Very easy to work under the hood and get 0 gauge through the firewalls. Only problem was running it under the panels on the side. The plastic piece wraps around the drivers seat belt is a pain jbut as long as youer keep the wire way under the carpet it's all good.

Jesus, why all the rear fill? Talk about overkill! Invest more in the front mang.

??? Shouldn't be too bad might change the kicker ks60's out for some phoenix gold components. Right now I have 320 watts rms of mids and highs. I though the rule of thumb was 6x your mids and highs for bass?

PLEASE!!! dont put all that stuff in the back and for dear God dont use pyramid super tweeters. Just work on the front stage and save the money and use toward kick panels and door mid bass or something along those lines. The amount of pressure that xxx is gona make is gonna probably blow the rear deck speakers any way you migh as well take em out and let the bass vent threw the rear deck cut outs.

Kind of experimented with the tweeters but now I know they are absolute garbage. And that's a really good idea with the back deck those speakers are ran off of headunit power anyway. with the tweeters gone and my kickers ditched, what pair of 6.5 components can I feed 200 watts to with the gain backed off?

You can power really any 6.5 comps with that kind of juice. Do you mean 200 watts on each channel? I have a pair of memphis pr's in my doors (where they will stay until next weekend) that are getting 150 each and their rated 75.

As nice of a sub as that is you really should get something good for you front stage. Buy the pair of rainbow germs if you have the $$$ that are possibly still for sale in the classifieds. What kind of budget do you have for comps? The majority of the musical frequencies are above 80hz, so just having a kick *** sub and meh comps is kinda silly. Have you got any sound deadening yet?

 

[Beatkeeper1 10+ year member]

well my according to my amp each speaker would be getting 175 but it's probably something more like 150 since each channel alone does 60 rms. As far as budget for the comp goes i just want to keep it around 200. I was looking at Polk momo's or Infinity perfects, good choice? For sound deadening after I get everything running I'm going to go back and use some damplifier mat.

I would build something to hold those kinetics, that strap looks kinda ghetto.
