Can't go wrong with Eclipse's Ti or Al lines though. great subs. TL boxes give extended low end response with no coloration (unlike ported boxes) so they are extremely accurate and offer good cone control, but they tend to be rather large enclosures, and not all subs work in a TL setup. Not the easiest boxes to build. |

However, my Toyota Corolla trunk internal measurements are as follows: 21"high 62" wide 32" deep The cabinet would take up about half of my trunk space if my judgement is correct. I will get measurements when I have a chance to hear it in my trunk with my choice of music. I will give my impressions and take some photos as well on Wednesday the 23rd. |
