First pics of a box I picked up (a freebie), was thinking of an option of two 12" in it at some point. Looks like they mount facing into the ported area, so you see the magnets through the half inch plexi.





My set up currently, not pretty, but I'm all about function over beauty.



Morel Tempos, tweets in pillar, crossover seen at bottom, mids in doors:

Hey that's a decent setup, how do the Morels sound.

 

it looks like your missing the trim ring around the radio faceplate?
Which model of PPI is that? Cant quite read it.

 

Hey, I am about to install my stereo into my civic, how did you take off the door panel and plastic pillar for your tweeters? Installer suggested that i install the tweeter forward of the door latch. How do you like your tweeter placement? Any tips you can offer?

 

That bandpass box looks like one of those shitty boxes from xscargo, i wouldnt use it. Stick with the one you have now.

the ppi looks like a MOS-425, nice shape too!

 

you have a great component set, and an amazing old school PPI art series amp....

yet you wanna use some piece of snot prefab bandpass enclosure with a pair of not so good subwoofers?

no offence, cause i know what its like to use what you have got, but i think its time to revaulate things

 

Yes, unfortunately no trim ring. I plan to see about getting a remote and trim piece sometime soon. (plus, if Santa good to me, an iPod cable, I have a feeling wife getting me an iPod Touch)

It's a ProMos 425. Basically the brother to the ProMos 25 which was two channel, this is four channel. Cheater amp, as it's 25W.

Morels sound amazing! I don't think I'm pumping enough power to them to really see how they sound and how loud they could get. Just a Pheonix Gold Sapphire amp running the front.

Hmm, well, it wasn't too difficult. Hard part was fishing the speaker wire through into the door, the rubber channel for wiring was pretty tight. Modified a coat hanger to fish/push it through.

I sort of got some reference from here for taking the door panels off, and how to go about making the speakers work in way of mounting in door:

Tweeters sound fine in the pillar as such, I have 'em slightly facing to the windshield to bounce the sound back into the car. Pillar just pops out from the top, held with clips.

Much appreciated! I figured for free, it's something I could play around with. Much smaller than the one I built for the 10's!
