I have a 2001 Ram 1500 standard cab and I am wondering as far as mid- bass location, would it be best to use the stock door location or custom made enclosures under each seat firing forward?

Will I sacrifice imaging by mounting under the seat firing forward?

Thanks,

Gary

i have a 98 Ram 1500 which i plan on MB Quart 3 way compnent setup ( 8"woofer 5" speaker and tweeter. ) i plan on installing the eights on the door- i got the idea from a veteran installer- and i am usuing the Q pods for the 5 1/4 speakers.

im licensed so if you need the q logic pods (or anything else) let me know

under the seats facing forward would give VERY poor quality sound. You could only do this with subwoofers. doors seems to be the go.

i would go doors all the way under the seats wouldnt work well, you wouldnt get much sound by the time the waves came back from the dash
