sound system

[Anonymous]

Hi all.Any one with a bay pick up?I really need to know where to mount my 6x9 speakers.Do i get mdf door cards or how do i go about putting them in the kick panels,which i would think would be too flimsy.Please please help!!

6x9's are crap really, use a pair of 5.25 or 6" mid range & tweeter, you will get a much better sound. Slip a slim line sub in a box in there too for a sweet setup.

Are 6x9s really crap? I always assumed they would be better - not sure why...

I have a pair of 4" in the kick panel and 6" with crossover and separate tweeters in the doors, still wiring
it up but hopefully it will sound good.

Hi,

I have a double cab and have been mulling over the same dilemma. I have bought some old parcel shelves (mesh type) and i intend to put some speakers in old 70's style boxes on the parcel shelves then speakers in the doors and tweeters on the dash. If you wanted a sub, why not try one of those that fit in the spare wheel??

agreed! separates all the way with a 6" midrange is what i'm rollin with :evil:

oh and if you are after an amp that is tiny in size but packs an awesome punch then you have to check out the 'vibe lite range'

I have two in my van and they are just over the size of a DVD case but are 1000W :shock:

6X9's are ok in the back for filling in sound. I have fitted a pair in my van. I have tried to get the staging to the front. If you went to a concert they are playing in front of you, not behind.
Go with good mid & tweeter up front & any sort of sub. It will sound great.

My JBL set was only £40.
