Bass4Lyfe Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 Okay ... so my current set-up is in my sig and it's very recent. After getting a M&H amp for those coaxials (all 4 in stock locations) I know that I will want more from about 200 Hz and up. So what are my options as far as some new speakers? I don't need SQ as much as just a clear loud front stage ... so like placement from kick panel to door doesn't matter that much, for example. A couple locations I thought of today were ... --> In the 2 cupholders (I NEVER use) in the center console [2 4" drivers?] --> In the space between shift lever and cigarette lighter You can see the two cup holders in between the shift knob and the center console space, and the other space is right in front of the shift knob. Keep in mind I CANNOT glass and am looking for some creative drop-in locations people use ... Thanks all! PS That is not my car but you get the idea ...

PaulO2288 Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 I mentioned no glassing .... thanks for the input though Do you have any more pics of your doors panels? Im talking about what I did to mine, or what Steve had done to his old door panels of his Civic before he redid everything. He had put midbass speakers in the doors with no mods but just cutting a hole and placeing a speaker in with some wire. Ill find the link for you.
