[QUOTE="CAT, post: 1419472, member: 559980"] Ok here is my concerns, feel free to correct me I am a little new to this, I have done alot of installs and custom work but thats all. I am not 100% sure there is even a place here that makes custom enclosures for components. Making it out of fibreglass would probably cost a ton of money and my door panels have no room to fit components in them anywhere, the way the door panel is designed. if you have components in the foot wells, then wouldnt the sound stay mostly on the lower half of the vehicle where a persons ears are not, even if the speaker is pointed upward?? Also people sitting in the back would only get boomed out by bass, not? The only speakers that play the music are up front, and with 2 people sitting up there, the sound waes are being blocked by the people and the seats, so they would only hear the bass. I dont know about firing the subs to the back of the vehicle, I havent ever tried it. I understand your wiring because it is onnly for 2 speakers not 4 anymore. I understand about the distrubtion block and wiring the amps, did a buddies car the exact same way. It is 8 gauge in there right now I think, the wire can support 700 watts so I figured even with both amps running PEAK I wouldnt even pass 6, so I didnt plan on doing an additional ground to the chassis or anything. I always scrape the paints off of my grounds until its raw metal. If I did do it the old way with 3.5 up front and 6 x 9 in the back, would it be smarter to run a pair of RCA's from the deck to the 4 channel amp for the REAR, and a pair of RCA's to the 4 channel for the FRONTS? Yes I do live in Saskatchewan. [/QUOTE]
