    Best 6-1/2 inch mids w mounting depth <2 1/4 "

    Cut enough plastic out in my s10 dash speaker holes to fit a 6.5 in instead of the factory 4x6. Tested fit w a mb quart 6.5 mid I had and was just a quarter inch too high at 2.5 depth, so I know it will work and still fit under factory hole cover on dash. I'm more into a bright, detailed sound...

    Mid/highs layout in 2000 S-10 extended cab questions

    2000 Chevy s10 2.2 extended cab, I bet pillars and dash holes would image really well!!!!

    Mid/highs layout in 2000 S-10 extended cab questions

    Thanks, this is exactly what I was wanting to know, and Iv also been surprised turning a bullet tweeter setup into a corner or surface seems to help it and spread the imaging! IV got shallow 4x6 speaker in the dash factory, and had considered a custom soundbar up high somewhere too.

    Mid/highs layout in 2000 S-10 extended cab questions

    Wanting to do my work truck up right. Already gonna transfer my three 12-in SQLs over into it with subs forward ports up for a lil boom. I'm open to any suggestions on where to put the mids and highs, I can do doors but looking for the best setup if anyone has experience or recommendations. I...

    Recommendation for new amp for 3 SQL 12 d4s

    I hear you man lol. My old Orion xtr 4 k on them most definitely made them scream and it sounds like the extra cost of the power upgrade would be a waste. They're going in an extended cab 2000 S10 so it will be easy to get loud in there. I'm thinking about doing a third order where it's a small...

    Recommendation for new amp for 3 SQL 12 d4s

    Damn, that's really not much maybe not even detectable........ Smart 5 k has a proven track record and better voltage stability too. I'd say it should be plenty for such sensitive 90 DB 12 subs. I love the clean sound and sensitivity of these subs and they sledgehammer the bass drum on metal and...

    Recommendation for new amp for 3 SQL 12 d4s

    I'm all about base electric first! I'm getting a mechman 240 amp alternator and have a ces 40 ah lto bank as well, and should be good to realistically get 4-5 k to all three subs after rise w the 8 k. With the gain turned down and running at 2.66, the 5 k wouldn't get much more than 1 k to each...

    Higher Effiency vs Lower Ohm Load

    This x2, exactly. It's been my experience that 4 ohm operation sounds better to the ear. Never more than 2 ohms for me, and 4 is better. Worth the cost

    Recommendation for new amp for 3 SQL 12 d4s

    I got the dual 4 ohms so final impedance would be 2.66 ohms as I want the better efficiency, dampening factor, and cooler operation that comes with less of a load in the amp. These subs can take way more than the 1 k rating, and I'd like to have them end up with a realistic 1500 watts at least...

    Just got a 2000 S10 extended cab, anybody have experience with sub, port orientation?

    I was thinking that looking at the loading physics, how did it sound that way, bet there's a boost that way plus you can use a longer port for lower tuning

    Just got a 2000 S10 extended cab, anybody have experience with sub, port orientation?

    Looks like I can easily fit 45 w 23 h 18 D1 15 D2

    Best sealed subs for impact tight bass and rock?

    If I had the mounting depth I certainly would do that
