    Are you having the box just in the boot or are you removing the rear seats and runnin them in a wall ?

    Parallel is a term for the way you wire them either parallel or in series (more than one sub)

    You can EASILLY fit 5x15's in the boot of a vectra. I transported 2x 2x15" PA subs in the boot of my old vec. They were 240v so i couldn't wire them in though. Lol

    15's need a hell of a lot of space, the box spec on those lanzars is just over 6cuft each that's 24cuft without displacement
    a rough idea that would be 48x36x28 (inches) would get you 24.6cuft and that's not allowing for box bracing and sub displacement

    And in my opinion running 15's in a sealed box is pointless, you'd be better off with 10's or 12's sealed. A 15" sub is designed to give big drops so you need ported to let them to breathe

    well thanks for all the info it realy does help guys i did have the same subs last year but was only half the power and they ran in a sealed box and they hit very hard way to hard i have been to source sound to check the box and they have said i will hit 15db harder running it sealed thats why i have done that as i can only go on what the pro,s say and if anyone that is told somert by a company that are pro,s then u would take there advice as im only about 75% sure on the build on this but im running them two subs in and 2 on the top parallel i think its called

    i still have a few other things i need but should be done and running for hull and if its wrong then i will rip it out and start again with the help of who every thinks it should be like or should be then i will see

    You've obviously been misled as what you've been told is pretty much total crap !

    Do yourself a favour and loose 2 of the subs maybe even 3, run one sub in a well designed ported box tuned to 28-32hz with about 6cuft and you should hit 140db all day long.

    Can I ask what sort of system your after ? Are you looking for a loud bassy spl system or an excellently tuned sound quality system ?

    Have to agree with the above, 10's are good for tight and fast bass, 15's for low and slow bass and 12's are the middle man do abit off both. i have 2 12's in a ported box and they can drop as low as some good 15's
