sub and parcel shelf 6x9's...

sounds nice! doesnt the sub hit the back of the seats, or have you given it enough clearance? or is it like a really big armrest?! or have i just got totally the wrong idea?! got any pics you can post?
probably be good to make a new post of it though, unless this one is dead now anyway?!

sorry if its not for hyjacking e11ie, have you decided which way you going to go about it yet?

[Len]

No its set behind the metal frame of the car which is behind the rear seats.
The rim of the speaker is routered into the 25mm ply so it doesnt touch the metal.
Shouldnt really be talking about it on here as its in my peugeot let alone post pics!

Yeah apologies to e11ie - tell us waht you have decided.

[tommk3cab]

should sound pretty mint then, and yeah, I was going to say the moderators will have you down for a satanist plugging french cars like that! I cant say much about worshiping the devil though as I still love my old, err :cough: renault! :cough: :cough:

hey i had a renault 21 and loved it!

[tommk3cab]

they are pretty quick, all renaults and pugs are, so light though which is probably half the reason! I hated fixing it though, especially if i had to pay someone to do it! its like a big, very expensive jigsaw puzzle, pretty much write off the car if you blow a headlight bulb!

[e11ie]

Haha no worries. It's gud to find out what different routes people have taken! I'm thinking I mite try n make an enclosure for them behind the rear seats if you reakon that would work.....but that will be yet another summer project so one day i mite get some pictures up!

[tommk3cab]

what, behind the rear seats as in, in the boot? or like in line with where the parcel shelf would be screwed at the back at the top of the back seats? ( too many back's!)

I ask because if they are too covered or down deep in the boot you really wont hear them much in the car at all, open the boot and you will hear them stood outside, by the back of the car though!

[e11ie]

yeah at the same level as the parcel shelf, just separate them from the boot area with an enclosure so that they dont use the same air as the sub (not very techy speak i know  ) wouldnt be very big cos i still need a boot! If i can get my head round it I'll work the amp into it too...need to tidy that up n all!

[tommk3cab]

that sounds like a plan! theloudest.co.uk do 6x9 boxes, if you didnt fancy making them, they sound real good, best sound ive ever heared from 6x9s., I installed some in a vito van recently.

cheers for the link  ...they look pretty smart but i think I'll make me own to properly fit the boot then.....their sizes will come in handy though when figuring out a suitable volume for it all
