haha.

i'm a hands-on guy. i usually make it up as i go. if i had the tweeters i can make the spheres. if i had the vehicle also, i could figure the mounts.

making holes in wood is easy. finding a way to keep the tweeter secured while routing wires and mounting at the perfect angle - that is the hard part.

In my truck I wanna do something with a swivel mount...

here's a swivel mount that you could use with the spheres. they can be tightened after setting sound stage and wire can pass through them

Hmmm those may work...

throw some foam around them and a little vinyl and u could hide the metal. im gonna be trying them soon. i have the fittings i just need to build the spheres

with that swivel ball (nice find) the wire would be routed separately. so you'd need to dress up that as well.

i do like that idea. being able to aim the tweeters is handy.

and the new spheres sound great. so do the Vifa ring radiator tweets. Much better than the others.

having the actual tweeter is the only way i could guarantee it would fit correctly.

can i make a hole in a wood ball for you? sure - easy, just tell me the outside diameter of the tweeter. I can i make it a certain depth? sure - easy, just tell me total depth + wire. if that is all you want, then yes, i can do that. you'll have to figure out how to make it stick in the hole, drill the hole for the mount/wire, paint/finish to your tastes, etc.

since its just an air line with no quick-connect its hollow thru and thru so u can rub the wire same as the hollow tubes

You never cease to amaze me... I may go back to a component set soon to do this. I was going to do something similar, but didnt exactly know how...
