so was this a bad idea? door pods (pic)

[Etac 10+ year member]

they arent compeltely done yet, just getting them in so i can test em out, just to make sure everything fits and i like em ect.. before carpetting em... and other finishing touches... but of course its raining so i gotta wait a day or two, to see how it sounds

i know the one speaker seems off center, but it had to be in order to fit behind the door panel... and the paint looks alot smoother than the flash picked up, but you wont even be able to see that eventually... i just wanted to get these out of my kicks.. cause my friends keep *****in about leg room... and if anyones got any ideas on anythign i could do to the upper right part.. seems kinda plain.. feel free to chime in

Not bad.

Is that area with the grill for a 5.25?

 

[Etac 10+ year member]

6.5, but i got my peerless 6.5s there as my dedicated mids... (well in my door)

tweeters are either going back in the kciks (most likely) or maybe right under the 3inch mids.. right next to the 6.5 grill, but i doubt that

and i know they're far from perfect, but they do look better than that picture.. the mids also stick out about an inch which is kinda hard to see

yeah i know but im also afraid of someone kicking something, one of my mids already got a really small dent in it.. i dont think it makes a difference, but thankgod another is only $20 from PE... thanks for reminding me, i gotta grab another before they stop making em or something lol

IMO, looks great with the flash. Makes it have a sort of subtle two-tone quality.

And tell your friend to stop being a douche.

i dont think my friends will ever stop being douches lol

my biggest concern is how its gonna sound, im afraid the driver side mid is gonna dominate my setup.. i tried a tweeter there once before, in some ways i really liked how it sounded.. even tho here was really no front stage.. it did sound like it was coming from all around you and was hard to localize... but it defently hit your ears sooner than the rest...

Looks good, tell your buddy to kick rocks. I would put another set in the kicks if it were me.

i never thought of that //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

only thing is my midbass's wont keep up with another set.. i wanan throw another set of peerless 6.5s in my door, but thats gonna require alot of surgery... still might one day, but not till after winter

and i got gotta say for like $18 or wahetver a piece these 3 inch mids were, they are great... and i was skeptical of tang... but they are built solid and do preform, iw ould of grabbed the peerless 3's if i saw them first... but for how much i paid for my whole front stage ($30 tweeters , $100 midbasses, $80 mids) i couldnt be happier

I think it looks good. Im sure it looks better in person too since the flash seems to do that with some fabrics. They do seem a little out of place, but it looks good.
