[QUOTE="DRBOOM, post: 8662058, member: 676005"] Hey mate, Thanks for brining up your dilemma You are in the right way of reaching your goal. You have a decent head unit, and amp so now with speakers, all you have to do is" [LIST][*]buy sound deadening material [*]Open door panels, clean, apply alcohol then apply sound deadening to inner and outer door panels. [*]Get those new speakers installed and use the original stock foam from the stock speakers to go around the face of the speaker, they may cover the screw holes but I have noticed applying foam around the front face of the mid-woofer and followed by the plastic door panel provides good mid-bass performance and with your 50 x 4 rms amp you should get decent "thump" to your system You may have to engage the high pass crossover and cross them say, 60Hz and play them. If you want more volume, you may have to increase the cross over frequency to 70hz and see if your speakers can handle the power. [*]Since you have new speakers that will need say 1-2 weeks to break in, start with 80Hz for a week and then reduce the cross over frequency. [/LIST] Let us know how you go mate!.
