if you want both looks & sound improvements... you gotta go with one of the paint on/spray on sound deadeners that comes in 5 gallon buckets for example the second skin spectrum. Everything else either won't put on enough mass, or doesn't cure hard enough. With the duplicor brand spray can stuff (I think $8 a can) I only notice a reduction when comparing a rock flying off my tire into the wheel well at highway speeds... I notice it is slightly muffled compared to when the well was naked (pre-coating). |

i did 50 ft of edead 45, that got out most rattle made the doors sound much more solid when closing. I do have rattling when sub goes but i honestly dont care as long as i cant hear it inside. The thing i do care about is the front speakers being about as loud on the outside as inside. How would i go about keeping sound inside, those foam things? If all else fails i would just put speakers in the side air vents seeing they point at me, i would get the most sound per volume setting.

The best option if you don't want any sound to exit the car is to make fiberglass kickpods to install your speakers by your feet. It has the added benefit of allowing you to aim your speakers for better SQ too. In my mazda I had it so that you could have music at about 130dB on the inside, and barely hear it outside of the car... if I cranked it much more then the bass finally would overcome the amount of mat I had... but even then, it wasn't nasty rattle like most people's cars do. |

I probably look into what i can fit in the side air vents, or maybe the middle vent which i deem pretty useless for aiming air.

Ok, I've been reading and reading all about car audio and passive and active crossovers, and I think I'm getting an idea, thanks to sqcomp and talnlnky for all your help and information. This website it's a very good source of information: http://www.bcae1.com/
I'm done with my son's playset so this week I'm going back to my project. I'll post some ideas of my audio set up and progress with the deadening process. Thanks YarisWorld.com! D.

After some reading I realize that using an active crossover is the way to go, I'm heading a little bit towards sound quality here, and by doing so I think I'm going to loose my rear speakers, (this is for a good staging, I assume).
I'm OPEN to any suggestions here, this is my plan, if you feel like suggesting a better way or proper way my ears are wide open, I'm here to learn and to accomplish as much as possible, there are some variables like things that I already have, but the more input we get the better. Thank you, D.

Wow, i thought they'd ask for more space, that's not bad at all. Install looks well thought out.

Are those new solos? That looks suprisingly like my old Solo D series rounds...
I love those old round D series subs. I had two 15"s of two ZR360s ten years back. Fun times. As for criticism of the layout? Meh, I'd say the weak part is going to be the Pioneer EQ. I understand then need though. I'd say do as much tweaking with the amplifiers and the ReQ as possible before installing that.
