Behind the seat speakers?
I need to add a couple speakers to my stereo, I would like to do something behind the seat. There are brackets and speaker wire coiled up on the floor behind the seat now, which tells me the previous owner had something back there and must have taken it out before selling the truck. Anyways, was wondering if anyone's has any pics of what they have done, hoping to get some ideas. Thanks.

Wow nice setup corvettejim1968! That's some really nice gear and obviously well implemented. I bet it sounds as sweet as it looks. Bullett, I have thought about it but have yet to try some wedge type enclosures that are intended for putting in the corners of the back glass on older sedans, you might could try those.

awesome work CorvetteJim. Very nice. that plants a few ideas in my head. thanks for that. Dashaund, I had thought also about the old wedge style. What ever I end up doing, I am hoping to make one speaker panel that not only holds my speakers but also goes the entire width of the truck so it covers the whole gas tank and gas tank area. I like corvettejim's idea of using the space under the seat for an amp.

thank you it sounds amazing. i wanted to tell you all that equipment under the seat was installed with 3M double sided tape. no holes or harm came to the truck during the install lol. its so strong you need a screwdriver to pry it back up. the insulation is made by Fat Mat called Rat Trap really reduces noise and makes your system sound so much better. i only have 60 watts per channel . the cab is so small you don't need big power for big sound.

CorvetteJim, do you still have the gas tank behind your seat? I see you have some type of cardboard piece, didn't know if that hid the gas tank?

Did you place anything over the speakers in the doors? They are notorious for letting water get in them. Very nice system.

i created an enclosure within the door made of several layers of the Fat mat. it is 16in wide by 10 3/4in tall by the depth (thickness) of the door. im not too worried about the water issue it does not rain here much and my truck is only used on the weekends. but i do agree with your concerns.

Re: Behind the seat speakers?
get some 2-3way apillar tweeter / mid pods
Put a single 12sub in the rear and use a ported box. speaker facing your back, port on pass back....... sets the sound stage |
