i guess you could use that method but i think the 7" E.D. subs are a little bit of overkill as far as midbass goes lol

I ended up ripping the back deck out and it only took me a couple of minutes. I got the 6X9's put in and the Power Pack is hopefully being delivered tomorrow.

One slight problem though, it seems as though the 6X9's are overpowering the 6.5's up front in the doors. Whenever I play music, I can only hear the 6X9's and the subs in the trunk

Is the only thing I can do is go on the deck and fade the sound towards the front speakers? Or could something wiring-wise have gone wrong somehow?

fade it forward the 6x9's always overpower the front speakers because of where both of them are located add some tweets up front then you might not have that problem.

That's what I thought. I faded it a little to the front and it sounds good now. I can't believe how good those 6X9's sound

Hopefully I can get that Power Pack installed tomorrow or Wednesday.

So where should I set the high/low gain switch on the power pack?

I just put the Power Pack in and I set the gain on high. Wow. I wasn't expecting it to sound this good. I had the bass off and my subs off and when I first heard it, I double checked to make sure my subs were off

I need to mess around with some of the settings on my deck and the gain switch on the Power Pack, but everything sounds much more full now. Its not quite as obvious that I have two 12's in the trunk because the whole car sounds more balanced now.

My Dad sat in my car and listened to mine and now he wants one in his truck. But, he needs all new speakers and a new head unit first.
