Factory setup is the Shaker 500 so it has the two 8 inch subs in the door
factory speaker is 5 x 7 in the top part of the door , and 5 x 7 in the rear deck
I have narrowed it down to the subs running four 8 inch solobaric subs in the trunk
reason for this, I already have them and it will only take about 1.5 cf total to run them , I still want some trunk space and not have to take out the sub box if I need to change a spare tire
also not looking for HIGH SPL , just looking for a little thump without having to turn up the volume to high
I am going to not use the rear deck speakers at all, going to just disconnect them.
here is my question
, crutchfield has focal iss 130 components on sale. I was going to replace the top door speakers with the components
they also have the focal iss 165 on sale, I thought about replacing the lower door subs with them and playing with different locations to mount the tweeter from each set.
I would have to make a mounting plate or bracket to fit the focal 6 3/4 in the lower door panel to replace the factory 8 inch sub, no big deal for me to make the mounting brackets
I will be using a Dayton 408 DPS to help adjust sound as need be ,,, keep in mind that this unit only has 8 channels of output
will not be using any of the factory amp power , I will be disconnecting the factory amp power , and will be running all new speaker wire to the speakers from the amps that I will install
the setup below
thinking on using a two channel amp to control the ISS 130
for the iss 165 I thought about using a 4 channel amp to be able to run the tweeters and the mids from the components on separate channels, that way I can use the DSP to make adjustments for tweeter locations
I plan on adding sound deadening in the doors.
then using the four 8 inch subs in the trunk
would this setup work or should I ditch the idea of using two separate component sets?
the other idea I was running in my mind was the iss 130 in the upper part of the door and just using a pair of 6 1/2 2wo way speakers in the lower door panel where the factory
