by polyfill do u mean the foam? so just take the mids out and add that?

Its not a hard foam its like cotton the stuff you fill pillows with, it makes them think a sealed enclosure is larger than it is. Any fabric store will know what polyfil is just walk in and go buy a bag. Don't put any in till you segregate the cvx from the mids. I'm telling ya the cvx needs to be in its own sealed enclosure away from the mids.....the way yours is set up will destroy the mids that's why I keep saying take a couple hours and put a divider of some sort in. Some mdf, some thick cardboard multi layers or something else and then put polyfil in both sides. Don't pack it super full but you can add/remove to get the sound you want. It makes a difference, go to YouTube and look under my YouTube/brotheriesh. Nice mids n highs is the video extremely underpowered but there is polyfil in the door enclosure and its loud as hell and there is no reason your doors shouldn't be louder than the ones in my old truck.

gotcha :drinks: , i'll do that soon, i got a few things i have to modify like a line driver, im going to spray foam my rear tailgate, and add polyfill to my rood sound bar. list goes on, sand blast chassis is something that has to be done by next year since its rusting -_-

you dont have to watch it, i mean your not gonna get an accurate idea of 1 how good it sounds and 2 how fucking loud it is on the little power it has. im just hoping you take my advice and do what i have said so you dont end up blowing mids left and right (no pun intended lol) cause if you got that kinda money to spend i really could use it, cause i got a really severe back injury cant work, dont make much money at all and still 2 more dc amps to buy lol

lol honestly bro when i read ur comments i don't know if ur trying to offend me or what lol "how fucking loud it is on the little power it has"

no im not, im just saying that there is no way for you to really gauge just how loud the video i want you to watch of a mids and highs set up (thats sub par to yours technically) because its on youtube and not only does when you upload something to youtube it degrades the quality but unless you have some incredible computer speakers its not gonna do you any good. Plus it distorts the mic in the video. I wasnt being rude im just saying in your video's your mids and highs should be louder, ive even ran the same components you are but in this video they are "cheap" ones so to speak and sound way louder and much better than yours in your video and im almost positive its cause the cvx is sharing the same air space. So once you get it sealed off from the mids they should get louder. I hope what i said makes sense but no in regards to your question i wasnt trying to offend you at all. My intention from the start was try to help you because i have ran those same components and after hearing them in the video im quite confident why they are as quiet as they are and i have explained why multiple times. Its a easy fix and shouldnt take you more than half an hour per door and that includes putting the polyfil in also :)

By the way here is the video i was talking about

thats in my old truck, 2 selenium 6's per door and a vifa tweet hidden behind the pannel and they never got to see full potential cause i never put a bigger amp on them, but i would have people ask me sometimes if i had a 10" in there cause it was so much mid bass

nice and neat

found a nice ground location within the specs for the warhorse, grinded and riveted - these rivets are strong i couldn't get a bolt in the back so this the next best thing

couple things

i dont think your box is 13 cubes net or 15 cubes gross my last box was WAY bigger and i only had about 12-13 cubes, but if it is 13 cubes.. you need more port IMO you only have 8-9" per cube

second, keep an eye on the grounds you riveted on.. rivets tend to get loose over time.. IMO i would have bolted them on.

here check this out for urself

and i know i don't have that much port but if i have more port then i would sacrifice more cubes

don't mean to threadjack or anything but do you have pics/vids/ logs of this build? i have an old bronco and i wanted to do door pods like that

Posted

No build log all I did was some custom door pods and a custom center console. If you want ill sell you those pods they will fit any 6.5" mid 2 of them as you can see and curves to the door.they look really really nice but I'm broke and everyone has a price. Pm me if interested
