Balanced?

[airbornflght 0]

I have a set com Rainbow SLC-265 components and a 15" arsenal.

Will these sound balanced in my new '96 jeep Cherokee? I'm worried the sub will be over bearing. Should I just keep the sub lower or get a smaller sub? As long as the components can keep up with the sub that is all I'm worried about. I hate it when I get in someones car and all they upgraded was the sub, and coincidentally that is all I can hear. The sub. boom boom boom thud. How musical......

if installed right, the rainbows should be able to keep up

Do they need a baffle or anything behind them?

I had them in my grand am, but they never seemed to have any mid bass. Now I've had my jeep for almost a year and I'm thinking of installing my system.

it would be ideal to have at least a .5" mdf baffle behind the mids and some non-drying molding clay. also dont forget to deaden the crap out of your doors:

Baffle and deadening are nearly mandatory

Lol, tell me about it. Soon as I ever get to it I will report on the difference they make as I have the same issue.
