Since I won't be able to install the amp like DJ Cube, I'm thinking about installing a JL 300/4 under my seat or the passenger, which is better the passenger or the driver?

Thanks for the info! I hadn't found those specs before. Looks like it will fit in your enclosure (assuming the HX2 fits). Worst case is another 3/4 inch of MDF could be scabbed onto the front and the whole thing re-skinned to make some extra depth. Now I just have to model an 8a in that enclosure to see that kind of power it will handle.

If you go that way (E8A and my enclosures) - you could have the subs sent to me and I could fit them for you. If they need to have a small spacer added (perhaps 1/4 - 1/2 inch), I would add it at no charge. Of course it would be finished to match to box. No added shipping charges either.

SpEeDxXxRaCeR, I just got finished tracing an engine whine/interference problem and had my seats out. I doubt the JL 300/4 will fit under the passenger seat. It *may* fit under the driver's seat, as there is a little more side-to-side room there. I am more worried about the height of that amp though. It would be a very tight fit, and if you are worried about scratching up your amp, then I would recommend against it. My Blaupunkt is 1/2 inch thinner and the seat clears it fine, but I think it's too close to call on the JL.

bumpity...
i am looking into the e8A myself and, i remembered this thread, so i went back and searched it out...
then i noticed on the Elemental Design's spec page that it looks like the e8A's mounting depth has changed (?)... 128mm => 5.04 inches
will this still fit?
i've been doing some stalling on my purchase until there was some feedback out about it... but if it's not a fit, then i'll discard the option...

Unfortunately, it looks like it will be another couple of weeks before Elemental has them ready to ship...
