Re: Some half finished c5 pics, let the comments roll (JoeyG)
Holy cow that's impressive. So are you going to duplicate all of this again so I can drive up and have you install it my my vette (I'm about 2 1/2 to 3 hrs south of you). Those tweeters in the center heat duct are really cool. I would love to see how that sounds when you get it done.
I am in the process of installing a 12" solo in the center hatch compartment and 5 1/4 Boston Pros in the doors driven by Lanzar competition series amps. My head unit is a Sony MD. Not my first choice in equipment anymore, but I already own it and it will at least get me by until I decide to change it all up again. I really want the Alpine 7878 but I will have to save a little while for that one! :eek:

Kinda funny you said that. I used to live in Nevada and go down there about once every two months, Joplin also. Also my buddy Geoff at Audiophile in Springfield wants to take photos of my car for his shop promo ads, because I'm using two Audio Art 100HC'S I purchased from him for power, among other things. Making the parts for you wounldn't be a problem. just email me with the specs of what you want to do and use.

I'm curious on the speaker confines. I have MB quarts installed in the doors but they are open to the door chamber. Is there a big difference in sound by enclosing the woofer as you have?
Re: Some half finished c5 pics, let the comments roll (webdzynes)
I do that mainly from habit. I use hand made/home built 3 way 12db crossovers for the front speakers. Orion 6.5mb, Kicker resolution 4, and dynanudio (for MMATS) tweeters in the dash. Personally I believe there is greater seperation and tighter cone control of the midrange and midbass speakers this way. Plus if ever water became a problem I'll be less worried.
