    How would you guys feel

    With 8's you'd definetely have to vent into engine compartment and really lower the dead pedal, but doable. Here is how I did mine, not a whole lot of glass: http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...wtopic=4650&hl=

    Really more than anything home ownership. I bought my first house when I was 22, still had that chit to do. A little worse now because I want to get it ready to sell. Indeed, day labourers >me. I am beat, but ready for some To-kill-ya.

    gonna go out for Mexican food. been one hell of a day, here is what I have been doing. 1) rake twigs -- nearly an acre yard creates pu full 2) take twigs to dump 3) paint dumb looking aluminum vents on roof 4) plant 18000 sq ft of grass and setup automatic sprinklers because remembering to water plants/grass > me 5) aerate the lawn (did before 4) 6) paint dumb old house numbers to match new trim color 7) endless errands at home depot, 2 minute stop $300 later 8) take apart dishwasher to fix stupid broken handle, injected molded plastic crap I need a new part Monday 9) polyurethane my mantle legs and top so I can start doing the trim work 10) visit with neighbors--brand new just moved in 11) fix dumbazz broken lawnmower -- tire off bead and a belt that likes to jump Sure I left something out of my rant, but the summary really is the day has sucked and it is time to relax. Margarita's ftw!

    A normal 5.25 won't fit anyway, you need the reverse mount euro crap. You must have missed my link with the build, I put a 7" Seas in the kick no problems. Actually used an 8" grill and had there been a real option for the top that I could get by with a low crossover I would have used it. Pretty off-axis down there.... I too feel a 2" driver would be much more manageable to creatively mount for better on axis accessibility. I am sure that off axis at high frequencies will be a slight problem with a 2" near full range, but the mounting options will definetely outweigh those issues.

    I feel your pain. My hands are frozen and I can do no more. 45 ain't bad, but when the wind is gusting around 35MPH, it get's chilly quick. Worst part of my day, I had to spend 2 hours cleaning and condensing my glue bottles because the stuff was so dried and clunked up in the applicator tips, it wouldn't even flow. Piss. wind chill was 32 here, 36 without wind though, my install is beyond ghetto, and i have no sound from my right tweet fudge it. i hope its an rca that came unplugged or something like that, if not i swear i'm selling everything, and i'm not even close to joking Normally my job or some of our Canadian friends to complain about the weather, but it was 60 here and is going up to 70 by Monday. Beautiful and sunny!

    I would clarify and say Japanese imports, everything is always friggin' in the wrong place. They build 'em to run not work on. BMW straight six cars ftw!

    Basically to take it down to Tom's Physics class level, you WANT Constructive interference to be at where the mic is and all the deconstructive elsewhere. Once you know the resonant frequency of your cab, you will know the wavelength of that resonance and having the mic position be at a location where a peak in the wave lengths will meet. Of course, the theory breaks down in that you cannot completely predict all of the reflections and such, but as long as your fundamental is close to being on you should have a maxima at your acoustic field there. Oh that and there really shouldn't be much destructive since the wavelengths are longer than your cab. I'd play around with a mic and an oscilloscope once you have located your box and see if you can improve things more.
