I've finished purchasing all the components for my stereo in the teener. I think it's going to be AWESOME when I've finished it.
Aiwa detachable face CD Aftermarket 6.5 inch speaker panels 6 inch bass tube (I shortened it from 22 inches to 14 inches, to fit snug up under the passenger side dashboard Clarion 6.5 inch component speakers (comes with 2 crossovers, and 2 tweeters to separate high and low frequencies) If you've ever heard a set of component speakers in a car, they are AWESOME...... but here's my question: Where do I mount the 1-inch tweeters?? They should be about the same distance from your head as the 6.5's.... so has anyone done this yet?? I thought about the doors, but the window cranks get in the way. I thought about the dash, but its too small, curvy, and cluttered with vents, knobs, etc. Maybe the sides of the center console?? Suggestions?? Help?? Heres a pic of my interior (before any stereo upgrades)... not that it matters... everyone else's interior looks the same--LOL (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Attached image(s) |

I hear ya guys....I do like the MB Quarts... but seems pointless to spend more on a set of speakers that I did on the entire front spoiler of my car.... Especially when the best I can hope for from my teener is an "average quality" sound. Hopefully I'll get it to where I can actually hear it... well.... at 80 mph on the highway with the top off (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I bought a set of Clarion Components... brand new. Clarion makes good stuff.. I think they will work just fine. Ok.... half way up the window posts are where the tweeters are going. May be a couple weeks before I get the speakers in the mail... but the whole system is going in as soon as they do. I'll post pics (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
