[QUOTE="TimberJon, post: 433408, member: 552797"] I knew there was something else huge and major. Thanks Helotaxi. yikes how to sift through that... Umm, so my first task would be to select the correct mid-bass drivers. *im lost* I'm pretty sure i cannot fit 8" drivers in my doors. 6.5" would fit nicely, and my door cannot fit the product factory grills unless i redo my whole lower door. Sooo... i dont have very many options. Mounting tweeters here and there, i think i have leeway for that. All these peaks and rises give me a headache lol, i think i understand what you mean though. I had thought about porting the 6.5" midbase's... got the idea looking at the baffles in the thread "newbies guide to custom kickpanels" though i wondered how id do it. How would i make a port for it? So if i were to buy a set of 5.25" components, i would have to tune both the driver and the tweeter? down in my kickpanels?? I dont have all the equipment to test frequencies and stuff. a tuning CD i can buy.. but any additional costs in my plans at this point would be too much. As it is, my equipment cost rivals the customization/installation costs. I DO want all my stuff bolted down. i dont want loose speakers installed in my doors that were just screwed in by the local audio guy. hell i can do that myself.
