Re: further up-date on my '78
Nice n neat bro. Looking goode. Why dont you add a set of co-axials into them. Your sound staging will improve amazingly, speakers on the parcel shelf/backboard isnt the best sound. Specially if you have a woofer in the back. Autostyle has kiff looking co ax. Like the blaster calibra and even sony would work with the black and yellow. Im going to be putting 6" splits upfront with 5" co ax in the rears, in the quarter panels that u have.

More than meets the eye!

Re: further up-date on my '78
im happy with my sound quality-my 6x9' are pioneeer 330watts
the sub is also pioneer 800watts
powered by a 4 channel audiobank amp.....the sound is good,i actually had the 6x9's in a back board...but i dont
realy like everything to be very visible. I REALY have thought about putting speakers in the door...but as u can see,im a pioneer fan, and i
havent yet found a set of pioneer splits. So if i went that route...i'd like to change my whole set-up to star sound
Id like to move away from big bass to more clarrity....i'd like a 10' sub, with 2 sets of 5' splits-that would be plenty enough for me...but...ive chosen
to spend my bonus on some cosmetics for the car
I did my mates polo's sound for him: 2 sets 6' digital splits-powered by 1800w amp
1 12' dvc 1800w sub-powered by 2000w monoblock, in a ported box
all this was star sound, and what a set-up!!!!star sound realy make good quality, affordable stuff.
thanx for the idea tho
