SQcomps install

I'm skeptical about not doing enclosures on midbass drivers... any back wave that makes it up front will kill your response & volume... Just keep that back way separated and it'll be fine tho.

I think I know what you're talking about.... i'm paranoid about backwaves.

Nobody thinks you are a poser.

You are doing some serious work to that Yaris.
I'm sure your results will be worth all the effort you are putting into it.

You may not win contests with it, but you will certainly have one of the best sounding Yarii on the street!

I love 4-way setups. Those 8's are sexy.
That competition system I heard at our local shop a long time ago was a 4-way system.
He had tweets, 4", 6.5", and four 10" subs on the rear deck in a ported enclosure. Cones and ports were on the deck.
The component speakers were in custom pods down at the front kick panels, angled upwards towards the listener.
Nothing in the doors, or A-pillars. Lots of dynamat. The car was an Olds Cutlass 4-4-2. Like an early 70's model.
I seem to remember he was using Clarion, Earthquake, Planet Audio, and some other brand I can't remember.
The one thing I do remember is: no matter how loud you cranked it, the sound was crystal clean. And those four 10's hit like a jackhammer in the chest.
Best system I ever heard. He used it primarily as a demonstrator for the shop. He was the shop manager/lead salesman.
I also remember he tore it all out, and did a totally different install not long afterwards. I never got to see or hear what he did next.

I've only touched a basic TA and have a flat EQ right now that hasn't been measured on an RTA. Thankfully I have the West coast teammates, Jim, and Justin to help me tune.

imma laugh my ass off if you come in 2nd place in the first two or three sq comps you go to (that have more than 3 people show up).

All I meant was, even IF you don't win 1st place at competitions you enter, you should still be proud and satisfied with everything you have done.

You certainly have a good chance to do well in competition. You are using premium components, and you are taking the time to work out all the details.

Looks nice SQ,

What materials and where can I get to do something like that? not that I'm doing kick panels like you, but I'm trying to design the mids and tweets at the A pillars.

thanks!
