i've got rsd 4x6's in the dash, rsd 6.5" comps in the front and rear doors and in the rear hatch area, and 3 rsd 10's. the 10's and 2 components are being run off an rsd500.4. 8)

gotta deal on the 500.4 and knew it could rock the subs! They were all 4ohm dvc subs so the amp is hooked up 2ohm stereo on all 4 channels

Heres a pic of my ride with the three tens at the begining of the post! Doing 80 on the interstate!! :)

AND....... If you didn't know, Magnums do not have any speakers in the back door because they are in the rear hatch area. Sooooo, I added a component set to the back doors myself.

the sub grills don't look straight

the tweeter in the rear door looks whacked way over there.

did you close up the door pocket when you put the mid in

The grills are modified??? We eyeballed the hell out of them, but I flipped the two outside ones sideways, removed and centered the PG and added aqua l.e.d.'s to match my pinstripe!

The tweeter is actually pretty sweet because the door panels wrap around in the car and they fire to the back of your head. With 6 other tweets already in the car I just added them because I could.

And, I capped the mids off but it didn't affect the sound? Used PVC pipe and black pleather to seal 'em up; looks good. I'll try to find a pic of them in the car and add it to here!

so sound quality was secondary to sound quantity with 6 tweeters?

no biggie, after seeing 50 tweeters in a door nothing amazes me

Does everyone realize that each of us hears a little differently? What I like might not be cared for by someone else? Sometimes I am surprised anyone would want to post their installs pics here, because a few people just tear them apart with their almighty attitudes. So I say screw you all, if mistawikid is happy with it, then everyone else can take their belittling opinions and place them where their head is in that dark brown, back door hole.

I posted my first and totally amateur install when I joined and virtually no one shot me down. I was actually kind of surprised.

Thanks guys! I Love my system and I dont work at a specialty shop.... I did it all myself! I got PG 4x6's in the dash (fully custom install the dash has a three inch hole) PG 6.5 components in the front doors, the back doors and the rear hatch area. I like it because I'm not forcing any speakers to scream to keep up with my tens and i got mid and treble coming from every corner! Nineteen speakers in a ride that I bought with four and minus the head unit and capacitor its ALL Phoenix Gold! Again thanks, I figured he was just your average Northerner. :)

*Side Note: My ride has pilar and roof airbags and I can only put the tweeters in the door panels!*
