dmanson Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Well guys i installed some fatmat on my front doors .... inside of door and outer part behind door panel. anyways my mid bass still doesn't sound as good. i left the openings uncovered. i see most people doing the inside of the door and completely covering the exposed side behind the panel. my high/mids amp is set to HP and i've tried AP, no luck. anyways any advice would be nice. thanks in advance.

zayres29 Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 time to invest in new speakers it seems to me Quote Btw that was the first person. Ever banned by me while dropping a deuce. Feel privileged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finkster Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Gotta seal up them holes brotha. Im having the same problem right now. Do that first before spending money on new speakers.

You mean so the speakers are sealed from the door cavity?

finkster Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 see how you can see straight through the plastic to the front (outside) of the door? Thats supposed to be covered or "sealed" with wood/sound deadener to make the inside of there act like an enclosure.

dmanson Posted February 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Well it all makes since now, I have a pretty good bit of sound deadner left so I'll seal up the openings. I have two 6.5components in each door so it should get pretty loud which it does and they are the RFT162s and a set of crescendo 6.5s. I know its been asked before but what's a good place for the xovers to be? So far I have them in the doors but I really don't wanna have them next to the amp and do two runs for each 6.5 and tweeter through da doors. Gotta get ready for the spring.

Have you got around to sealn em up yet? If so did it make a noticable difference? Jus askn cus I may have to do the same, I do got some spare second skin layn around. My crescendos move and sound pretty good but their lacking "bass"... Mayb its time for an actual midbass instead of components, couple 8's maybe..? Quote Rebuild in progress...

Seal the all openings in teh door panel EXCEPT behind the speaker...(Seen it before) Ditch the Crescendos & get a GOOD pair of components... Look into some Hertz, T3, Focal, etc...
