QLOGIC kicks, or leave em in the door?

[tukn18s 10+ year member]

Alright, I havent decided on the comps yet, itll either be the rainbow slc kicks or, the germaniums, just depends on how the money falls. What I am wondering however, I was going to just put the speakers in the door with some deadening of course. But, would running them in a set of kick panels provide for better staging? I know I had them in my s-10, but this is a completely different setup, the way the speaker is on the door, is almost like its aiming at you already as opposed to my truck, the speaker was point right at your ankle lol. BTW this is in a 2000 ***** am.

for those not familiar with the car, it looks a lil something like this, this guy even has some custom kicks, what do you think?

I say go with the kicks, put some SLC 5.25 comps and also put some 6.5 SLC comps in the factory location!! Then Power them with a 4 channel!! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

get 3-ways and put the midrange in the kick, midbass in the door

midrange in kick (tweeter too if you get Q-logic. If not in the pillars), midbass in the door

 

[tukn18s 10+ year member]

alrighty then, which set of three ways would do the trick? they must be

 

[xtremekustomz 10+ year member]

lets see.....cdt makes a set for $500

 

[xtremekustomz 10+ year member]

JL Audio makes one that is $350ish

 

[acold7dusta 10+ year member]

the SLC 365's could do that for under 400...also check out focal's KP's (i think)

 

[xtremekustomz 10+ year member]

If you build your own kick panels you could put a 6 1/2" 2 way down there

 

[xtremekustomz 10+ year member]

I know most of the q forms will only allow up to a 6" speaker. They have designed some that will house a 6 1/2" but I don't know what all vehicles they have them for

 

[acold7dusta 10+ year member]

i heard the Q forms were flimsy, and need to be reinforced //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

 

[xtremekustomz 10+ year member]

Yeah, they are. Pretty much made out of 1/8" abs

CS-FX602, I've got a set of these here JVC's sitting in my closet, suprisingly enough, actually sound pretty good. Would those be sufficient? Or should I just buy a three way set? With a three way set are the crossovers basically the same but with a midrange, woofer, and tweeter output?
