Re: Sonic Nirvana - How to Build Kick Pods in Classic Chevy Truck

And here is the cutout of the HDF...as you can see, the speaker ring is already mocked up onto the board in this picture. Disregard that for now as I did not take a picture of the backer board by itself...notice how this 6 1/2" driver is being vented out through the cowl vent. Also, notice how this speaker is located towards the front of the cab and the mid-tweet is going to be closer to me. This is
to make sure the high frequencies (which are very directional) are not bouncing around into the dash.

Remember, if I had needed a sealed enclosure for my kickpod, I would have gone to a smaller driver!

Ohhh and I almost forgot...make sure that before you finalize the placement of your mid base driver, that you can plainly see at least 2/3's of the driver from the opposite seat sitting position.
