ADavidson152 Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 I'm tryin to put a better system in my truck but i dont have much room to work with. Its a 89 chevy k1500 standard cab. My plan is to take out the bench seat and put in two bucket seats with a console between them. The questions i have is my design. I plan to stick some subs in the console then have a raised fiberglass/glass protective layer that will prevent the subs from being damamge from passenger ignorance. If i do it like that then will it distort the sound quality or will it be fine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hdorre Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 You could use speaker grilles, it just wouldn't be comfortable if you're using it as an armrest.

DirtyD78 Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 (edited) im thinking bout port up subs forward maybee get louder. op i just modified a pro box for two tens. the sealed one is two hatchback boxes fixed back to back. i had two 10" w3's on 600 watts and it would flex my doors. just someything to ponder over when you plan Edited May 8, 2010 by DirtyD78 Quote 2003 CHEVY SILVERADO REG CAB H/U SONY W/ IPOD TOUCH new build 2 dc audio lvl4 xl's rd audio 3250 box is behind the seats below the window 3.44 after tuned@34 htz 147.3@44 htz & getting louder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
