I finally got home last night at 11. negative 7 degrees, no idea what the windchill was. garage is full of sub boxes to fit my car in so i worked outside and froze my *** off; 8-9 hours of work. 6.5"s think a several other people here on smd ordered a case or two of these off ebay. thanks hank for the find. not sure if i wanted to use 16 of these or 4 phoenix gold 6x9s and 4 3.5" bullet tweeters. ended up deciding on the 16 6.5s just because mass amounts of speakers look sexy. powered by a kicker zx 850.4 [IMG]http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/hs027.snc6/165774_1628748516838_1180320105_31446718_7361583_n.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/hs026.snc6/165686_1628748996850_1180320105_31446719_4748270_n.jpg[/IMG] more bafflz. i'm getting pretty **** good at cutting holes with jig saws but i got kind of careless, ended up not mattering.
