    What marerial do I buy to cover the rear of the speakers ill be getting? I already bought that dynamat stuff, enough for the entire inner door. Is there some other foam I use?

    Best midrange/vocal component speakers around 150 dollars

    Wow. That makes so much sense. All the cars I've sat in have so much muttled sound, and distortion. They just arent tuned even in the slightest. Jeff, can I text, facebook msg, or email back and forth with you? I have a feeling you have exactly the knowledge I want for my car audio...

    Best midrange/vocal component speakers around 150 dollars

    They only move a little bit, maybe 10 degrees total (5 from center) 2 grand including sub box, amp, and sub? Or just 2g for the front setup? Still, I'd rather just optimize a few hundred dollar setup for now, I don't have much left over after my sub setup, since I have to pay someone to build...

    Best midrange/vocal component speakers around 150 dollars

    Soooooo..... I had a chance to give a few different vehicle setups a listen, and demo multiple component setups today. I listened to multiple in car 2 way component setups, with and without prepped doors, and I wasnt impressed.  The components that I felt sounded acceptable were so far out of...

    People with discerning ears... Are sundown sa 8v3 d2 subwoofers musical?

    Both. I listen to all genres, so i want musicality, accuracy and extension. I am trying to get a tapered tline made, with most of my own design. Ive read this is best for what Im looking for. So Im trying to find a good, musical subwoofer that has the ability to play low, and accurate, and...

    Or are they only for getting loud bass in a small package? Vehicle is a 2000 honda insight, small airspace, hatchback. I listen to all genres, very tight, textured, accurate bass is desired, extension to 25hz.  Thank you

    Best midrange/vocal component speakers around 150 dollars

    Vehicle is 2000 Honda Insight. It has 4 factory speaker locations, all of which are 6.5" ish. I only mentioned the smaller diameter components because I don't know what size speaker is best. I assumed the larger 6.5 size would have less clear vocals, and more pronounced mid and high bass. I am...

    How do I know my speakers have warmed up enough to play loudly?

    I usually blast heat for 15 minutes or more, and see if the speaker grates have some warmth behind them, but i still am nervous. I do notice that the speakers act like there is a 200hz high pass filter on them below 30 degrees f.

    Best midrange/vocal component speakers around 150 dollars

    I finally got my 4 6.5" Polk db651 speakers amped, and I am disappointed. I hoped that amping would help with instrument separation, the midrange clarity, vocals (especially lower female) and overall hollowness of the sound. It only seems to have helped separation, and added a nice "rip" to 2-4k...

    EXPERTS ONLY PLEASE Building the perfect transmission line box, many questions

    Yeah I definitely have to look up what all the abbreviations mean. Almost none of them match the units on the Sundown Spec sheet for the sub. Ah makes sense. I'll try to keep this project simple. By cabinet shop, do you literally mean kitchen cabinet place? Would I supply the wood?

    EXPERTS ONLY PLEASE Building the perfect transmission line box, many questions

    Thank you for your response. I downloaded hornresp, there is a learning curve to say the least. The batting wont help with any of the harmonics below a certain Hz? Even thought my sub box will have a low pass filter (i think thats what it's called) won't it still produce multiples of the 39hz...
