I'm concerned about my amp being attached to the top of my sub box, i know vibrations are bad for it. I can't find a place to put it though. It's about 26" long, any thoughts? Back of my seat is not big enough and already has another amp on it. |

If your box is well built and mounted properly their shouldn't be a problem. You can even use a rubber spacer between the amp and the box to dampen the viberations a little more. All in all your box shouldn't flex or vibrate much anyways. If it does you really need some more bracing. |

you could do a false floor in the car and flush mount the amplifiers there in front of the sub box. it'd keep the trunk usable, and make the amps look nice, concealing all the wiring at the same time. like this: http://www.wickedcases.com/caraudio/nakamichi-RF_01b.jpg

you make it. use plywood and carpet it using stand-offs to raise the platform to the desired height. cut openings where you need them for the amp(s). pretty simple concept.
