tweeter location

[redfish8]

where would be the best place to mount tweeters in a f-150

also what are good comps that can handle 120rms per speaker and whats a good speaker for the rear for some fill that can handle around 50-75rms

my budget for comps is 150 and rear fill is 100

[tcguy85]

spend the money on the front stage, skip the rears.

not sure where the best place is for the tweeters in that vehicle. in my car i prefer the kicks.

[redfish8]

so i should just spend 250 on the fronts
i think i have 6.5 kickers in the rear now as it is

whats a good comp set for 250 or under

[tcguy85]

do you have an amp already?

if not what is your budget for everything? i would recommend comps, an amp, and proper deadening on the doors.

I have my tweeters at the bottom of the A pillar kind of facing the window and pointing towards the opposite side of the truck. That way they bounce off the window. I like them there and feel its a better spot then having them at the top of the A pillar right in your ear. Also if you already have 6.5s in the rear just keep them for the slight rear fill. I have 5 1/4s behind me and find that the truck is full of sound. I have a single cab though.

well i have a supercrew and i am going to have 2 12's l7's ported behind me running off 1500rms and i have a kicker 650.4 for my mids and highs plan on running 120rms to each speaker up front and around 50-75 to rears

how are the kickers 6.5 free air midbass speakers for rear fill do they sound good

[snfsh79077]

I am not sure how they sound..have never delt with them. I will say this though, I have an extra set of tweeters on my dash, the ones I told you about. I have a comp set in the doors and just have a bracket that holds the driver and tweeter behind the door grill. I was told it wouldnt be good to seperate the tweeter from the mid that far so I kept my tweeters on the dash.

[snfsh79077]

those would work as well

[Trey803]

why do you have a "stripper pole" in your bed

[snfsh79077]

why not? Ive had it for 3 years. I have my truck in a car show every year and the car show hosts a bikni contest that night. well one year they had a stripper pole on stage and my truck was front row filled with guys and girls...well I looked at my best freind and was like next year Im putting one in the back of my truck and ever since its been a HUGE hit. I like to do things out of the norm and this was a big one. If your wondering it doesnt stay up 24/7. It comes down and slides into a cyclinder under the truck for storage.
