[Mk2] [NA] Speaker set up

[bodazi]

hi im looking for the almost perfect speaker setup i used to run alpine type r components in front in my old one but am looking for recomendations if anyone has any.also does anybody know anywhere which supplies made up sub boxes to fit behind the seats i have seen a few on here in pics but unsure if they bought them or made them.

I have in my car

Vibe SEK50 Woofers/Tweeters in the front
12" JBL sub behind the passenger seat running of a 300w amp

This is ample for most things, though I will at some point be fitting crossovers to the front speakers and possibly a small amp.

I don't see the need for upgrading the rear speakers. I put some sony 2 ways in tehre and ended up disconnecting them. I found they brought nothing to the overall quality of the sound.

I have a set of Rainbow SLX265's powered by a Rainbow iPaul 300.4, no sub.

Unless you want to be able to feel the low frequencies, a setup like that is perfect for a small cabin like the MR2.

Fair point. My components put out a decent amount of bass, but yeah I like to feel the worbworbworb from my sub

I do miss feeling the LF's sometimes, but for me I would rather have the space behind the seats for the T-Bars, especially if my euro road trip goes ahead this summer!

It does help running the 300.4 bridged, up to 270wRMS a channel

Dont even bother with the ones near the seatbelts.
