Thread: subs in the trunk cuz vibration?

A proporly tuned sub should not produce intense vibrations. However most subs people buy are just designed to move as much air as possible which does create that low note but also creates massive vibrations, hense then BFFFF BFFF BFFF sound when you hear somebody with a sub set too high. There is really no way to get a correct sounding sub when its inside something else, if you turn it up you will just get the vibrations and not the low note.
