I'm wrestling over where to put a sub in my car. I would like to put it in a morph sub kit and have it hidden with my cocoa mats. Either way the mats would completely cover the speaker grill.

Is this a waste of time, in other words will those heavy mats just muffle out the base?

My top three choices are:
Morph sub kit
The small powered sub self contained closure that could slip behind the seats or upside down under the steering column (under dash above pedals)
Recessed in backpad (I would hate to cut a hole in my back wall though)
Thanks, Mark

You "can" dampen bass frequencies... It's just difficult to do. Hence things like dynamat etc. It has to be a very dense matter to dampen a bass frequency. It all depends on where your crossover is set as well, meaning; which frequencies are you sending to the sub. Once you get into the 250 area you'll probably start losing some of those frequencies. Most modern subs are fairly dedicated and you'll be crossing over around 150ish. A coco mat isn't going to do anything to those frequencies.
