What's the chances of you building a box like this?

I'm just putting an idea out there for more of a compromise between forward firing and offroad capability, could you put the subs at a 45 degree angle to fire forward and up? I don't have any knowledge on box design, just wondering if there's a reason to not design a box like that

You could, but it would take away all the air space because it's basically like cutting off a corner. If you had an SUV with tons of room in the back, you could do that. But we're working with such a small amount of space, you can't really afford to waste it.

here, on frf
correct maxx, and also, its the magnet weight that is the issue. if the magnet get jolted in a funny direction, it can destroy the speaker. shallow mount woofers are not so much affected by this. it just happened recently with someone who came into our shop. he dropped his box and the woofer casting broke all the way around. the reason i fire them upward is because most impacts will pull the woofer down into the box. and with the tolerances i have in there, if you break a woofer or a box of mine, you have a lot more serious problems then the box and woofer.
