These are mine and they say NO.

Very true... you are just lowering the volume on an already clipped track.

Yep... prob clipped signal. Tweets feel the pain first.

In my van, I have had them in the doors, on the dash, (not in the pillars- but the dash was pretty close), and now they are in the kicks (if an Astro has such). I put them as low, as far forward and to the left and right as I could. I also put them very close to the door pods I made. It Images better than it ever did and sounds better. To each their own, you may like it better with a different sound. That is just what worked for me. Why not try them in all of the different locations without making anything final- just a quick mock up with lots of extra wire to move them around? See what sounds best for you in your car.

As crazy as it sounds.... the kicks or as far in that direction as you can. Close to the mids as possible and as far away from your ear as you can get them. That sounded the best and imaged the best for me.

That's the hook up! Great find, sir. I am wreckin' Arbys!!!!

I used both Audacity and MP3 gain to lower the level on this track, but the bass still sounds off because of the "boxed" waves. If your buddy still has a lower level master track, maybe he can fix it- other than the clipping, pretty good. Def. more than I can do- which is nothing.

For the cheap, these are supposed to be pretty good tweets that scream: http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.c...iewRand=2770581 Or for a bit more, you can go classy and these still get loud without being harsh... at all: http://cgi.ebay.com/McIntosh-tweeters-perf...p3286.m20.l1116

That's the hotness for sure! You do it yourself?

That's sweet man. It won't be long until the weather gets really nice for the drags. I went to one just about 2 weeks back. That's good stuff.

Not even Optimus Prime can break it!!!!!

That vid is sweet man! You better be careful how high you set that bar!!!

Very nice! You got your roof looking like the waves from the ocean. Nice indeed!

FTMFW!!!!! LOLZ!

Seriously?!?!!???

And I spy a very nice box.

Really sorry for your losses- but x1,000,000 on you being a good, stand up man. Much respect to you.

Thanks. It's own style of on the cheap and did it myself Yeah, those little Tang-Band woofers aren't too shabby. Nothing amazing, but they do quite well for their size. They will jump a good 1/2 inch if you push them to it.

Nothing special at all- but they sound good and image well- 2 4" old school kevlar cone JBL GTi mids and one 5.25" Tang-Band woofer in each box. 3/4 front baffle, loads of resin and glass, bondo, polyfil in the box. They look pretty plain, but I def. don't have the skill or patience of some of you guys. They are nice and solid. On with the pics.... I used dowel rods and hot glue to get the depth and angle right Wrapped for resin Resin done and bondo begins... btw- NEVER resin speaker box carpet. That may be a duh, but it sucked. That stuff soaked up so much resin it was crazy. When it was finished it was strong though... so, it just took a while, then I had to re-resin and glass after that... so- just added a step. You can see the 2 silk dome McIntosh tweets in the "kicks" in the Astro.... if you want to call them that. I know it is dirty and old and faded....

x2 that seas with the link above looks pretty nice. I am a fan of silk or fabric dome tweets, but they don't get as loud- but they aren't nearly as harsh and sound much more natural. my .02

Holy crap you look like Ed Norton! Looking nice and clean though. You gonna put anything over the amp like plexi or whatnot so you can put stuff in the trunk or is it gonna be audio only?

Mad respect!

AAAAaaahahaha!!!
