Default How do you guys secure your subwoofer box?

Mine slide all over the place in the trunk and I am looking for a qick way to keep them in one place. Just curious to see if anyone here had done anything creative?

I let it swing with the crowd. It's young and likes to move it move it.

I may head back a little early. Living with my parents is driving me insane. Joanna is coming up from Dec 29th until Jan. 8th.. After that, I don't have much reason to not go back upstate.

Default yeah get some ATV trailer tiedowns.

they usually come in pairs, found at hardware stores or magazines. each end of the braided material has hooks that will fit under the cargo net's hooks that you can then strap around the subwoofer enclosure and tighten down with the lever. if they're in one enclosure two will be fine, but if they are separate you might want to buy three or four of the previous. i've driven mine without these on but the subwoofer slams around and actually will disconnect itself from the wiring because of the reach, so with these on i can slam on the brakes and it won't budge an inch. good luck.

as for the old crowd, if you don't understand why someone would want amps and subs, don't bother learning! it's great fun but it gets expensive fast and it's so easy to blow money away on toys such as JL W7's which by the way produce great sound but are expensive as hell. I have infinity kappas in a custom JL box i bought from ebay, they are the old skool tho they are green instead of the new aluminum colored ones. sound is very decent, but they are 10" so it could be a lot better with a bigger woofer.
