and when i do install components in kick panels, what is the best way to aim the midrange and tweets for optimal sound staging?

so in short, you're saying that if you use kick panels (which I plan on building and installing anyways), titanium tweeters won't be as harsh sounding and sound better than in the doors or anywhere else?

silk vs titanium from reading the forums, i've read that metal tweets are harsher on the ears than silk. I thought silk was better for sq. but yet utopias and hex components are mentioned as some of the best sq comps. I looked them up and both use titanium tweets. So if these are some of...

i looked on the stereointegrity website and seen that they recoment 0.5-1.5 cubic feet for a sealed enclosure. What are the behavior differences between a smaller and larger sealed enclosure?

from what you guys have said, I think i'm gonna go with the d2's. I know you have to buy the magnums from their site, but where is the best place to buy them. As far as components go, most of you say to go for the utopias. They have titanium tweeters. From what i've read in the forums, i...

the army isn't for everyone. I joined when i was 17. If I waited til I was 18 I might have changed my mind, but who knows. Basic training wasn't that hard if that's what you are talking about. Being in Iraq for a whole year away from everying that you know; now that is the hardest thing I've...

yeah i'd have to say that last one is sweet

well if crutchfield is right about the voltage then the newer one is probably cheaper because of that. Higher pre-amp voltage is always better.

Well, I can't tell you what car I will be putting this all in yet, because I am planning on getting a new car when I get home as well. Right now I have a '92 Escort, and a system wouldn't sound good at all in that cheaply made car. I don't know exactly what I'm gonna get, but It'll be a well...

I'm a deployed soldier in Iraq right now. I will have a lot of money saved up for a sweet system when I get home. I have narrowed down the products I want, but need help deciding which to get. I want mainly sq, but I want it to hit as well. I maily need help on the comps and subs. The deck...
