hey guys. whats the best way to get more bass out of 6.5" in door speakers? I have subs which definitely take care of the low end bass i just feel that my front speakers arent performing as well as they could. When I turn off my subs i have absolutely no bass coming from my speakers. i was thinking of making something out of mdf. I have no idea where to start tho. any suggestions are appreciated. thanks |

#1...what speakers do you have?
Most 6.5" speakers are not meant to produce bass. They're meant to produce midbass, but not sub-bass. There's a reason that those speakers are 6.5" and your sub is 8-15".
Deaden and seal your doors the best you can to increase performance from your mids. |

yea i meant bass as a relative thing. I'm not even getting mids out of them. check my profile everything that's in my car is posted. whats the best way to deaden? ive seen pictures of people making small speaker boxes for their doors; i was wondering if that would make sense. |

the speakers could be your first issue. you're not gonna get much bass or midbass from those. but regardless, first deaden your doors entirely. seal them up the best you can. this should make a noticable difference.

Putting them in a real enclosure to the manufacturers specs with a make a huge difference. |
