Yeah, I still have trim rings in the air...want to do everything simple first and may flair it up later depending. I may even cut some custom badges to mount to the grills. I was thinking of 0.25" aluminum plate with threaded inserts for the speakers to mount to I am going to glass shape them...

So...Im collecting gear to start my kick panel fab and I am curious if anyone has used plate steel or aluminum as the mounting base for their kickpanel speakers? I have access to a CNC waterjet so I am either going to make a router guide and cut some MDF or hardwood plates or just go with a...

This is my leading canidate so far but man...after reading a bunch about the JBL MS-62C I am impressed. Need to find a local dealer to go take a listen.

I keep reading mixed messages about the CDT stuff...I get a lot of vendors pushing them but I really need to hear them. Anyone local to San Jose? Those JBL's look really interesting...

Thanks for the info Zako, I am going to stay passive with this system. I'll take a look at the JBL MS...Ive looked at the Unity but I havent found it cheaper than 400.

So I think I've narrowed it down to the following fronts. They will be running off the front channels of a Zed Leviathan III: ID CXS64 v.2 CDT HD-m62 Hybrid Imagine I61-2V2 Also possible are the ID CTX 65CS, Mmatts CX65, and Mmatts Pro6.5. I need smooth tweets...I loved the ID's in my old...

Wow...with all the sub junkies on this forum I cant get any love?

No...its Pro/Engineer, I then take my models and send them out to a waterjet for the front trim in stainless and a panel router for the main trim in MDF . I am currently going sealed, individual chambers per sub. I could link them but didnt see any reason. Just curious how these sub react in a...

Really? No feedback? Am I going the right direction with these subs?

I am getting closer to my system layout for my nova and I think I've norrowd down to running the Zed Leviathan IiI (2 channels front, 2 ea bridged to the subs) so i get roughly 600watts rms to each sub. I've been leaning toward the Dayton HO's with each getting 0.76 cuft. I want solid deep sound...

Yeah, I saw that on the Imagines but they are getting some killer reviews. I may have to give in and go full component...maybe the CDT Hd-62 or the HAT Unity U61-2 6.5. Any thing else worth a look? I usually run active comps in my other cars and been really into the Seas stuff but id like to...

I need a co-ax setup but would like the flexibility of the external xover, plus I haven't found many co-ax that can handle the juice. That's why I was leaning towards a cv system. I am trying to keep my install as "original" as possible and the individual tweet makes it tough...may end up going...

Hey all, I'm looking for some good convertable mounting component 6.5s for my nova. I've been looking all over the place and I get so many opinions but here is what I'm looking at: HAT Imagine I61-2V2 CDT EU-61cv JL? IDs? Arcs? I would love to run a total American designed/made system. Front...

Do you have any details on the Ab amp? Figured you are talking about the ph-5100, but their site is pretty rough. Can you get Zed? I love the look and size of that bad boy.

Thanks mylows10...what else do you carry? I think I'm leaning towards the dayton HO's but would love to chat on comps and amps. I figure I can go no more than a grand. I need comps that can be mounted single source or coaxes that are shallow...not much space and I'm going for as stock as...
