Actually it got smashed in my door and they sounded alright for 15 dollar tweeters and don't worry I have a reason to be ghetto im only 18

Actually with the advice being given you have a chance to NOT be like every other clueless 18yo with a bunch of shit thrown together.

Is it that hard to make a couple of MDF baffles for 6.5" comps //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

??? lol im 18 as well.. I will show you my car.. nothing is ghetto rigged.. pg rsds if you want to be cheap but still decent.. 60-70 shipped... mdf brackets are easy..

now then i will admit I added back speakers which is a big no no on here.. not ghetto rigged though..

so what are you running your speakers off of? you do understand wiring this and that makes a different ohm load.. im sure your h/u is loving you..

Running another amp would also probably force me to do the big 3 but the problem is i would have to basically remove my motor to get to my alt.

now im curious as to what kind of car this is?

also sq is subjective but this is a tad stupid. im not saying you have to have expensive comps like me but why would you run a coax and tweeter off of the same channel on a head unit? also if you bought some cheap pb comps you wouldnt have to have an amp, while yes it would sound better amped it wouldnt be required in your case. also from the sounds of it i dont think you would know the difference between an amped comp set and non amped

02 Ford Taurus with the duratec where the alt is on the bottom left of the motor.

So would the Power bass comps get as loud as my current coax's that have a sensitivity of 90db? And I have no clue how to make an MDF adapter for a 6x8 hole.

measure the opening needed, draw it out, get a saw and go to town.

From what I've gathered, that could be a bit difficult for him.

I hope I'm not that lazy when I turn 18.

How in the fsck am I lazy? Sorry I never considered the idea of running comps off of a HU. Now stfu if you don't have anything productive to say.

Or better yet buy a adapter on Ebay for $10+ shipping like I did for my sunfire. I believe I spent $14 shipped to get a hard plastic adapter to make a 4x6 opening fit a 6.5" and it worked like a charm.

Might do that cause I'm not a good woodworker but problem is that 6x8's are a pretty odd size.
