it took about 1 minute in to realize I don't know shit about audio. Great stuff!
lucky you, it took me ten seconds.
@@MrSenolan 0.1nanosecond.... THE FLASH!
I knew from the thumbnail......
same here
you and me both person you and me both
I thought the bass part was badly distorted so I googled the original and it turns out the output of your speaker is exactly what the song sounds like. What I thought must have been distortion is the result of how the artist created the song. This was an excellent video showing what can be done with a solid design and made DIY. Nobody would have thought this possible only 20 years ago. Great job!
Thanks for checking.
Holy shit so much bass from such a tiny package. Mind blown.
Tiny?? It's enormous, IMO
Milton B I think Victor means over all size is HUGE!. I'm sure if you took the speakers from the Bluetooth and put them in the same box layout as the 3" driver you would have something better than both. :-)
A teufel rockster cross is smaller i guess and produces more bass😄
@@mxz2024 How flat/even is the bass response on the Teufel? That's the biggest problem with such a small speaker. You can get a lot of bass with the right enclosure, sure, but there will be huge spikes and drops depending on the exact frequency. Ideally you'd want the response graph to show a perfectly flat line from 25hz up to 100hz, but with such a small cone amplified by such a crazy chamber it turns the graph into a bucking bronco.
@@djhenyo true but i prefer a bit more deep bass since its more fun and for an outdoor speaker its better to have a bit boosted bass
Overall teh teufel cross spund good for a portable speaker and is rugged.
You need a video of that woofer just in a small sealed cube for comparison.
Using a sealed enclosure requires double the power to achieve the same level of sound so it's very inefficient and mainly used for people that demand small enclosures and don't care about power usage, but it will be very tight bass response.
@@npham54 It's very efficient at damping, hence... Well, any serious high quality of reproduction speaker will be a sealed box. Unless we go into esoteric shit like infinite baffle.
@@NGC1433 what do you mean 'esoteric shit like infinite baffle' Im sorry it may be due to the fact that im not a native english speaker , but i really dont understand what that means exactly
@@baronnashor158 The baffle is the face of the box that the driver is mounted in. The purpose of a box is to keep the sound waves from the back from destructively interfering with the sound coming off the front. A sealed box does this by damping the back wave, but it limits bass response since the sealed air chamber acts like a spring trying to resist movement of the driver.
A long tube like this design allows the back wave to come out in phase with the front (at the tuning frequency) which then adds to the front sound wave, making for more bass. The tricky part is to get a broad enough tuning to avoid the huge peaks and valleys in the response which give that boomy one note bass sound.
An infinite baffle is really just a giant wall that the speaker driver is mounted in. No box to add damping and limit excursion, and since it is 'infinite' the back wave will never come around the outside and interfere with the front wave. Nor wil it reflect off the inside of the enclosure and push on the cone. Infinite baffles sound amazing, but as you can probably guess are not even remotely affordable, or portable. It's what you do if you can afford to build a house around your stereo.
@@belstain thanks I always wondered what infinite baffle is when I see it on AVS forums and other places but never cared to look it up. Very interesting.
oh shiiiit im not even into audiophile level equipment but this video was very interesting, cheers mate
This is actually science, not audiophile pseudo-science where most of it is made up to add ridiculous price tags on basically thin air.
the driver has pretty poor frequency response range for high end audio gear, but this is still impressive output for a 3d printed enclosure
@True WingChun Sounds like you got your cable directions mixed up, better order some more Shunyata Sigmas buddy. All he said was this is real science, there are gains to be had on certain things yes. But most of the super high end audio equipment out there is never worth it. You *can* get gains from cables and other things sure, but that's on the level of like.. making sure you're not buying shitty RCA's from Walmart. Going beyond a certain level is just chasing perfection, and if you're after that level of perfection you might as well hire the band to play in your listening room every time you want to hear them.
@True WingChun this should be a copypasta if it isn't already
there's a lot of noise in the lower end, but the fact that something so tiny can output that much bass is nuts. it's not super high quality, but i'm sure you could design one that is. i feel like this one was just to get the point across. very impressive.
