I guess I should have said the amp is bridged.

What's up with the dynomat. I endend up covering the whole door. Was that really necessary?

I covered the inside of the door skin and the inner door structure. It seemed to make a slight difference.

I figured out the farther away point, but the major problem I can think of is that the tweeter might fire more into the driver's leg. But it may fire equally into my leg if swapped.

Thats a good point. I hadn't thought of the leg issue.

you guys aren't gonna believe this chit. My new JBL amp crapped out on me today. It never blew a fuse but it won't put out sound. There is a little diagnostic light on it and it's indicating a bad voltage regulator in the car. It's b.s. though because the other amp works fine and the voltage gauge shows steady where it's supposed to be. I talked to JBL and they are perplexed. It's being sent back to them tomorrow. I'm so pizzed. Work hard all weekend and then this. Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Dude I feel ya. I've been trying to be a perfectionist. It's both fun and extremely frustrating working around these stupid problems. Well not the amp one, but the mounts tuning wiring stuff was fun.

At this point though, I just want to be hauling azz on some road listening to my music on my system that i installed in my car that i bought.
lol

I can't wait

well, after I installed my new tweeters, there is noise interferance, I am unsure if the optical connection to the processor is working, little nagging things,,,,I want to start working on stuff myself,,,just dont have a garage nor tools...
BUT, I may be adding a McIntosh amp, so that is pumping me up again,,,

You r rewards will outweigh anything..I am sure the Morel's will kick ass...try them with The Planets, by Holst...

Sorry to hear about that amp. That's gotta be annoying.
