[QUOTE="Jimi77, post: 8819906, member: 673702"] The Black Deaths are loud midrange speakers. They'll be loud in midrange with weak midbass output unless you port them. They are PA speakers designed to fill large areas with sound. PA speakers tend to sound like arse in small enclosed spaces. Their ragged response will be exaggerated in the car audio environment. If you port them and have a stereo 1/3rd octave eq and know how to tune, then you can pull them off. Building a ported enclosure into a door is advanced level stuff and hard to get right. You could try running the Black Deaths infinite baffle crossed at ~150hz. I think you're probably better off with a hifi type speaker. Depends on what you want: loudness or SQ & low-end extension.