Just imagine the sound bar you could make with two of these and the appropriate mid-range and tweeters. Even without a floor mounted separate sub. Nice work.
TheCgOrion I have been looking into passive soundbars and i think you’re absolutely right! I am looking into making a passive LCR soundbar that you can power with any 5.1 receiver or like you stated, a 2.0 sound bar that will actually sound good when listening to music
I'm a simple engineer. I see a 3D printed enclosure for speakers done by Hexibase I click like.Its that simple!
Anyone else notice that he splits the video *on beat*?? Details covered, my man. Subscribed!
I was so hoping for a download link for the box to print for myself lol
@@HexiBase sort of looks like you could create a slot type setup if the wall thickness isn't an issue for strength with that filament. Maybe a little smaller male portion to allow for a good amount of epoxy to ride in the slot and glue the two together. Probably don't need the wave profile if you do the slot.
@@HexiBase If you haven't already, try printing the two halves flat, then lightly sand to knock down any imperfections, then JB weld. You could also attempt plastic welding, certain chemicals will melt the surface of certain plastics, making them 'weld' together; though I'm not sure how effective this would be over that much surface area.
Because of the complexity of the inside of the box, if sanding then bonding doesn't resolve the issue, you may have to get more creative in how you print this.
@@HexiBase I'd love to have the plans to print the box even at it's current state. :) Great work! Maybe make it downloadable for a donation or a small fee? :)
If it would've been Printed in ABS, Acetone is a great "seal and bonder" for ABS. I glue my ABS prints primarily with Acetone, as it feels after drying like on solid piece.
But great work you did Anyways.
Printing that with most normal Printers might be hard, specially warping might be critical. I have a delta, I can't print it, Printbed is round...:D
You could have a slot on one side with a raised ridge on the other. Fill the slot with epoxy and put em together! Should work to seal any leaks.
The quality of that mic tripped me out
When he took his "ears" and walked out of the room... Holy shit. Subbed, Bud. This is impressive.
DIY speaker video where the maker actually knows stuff about audio, this is something you dont see often or at all really lol I love this a lot man
For the bass that it handles, instead of JB welding smooth surfaces, I would use the middle 50% of all of the walls to make a tongue and groove. It will increase the area of the adhesion surface, and eliminate any air leaks you may get from separation on smooth surfaces.
Restoring faith in traditional speakers vs. Bluetooth noisemakers.
I like the way, even the headphones (plural) are organized in his studio.
Thanks for sharing [shake]
The quality of his enclosure and the sub have nothing to do with being wired vs wireless. He could hook this up to a bluetooth receiver and it would sound the same. He actually seems to have the bluetooth "noisemaker" directly wired in. So that's fairly irrelevant.
jbl bluetooth speakers sound good

I remember like 15 years ago, when my brother an I built our own subwoofer enclosures with particle board and we had this 18" sub with a shallow deflection and I put it in the apartment I lived in during my apprenticeship. It was a bass horn and the low end rumble carried 6 stories down into the basement. It was like someone was running a asphalt steam roller through the building. The music wasn't even that lout but the tuning of the driver and the enclosure was bang on with the resonance frequency of the building. That was the first time we utilized a software to determine the dimensions we needed. MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE. You can't just slab together a box and hope it sounds good. You will always maximize the sound by using the displacement and range you want the driver to work in.
Thanks for sharing, you woke a childhood memory I cherish a lot. Especially thinking of the people that came out on the streets, looking up and wondering what the rumble was...you couldn't actually trace the woofer very well at all, the building resonated THAT WELL with it. Think of a sub the size of a 8 story apartment block 100m long haha.
Oh and the bass horn was the size of a dresser and weight in at 70kg, including the woofer.
That would actually work great in a car audio application where space is an issue. That box would fit perfectly under my seats or in the back of my 4runner.
CAMYOTA R.C. You wouldn’t get much bass out of the 3 inch though
@@JacobEcret lmao what if you just print a big ass one in pieces and put a sub in THAT
@@joshd7438 use wood. faster and cheaper.
