What would you suggest for placement
-
First off no it won't be on top of dash.the stock location has a bracket for a 3.5 speaker under the dash pad where the winshield is. And you say midrange and tweet need to be on same axis but why do most people have 6.5 woofers and tweeters mounted on door or kick panel?

I'm not saying i know it all or trying to be a jacka$$ I've just always liked the idea of everything matching. I figured I would have to mix match but thats y i asked the question if I could do all soundstream. Sq is already gonna be hard enough in a steel single cab box i just didn't know if it was readable. I have been looking at arc audio black series and illusion audio carbon series. Amps are old school 2000rms tarantula and a da vinci. Plan on using audio technix wire and rca. Soundstream ingenix for headunit hidden behind ashtray cover in dash. Processing will be SS synthesis. 4 8 inch reference series subs will handle low end(ported around 25hz) if you can help me on speaker selection that'd be cool. Plan on a 4 inch midrange under dash by front windshield and components in custom door pod. Any other input will be appreciated. Thanks

Hey hate on soundstream whatever but it's something i wanna try and do. I guess I may just have to find a 4 inch midrange from somewhere else

I'm trying to do an all soundstream build everything from headunit and processors to window stickers.

Theoretically speaking if you wanted to build a 3 way active set of matching speakers but couldn't find a 4 inch speaker that wasn't coaxial could you just cut the leads running to the tweeter and still use the cone for lower frequencies ?

Hello everyone sorry it's been awhile. I broke my arm riding and had to get a rod put in so I was in a rut. But the console is stained everything is in truck and sounds good. Have not used the tarantula nor da vinci because I have decided to use them in my show truck. I have slightly abandoned the sq for this build and just going with a nice daily with nice components saving the old school goodies for the 86 chevy.

Battery Charging Problem

Cool so 130 alt with a 140 amp fuse would be sufficient to charge vehicle and both batts correct -

My question is will the 140 amp fuse separating alt and vehicle from battery blow when charging the two xs batts -

Bump. Anyone? -
I plan on getting the new ms8 processor from jbl. I'm using ctx component system up front passive for now until the da Vinci comes and and I'll go active.

I use safari. Also would keeping my tweeters at ear level in their pillar pods and building custom door panels to accommodate the ID 6.5 woofer and a 4 inch midrange destroy imaging?
