If you can't afford to do the whole car make shore you do the doors, large floor panels, roof panel, and next is the bulkhead, gear box tunnel, Boot/trunk.
I like to book customers cars in for two or three days strip the whole car down and give the engineer as many boxes of dynamatt as needed.
After that install the front speaker as far away from the driver as possible and facing the driver with tweeter close to the mid. I try not to put tweeters in the a-pillar. If the mids are in the doors try the tweeters in the kick panel. The tweeters must be facing to the listening position even if the mids aren't.
Next add sub system in the best box you can build for it with plenty of bracing to make it nice and strong.
Put car back together with modifications to make it all fit, sit back listen and adjust as needed.
As every one has said SQ comes from the install and then the equipment. |
Thanks for the advice. Is there any website/thread that could guide me to the 'right' way of doing sound deadening? I tried to search for it but could not find it. No one here is an expert on sound deadening and the only material available is by stinger. Any suggestions/pointers?
Also, I need your opinion on whether to put the polk sr6500 set in my car for the front or the premium line mb quarts. Which one is better and how? If i put in the polks i will probably use their sub and amps as well, and if i go with mb quarts i will go completely with their setup.
