I will have my damping material tomorrow. I am using componant parts of a foam barrier used on engine rooms on boats. The dampening layer is a 1 lb per squre foot PVC material with self stick. It looks somewhat like the stuff MINI uses. Covering 70% of a panel will stop most of the transmission from outside the car. The foam layer is to absorb any noise in the cavaties including dampening the speakers. I won't know where it goes or where it will fit until I tear into the car.
It may take a while to finish this project with the holidays etc.
Speakers for the front: my list was MB Quart, Infinity, Boston, A/d/s, Alpine. I listen to all these but was never able to A-B compair. I think I liked the Infinity the best because of the middle hi clarity. but...
For the rear 6x9's I was attracted by the low responce of the Pioneer TS-D960R's (24 HZ). If this is true, a couple of hundred watts and little EQ could vibrate the fuel cap and I'm rockin. (No sub in the plan as of now.)
A friend of mine had a source for Pioneer and a price that will make you cry, so sight unheard it's Pioneer all around. I am very impressed with the fronts as I said earlier.
I have ordered two Blaupunkt PA2100's. These are less than 6"x7"x2". They make almost no heat, are very powerful, and will fit in the hollow pockets in the boot.
