AKBass Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 (edited) So I had some equiptment laying around and no work for a couple of weeks door pods All glassed up Glassed and epoxyied to factory panels Diamond Audio 2pair D661 1 pair S400 and some cheap audiobahn coaxs in the bpillars my 600.4 finally using it Its not a huge system but its in my regular cab F350 work truck so i didnt have alot of room. It sounds pretty good but a little... lets say, not "warm" w/out my subs hooked up, I'll do that tomorrow. Im going to cover the pods and the box in gray vinyl with some sort of black insert, Ill let the upholstry guys deal with that though.

rival904 Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 DO you have any pics of how you attached the pods to the doors? Ive always screwed them in, and it looks meh, been wanting to flush them in but havent found a resin thatll stick to plastic well.

AKBass Posted May 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 (edited) yeah the pods are fiberglass w/ polyester resin, to get them to stick to plastic door panels you have to use a 2 part epoxy(West Systems). Then i make a putty out of it with microballons(a lightweight sandable filler) to attach to panel then glass over that with epoxy again and done. Epoxy rules but once you start using it you cant go back over it with polyester you have to keep using epoxy. And its expensive... suxors they are never coming off though or rattling loose.

kirill007 Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 (edited) The components would probably sound 'warmer' if they weren't in the "boxes". But i looks clean, i like it. EDIT: the midbass will sound better in most cases, because the compenents are made for infinite baffle applications and not sealed enclosures.
