nocturnalrites101 Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Thoughts on a 6.5 on dash pointing straight up or sightly angled towards the windshield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jk13 Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Easier to get away with that at higher frequencies (tweeters). It'll come down to experimenting in that vehicle and running in or out of phase. Build small temporary boxes and set them up there. Can put a wedge under the box for angling. Biggest pain will be isolating the rear for the final install. Don't plan on much mid bass out of them.... Static drops are my bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrd6 Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 It is unlikely to workout well but the only way to.know for sure would be to try it... My Build Log: http://www.stevemead...-sundown-power/ Team NorthWestSPL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truthsayer Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 windshields seem to make midranges sound dead and tweeters sound bright. Why not angle them towards the listener and aim to the middle. It will give you a much more pleasing sound than angling towards the windshield. Thats just my experience, but every vehicle is different. So experiment and do what sounds best for your set up. truthsayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nocturnalrites101 Posted November 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 would be in a 3 way setup. midbass's in the door. tweets in the a pillars and the midrangs in the dash slighty , could go slightly away from the windshield, however not alot. of that makes any sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No no no and no Where do people come up with this stuff 4000 hz and below are omni directional Tweeter should be facing the listener dome tweeters can be more omni direction but that is only because of the dome shape produces more sound at a wider angle A SCSB Santa Cruz Speaker Box Build logs: Daily Driver Lemon Marquis 2 american bass 750.1s 350.4 on 14 focal 6.5s sq 945 on 4 hertz tweeters Mystery subs http://www.stevemead...__fromsearch__1 The Mustang 'dubbed' Shirley the project from bullet holes to badass http://www.stevemead...cond-skin-time/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean the response is the same on all axis from center of the speaker (same sound 360 degree sphere around speaker)? Haven't heard a midrange or mid bass cone-and-basket driver with those properties. Or Do you mean you can't localize where the sound is coming from? This is widely considered to be 80Hz or below with drivers containing zero mechanical noise. Neither one has anything to do with reflecting speakers and direct radiating speakers blending together in the same system. Either way...umm...well please enlighten us. And yes, direct on-axis listening is of course the best. At higher (faster) frequencies it does become more difficult for most people to differentiate in phase and out of phase when only reflecting say, the tweeters. That's what I meant by "easier to get away with" and as always--test, test, test. Static drops are my bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
