Adding a center channel to a Trans Am

Recommended Posts

Hey guys I was just wondering what is the best way to add a center channel to my car? My type of car does not have center channel from the factory. What can I buy and where can I mount the speaker in my car to give me a true center channel. Btw I already looked up stuff on google, none of the sites gave me a clear answer.

I really feel like a center channel will provide me with a home stereo feel and will help with imaging.

I listen to a mixture of rock, rap, screamo, techno, and everything in between. I guess the two main ones would be rock and hardcore (screamo) music.

You would be better using CDT Pillar mount tweeters facing windshield and let the highs reflect off it. For 5.1 in car audio you would have to buy DVD 'S IN 5.1 And the last one I bought for home system sounded terrible. Not feasible in car audio.

Yes. Even though what you say is true, I still feel a center channel would benefit me.
