Also, Tang Band makes 6.5 and 6x9 mid/subwoofers. Might screw right in without any modifications in the rear.

Well, I apologize for jumping the offensive, it's just that I've made many threads in other forums, and when I mention the speakers I'm using, I get tons of suggestions as to what would be better, and then the thread changes direction. And thanks for the suggestion.

CaptainPioneer wrote:hey Bill not to jack this thread but, Do you know of any ways to subtly put mid bass drivers in a car without really cutting into the dash or Rear deck? I know i could do pods but i dont think that it would be wise to do pods in the front for midbass unless u think otherwise
I know this was not directed at me but i have an opinion on this if you want to hear it. but if you dont want to hear it i suggest you stop reading now. lol

a few years ago i started to build my truck into an sq truck since i could not have lots of subs. up front i build a small fiber glass pod right to the sides of my kicks. I directed them at an angle that was slight off center so that it did not mess to much with my highs. I was VERY happy after doing this. i had a very hard time locating them them with my eyes closed in the truck. meaning that the sounds seemed to come from everywhere not a direct point which is what you want out of a mid bass and or sub. i felt that i really rounded every thing out by doing this.

so put the mid-bass drivers in the front of the car should be ok as a kickpod set up right?

IMO yes however i build mine in thier own pod. i would not put it in the same pod as my components.

picture the first two smiles as your component set and the thrid smile as your midbass

:) :) >>>> :)

io dont know why but i never liked the sound i got when they are right on top of each other

they are jbl's so they cant be too bad... I have to admit... Toyota finally started using better speakers in their vehicles

then in that case its a killer idea. when that kick drum punches its really going to have a great effect.
BTW many MFG's make a 7 inch driver. I really like these. you would not be sorry.

Any suggestions as to what drivers to get? I looked at the 6W0 but at $90 a driver... it doesnt relaly appeal to my pocket
