Sound staging in a Regular Cab


RyanRosier

Recommended Posts

I know it says 20W, I've seen them take closer to 50W in the real world. They don't NEED much power though to do their job. Remember, they're only 8 ohm. So an amp that puts out 40-50W at 4 ohms per channel, will put out roughly 20-25W at 8 ohms.

They are only 1.75" deep and won't stick out in a pillar too bad at all.

Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

if you fade out the rear pillars until they are barley on it will trick you into thinking you have a high stage

My buddy kimo does this in his silvardo it really makes it sound like you have speakers in the dash

but thats just a quick trick he did end up building pods in the corner of the A piller for mote true SQ set up

if you do a 3 way set the 3 or 4" speakers dont need a ton of power xovered correctly those speakers should only be reproducing sound from around 500hz to 5k hz

I have also ran these they are 4 ohm and I liked them a lot

Do you prefer coaxil or components?

There is nothing wrong with coaxials, they can actually be beneficial for Sq setups.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

^^^I almost pulled the trigger on those but decided against since they were 4 ohm and didn't want to overpower them.

So if I order what you showed me, (probably will) what do I do about tweets?
