[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8777137, member: 591582"] That looks like it could be quite a nice sounding system. There might be some better subs than the JBL for what you want to do, and I'd definitely make sure you get a sub and box that matches the music you listen to and that's optimized for your vehicle. I think your mids and highs selection is nice. I would just say that maybe you'd want to significantly invest in the front doors/front seating sound stage with more sound than the rear, and maybe keep the rear simple and lower powered, like a filler stage. You could run a setup in the rear doors that has some heavy midbass, to make good sound for transitioning notes between the sub and midranges, where you have most of the the higher notes and vocals coming from the front. Just saying that as what I would do, based on how you appear to be going somewhat all in on a daily system. I would definitely have the front doors overpower the rear doors. There's a lot of different types of enclosures you can to do to try and specifically try and get the sound you want from your sub. I would suggest doing a custom enclosure. You can make small subs really put out good volume across a wide bandwidth in the proper setup. Box makes all the difference with the sub stage, just FYI. I would also maybe deaden the vehicle some, but it depends on how well it's built from factory. [/QUOTE]
