my 6.5's ..are they enough?

Recommended Posts

Guys I know just enough to get into trouble and looking for some advise. I've got 2 Fi btl n2 15's that are going to be sealed off from the trunk with a blow thru in the rear deck. Each sub is going to be ran at 1ohm with a Rockford t1500-bdcp amp. I've got 4 sets of Rockford T3 6.5" components and plan on running one set on each channel of my Rockford t800-4bdcp. My question is this..what freq should I cut the subs off at..where should my components pick up at..and are my components enough? Will they be loud enough? Will they go low enough? Thanks for any help you can offer.

Yes I already have them

Next time I'd suggest asking before you buy.

No I've not even had a chance to hear them yet. LoL. Not sure if I clarified enough but each sub has its own amp.

so you bought everything and now you're looking for some confirmation that you spent enough money?

 

6.5's won't keep up with those subs at full tilt, physically impossible.. but hey, maybe you'll still be happy with them anyways.

You've told me they won't keep up...any suggestions? I do not want any pro audio. I've got a Rockford T600-2 if I could utilize it that would be great.

also the more I think about the comment posted it's really upsetting me I'm not looking for any condescending remarks I'm looking for help and advice from a car audio community if you're not able to offer a friendly advice don't bother posting

We gave you friendly good advice, you just don't like it. If you want to be lied to and told that you made a good purchase then there are other places that can do that for you.

Not all four sets are going in the front doors?

no, I was asked if I needed confirmation on whether or not I spent enough money.

I wish I could but the way my doors and front seats are I can only put 1 full set in each front door I was suggested to take the third set and put in the back doors and then the fourth set do something in the custom fiberglass rear deck

No you want all your front stage music in the front doors.

 

You don't need anything in the rear.

I totally understand that concept but my hands are tied I just don't know what to do I seriously only have enough room for one set is 6&a half inch components in each front door and that's with making custom fiberglass panels the way my dash in windshield is I could not imagine trying to put one or even to set the components in the pillars it would totally invade my line of sight out the windshield as far as driving

Under normal listening levels two will keep up.

 

If you are the type that listens to loud heavy bass music they will not.

I tend to listen to rap and R&B but At times I have certain company in my car that do not appreciate that music and/or the volume so therefore I need some sound in the backseat

You can easily achieve that with a good front stage.

They will hear the front speakers.

If you put a set in the doors, a set in kick panels and a single set in the rear running off headunit power I think you'd be happy with that. Imo

Curious to know what ricksi30 feels would be a good front stage w/ my sub set up.

I would take what you spent on four sets of components (I can assume over 1k?) and buy an active capable head unit (pioneer 80prs), sound deadening (sound deadener showdown), and raw drivers from parts express or madisound.
