Well the speakers went in without much hassle at all! Only needed to drill new holes for the sheet metal screws and was all set -- didn't have to fabricate any board or anything like that to go behind the speaker, so i was pumped.
They sounded HORRIBLE at first, because i don't know anything about car amps. I'm powering them with a US accoustics 65x4 watt amp. Well, i didn't have a damn clue what gain or any of that **** is, so i was just twisting dials and pushing buttons. Then my buddy who is a car audio stud came by, and he tuned all the stuff perfectly.
The speakers now sound great. They hit so freaking low its unbelievable, as low as most subs I've heard, but obviously not as loud. Bass notes are likes deep "punches" not like the deep "booms" of a sub, which was exactly what i wanted.
I am experiencing some engine noise... used to be a lot, then i bought this noise killer thing for 20 bucks at radio shack. that thing helped a ton, but i still need to play with it more.
The only annoyance is the drivers side front sail panel (that triangular plastic piece on the inside of the window) rattles like a ***** with the low frequencies.. Could I have put it back on with the wrong screw when I reassembled the door??
Thanks, Jake
