Took alot of time with this experiminting with the best possible tweeter location. Still unsure of these huge tweets being so high up on the dash. I will be Biamping them so I should be able to turn them down.
All glassed up!

work looks good, but you would have had a much better sound stage if you had the tweets pointing towards each other.
yes, you will most likely have to tone them down on the power!
im using a 6db cut on mine.

GreekPower · 01-29-07, 02:14 AM

looks great!

DevanTheDude · 01-29-07, 01:28 PM

Edit: Now that I have actually heard these I think the tweeters going behind the factory grill at some point..(as my ears are bleeding)

davinci · 01-29-07, 02:41 PM

which component set is that?

DevanTheDude · 01-29-07, 03:23 PM

They are Diamond Audio D9 components

XclusiveAutosports · 01-30-07, 03:38 PM

huge tweet!

nice fg work. what are you using to power them??

x-overs look sweet....

s55lear · 01-30-07, 08:59 PM

how're you gonna defog your side windows with the tweeter blocking the defroster?! but anyway, looks very tight.

Smokinfastlegend · 01-30-07, 09:20 PM

looks awesome, i got d6's in mine and have em down in front of the mid bass facing outward to the listener, sound much better then them being separated up in the door (fuller sound.)

slick · 01-30-07, 10:29 PM

Yeah, those are humongous. And definately use the tweeter cut on the crossover, your gonna need it.

bboarder711 · 01-30-07, 11:06 PM

MORE Pics please

GreekPower · 02-10-07, 04:05 AM

yes can we have more pics? I plan on doing the d9's for the whole interior but I would like to see whoever has these installed, with pics

Drizzle359 · 02-10-07, 12:20 PM

I can't wait until you are finish with the project so we can see more pics.

Ken · 02-10-07, 11:22 PM

Osamu · 02-11-07, 05:37 AM

werd
do you happen to have any kind of write up on how you did the pillars?

I'm thinking of trying something like that in my new car, w/ my BG Neo's. It look like you glassed over the stocks? and cut out the backs? And did you rewrap them or are they just painted?

Sorry for all the questions, haha, they just look great.
