ehall8702 Posted June 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 Yeah the components are 3 ohm, and absolutely no room to add 6 1/2s to the rear c pillars, not without custom pods or something like that and I am not willing to modify ANY panels on my truck. As far as distortion on the rears, I will have fader very far to the front just letting the rears have some fill, probably won't even make a difference so may not even hook them up. Luckily my pioneer maxes at 37 and signal distorts at 35. Chances r won't be any distortion on the rears but again doubt they will be loud enough to even bother hooking them up honestly. I have checked and tuned everything with my trusty ol oscope, ZERO distortion ( well at least to 35 lol). I think I will get a matching amp to what I have ( smaller series) and run two sets of the references ( set in doors and a set in kick pods) active. I want a dsp anyways but have an electronic x-over that'll suffice till I get a dsp. 2009 Silverado 1500, 7.5" lift, 37x12.50r17s, Built Gen 4 5.3L ( 4.8l flat pistons, decked 243s, SS2 Cam, Pac 1218 springs, ported intake, 120mm TB, Long tubes, 3" duals HP tuner software tuned by me), 4l80e swapped and 4.56 gears. All done by me. stereo is Pioneer avh 600ex, all stinger rca, jp23 v1.5, skar rp150.4, and hertz hpd4. 2 SHCA 6.5 8ohm, 1 SHCA 3.5", and 1 DS18 tw120pro in each door. The 3.5 mid and 3.5" tweeters are powered by the skar rp150.4, the 6.5s are powered by the hertz bridged @4 ohms. Dual runs of 3/0 welding cable, 300a alternator, 2 Vmax AGMs up front. current sub is a AB XR 12 ( dual 2 ohm) with bottom spider cut out in 2.25 cubes at 32hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signal has nothing but a few volts, and it's line level. Amplified power is lots of volts and is amplified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Lightning Posted June 28, 2019 Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 I’m assuming you’re doing this to a GMT400 truck by your signature. I know from personal experience that there’s a lot of work you can do to the doors to optimize driver performance.

ehall8702 Posted June 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 Was checking out mass loaded vinyl, basically same as sound deadining without adhesive right? I'm not gonna go too far right now since I am trying to get my hands on some new doors, these have some rust on them and it's more than is easily fixed with a new door skin. I may just spray inside if the door with ruberized undercoating till I get my new doors and can do those right. 2009 Silverado 1500, 7.5" lift, 37x12.50r17s, Built Gen 4 5.3L ( 4.8l flat pistons, decked 243s, SS2 Cam, Pac 1218 springs, ported intake, 120mm TB, Long tubes, 3" duals HP tuner software tuned by me), 4l80e swapped and 4.56 gears.
