I believe subthump.com has a box to where you can still squeeze your t-tops in the back. Look them up.

Here's my old setup with two 12"s in a Q-Logic box. Two W6s and a bd1500 and a cap. Box is for sale. I don't take my T-tops out very often and when I did I'd just put them in the backseat.

I'd def. go with a subthump box looks a lot cleaner than just having them chilling on the rear.

I guess I'm alone on this but I like the look of the Q-Logic box over the Subthump and to me the t top storage is overrated. Is there anything in the subthump box to keep the t-tops from slapping against each other or a divider or something? When I rarely removed my t-tops I would put them in towels in the backseat or leave them at home, that seemed better than stuffing them in a slot under under a speaker box though that wasn't an option the q-logic but I considered both before buying the q-logic.

i slip a towel between them. and trust me i think its worth it (although i like the qlogic look alot more.) i take my t-tops off alot. bit its a perfect fit i have no scratches on them and i have slammed on the brakes with them in the back and nothing happened. if you can find a good deal and take ur tops off alot its def worth it.( i got mine 150 shipped from a guy on here. the only thing is it has ss written on it)

Love that amp!! I'm debating on getting one of those to add to my 5-channel amp. I am not pushing my RE SE's nearly to what they can handle although it does sound good now. I think I may be able to make it sound even better with a stronger amp pushing the RE's.

Ya they are good amps, you can usually find them used on ebay around $300-$450 depending on condition. I like RF amps but I only mess with the punch series.

yes i can see out the back window fucktard. i can pull them out anytime i want and i didnt waste 300+ on a pos subthump box that is built like crap.

and i dont drive like a jackstaff so rear-ending someone is unlikely. and if you think that 120 lbs box is gonna fly off the shelf, your wrong.GTFO

yea, umm, idk if your sure about this, but there is a way to fix things to the floor, i believe it is called mounting, you know they do it with nuts and bolts sometimes? that 100 pound box and subs wont come off that shelf, and they def wont kill him unless its some final detination ****
