I've heard that it should use the trunk as ""one big box"" is this 
true??

thanks alot

	Crutchfield sells PAC Bass Blockers. They connent to the
positive wire of the speaker and filter out the bass.

	For blocking 300 Hz (4 ohm) and below they only cost $4 each

	I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for but I thought
you might as well know about them.

To all who replied... thanks!
What I decided to do was rip the unit apart.  After looking around, I found
a quite blown apart transistor.  I couldnt personally read the numbers
on it, but a friend with a magnifying glass figured em out.  I went
to radio shack, and they didnt have it.  I went to 2 other electronic
stores in Ann Arbor, and neither of them had it or could cross reference 
it.  So I checked in Parts Express.  They had it.  For 87 cents.  Great!
Out of stock.  Of course it couldnt be that easy :)  I found the number
for MCM elecronics and gave them a ring, they had them and in stock
also. 80 cents this time, but a minimum order of $25 :)  So I had to buy
a few blank tapes.  Anyway, hopefully this will take care of my problem,
and nothing else got blown also.  Oh, btw, there *is* an inline fuse
to the remote lead.  It specifies a .5amp fuse.  I bought the unit
second hand from a friend who obviousely decided that a 10amp fuse
would do the job :)  I know I shoulda checked it before installing
it, but oh well.  Ill just pray that little b1243 transistor was the only
problem.

I dare you to try and get an "LS" without a stereo!  Maybe it can be done,
but I'd bet it'd be *really* hard  to do on a Japanese car (I know, it 
could well be build in Michigan, but can you *order* a Japanese-make?)

I'd be willing to bet that the top-line system AM/FM/at-least-casette
is a part of what's included in the LS package... to lose the radio you
gotta lose the other goodies too.)

   A company called PAC makes active crossovers for this purpose.  They make
basic xovers.  You can get a sub only with one of two xover points, you can
get a two way, three way, or high pass or whatever.  Just tell them what you
need and they can fix you up. I'm not sure of the address though, sorry.
You can look in some of the audio publications (CA&E, AS&S, & CSR) and they
might have the address. I know Crutchfield sells them so look there too.
The don't cost but $40-$60 or so so they're a good deal.
hope this helps. see ya

I think that using mail order isn't to bad if you call the manufactur(sp?)
and find out if they are an authorized dealer.  If their not I'd head the

with Sound City.  They were an authorized dealer of what I needed.  Of course
I had no trouble with the item I bought.  If I had it might be a different

I was afraid you'd say that... Hmm.. ok, how about his, The car has these
useless 5 1/4" ers behind the seats, they are really weak, not to mention
11 years old and probably rotten. However, they are where seats would have been
if it was not a 2 seater, thus there is a LOT of space behind 'em, mabye I
should "stealth install" the 6X9"s there just for a little re inforcement,
then go with the 1" and 5" drivers in the box for the back, any suggestions
for driver/crossover brands? Its sounding kinda expensive though, I dunno
If I want to shell out more than another $100-$200 for decent stuff.

I hope to replace the dying 4"ers in the front with Polk 4"ers and driver them
of the head unit. Also, what about porting? Should I do it? I probably won't
get lower than 50-60Hz with the planned 2.5 cu. ft. Box, which isn't so hot.

I want to add some very clean, flat, accurate bass to my system.  The people
at my ususal stereo store scoff at all bazooka-type subs.  The system recomm-
ended to me follows:

Dual Boston Acoustic ProSeries 8.0LF drivers, each installed in a separate,
custom-built enclosures.  Two bridged Nakamichi PA-202's, and perhaps an
active cross-over.  Needless to say, I'm pretty sure this will sound quite
good, but would cost more than $1200.00.  That's WAY too much for me right
now.  My question:  Are there any high-end bazooka's (or other sub systems)
that can deliver a descent amount of very clean, flat bass for <$500.

Two questions:

Will bass sound be noticibly effected if woofers in a sealed box are firing
not into "open air", but first into a large duct that reaches "open air" ?
I'm thinking about building a sealed cabinet that's about 4 or 5 inches above
the floor, with the woofers pointed toward the floor.  This way, I can mount
all the amps and crossovers on the accesable side of the cabinet.

I need recomendations on any kind of books/printed material/text files that
describe all the different kinds of speaker cabinets and isobaric cabinets,
tell how they are conctructed, and the theories behind them.

Good fix, typical part location story (it helps to have an ECG or NTE
supplier nearby and a master selection guide or databook at hand).
Only suggestion I can offer is it might have been a good idea to buy
5-10 of them at that price and level of hassle -- if the deck blows
another transistor it would be nice to have a few spares lying around.
You wouldn't believe how many componenet failures can be traced to
dead silicon transistors..