@@digibluh different sound
@@joshd7438 wood almost always sounds better
This is reminiscent of Dr. Bose at MIT. His work in the area of direct reflect speaker design led the way for the entire miniaturization of home audio. It also made him a few bucks in the process! 😉 Noise cancellation was only theoretical before he started experimenting and then he mastered it. I definitely think there is so much possible with 3D printing it should push consumer audio to amazing places just like u have done here! Nice work.
always impressed with your skills!
This takes me back to the days when me and my friends created sub boxes with wood. We came up with many differant designs and some were very successful.
Great fun for an aspiring engenieer back in the day. Awsome technology to play with today.
defiantly needs a tweeter or small full-range from 500hz up lol
Yes but it is a subwoofer so what do you expect
Or just buy 2 of these. Build 500 Hz crossovers and get 2 inch tech BMR drivers for the mids ands highs. You will get pretty decent bookshelf speakers out of the build.
Gabriel Vieira granted but he was talking about using this as a Bluetooth speaker,unless I misunderstood. I bet it could actually sound really good if you matched it to a full range like David suggested
He was talking about getting the proper sound with the speaker using technology like the 3d printer making it possible to dial in the exact specs and the speaker truly performs to its fullest ability. He sad this was a subwoofer, not a Bluetooth replacement. He was showing the difference in sound vs a Bluetooth for bass response as most Bluetooth speakers has a pair of 2" sometimes larger woofers normally with bass radiator.
bass should be rooted to the front next to sub. 1" apart in the middle
I saw people mentioning you on the 12VTalk podcast I was on. I don't know why RUclips hasn't recommended more of your videos to me. You're amazing! Your level of knowledge and ability to explain is off the charts to me. Thank you! Subscribed!
For a better seal you can always make a female/male sides so when you put them together they seal better. With some silicone in the slot around it should have a perfect seal, some screws for added rigidity and longer lifespan would be great as well to avoid the 2 pieces from separating. A
Also it sounds very empty. It definetly needs a tweeter or a full range to lift the highs a little.
Great box nonetheless
Just came here out of curiosity as I do a lot of 3D modeling and printing. Amazing to see what audiophiles are doing with the 3D printing technology. Thank you for sharing and the time & effort in preparing everything. Cheers!
This guy: E = MC^2
Me: It KiNdA sOuNdS NiCe... I gUeSs?!?
Max Lindner you funny 😆
This is similarly structured to the Bose Wave radio, except they put two bass speakers in about the same sized package. Each speaker has it's own (shorter) tube that converge together, therefore possibly cutting down on the wavelength necessary for supporting the super deep frequency your model seems to hit. Grats on this awesome design!
It it quite impressive. Sound wave is so amazing 😍.
It is simply amazing how some box can make a 30 watt speaker sound like a 200 watt one, just amazing,btw good job bro
Very impressive! Looking forward to seeing the revisions for this enclosure.
Bravo my man! You put together this video very well from the material to the details, please keep up the great work! I would enjoy seeing more builds like this with different drivers and enclosure types!
It'd be cool to see a stereo version of this, and with Bluetooth and AUX in. but I know this is the "Beta" version
Bro this sounded so freaking cool. I love how you switched between the speakers on the beat. It sounded SOO GOOD. Felt like some sort of lofi mix or something. Lovin the vibes~!
Of Course it can!!! I've been looking at that sub FOR a while just never could think of any application to use it in
Excellent test. Shows the MASSIVE potential for this type of application.
You should design a complete 3d printed bluetooth speaker (boombox) with a deep bass.
I am convinced that it will sound very good.
Greetings from Poland :)
The driver with the 3d printed enclosure sound soooo fine.
I have a pair of that TB, any chance you could make the cad available to print at home?
I can’t believe I found you again!! You have been amazing me since the tv speaker boxes. You’re amazing!
your 3D printed one sounds way better than a mass-produced one
Yea, those mass producers "fudge" their numbers to where you don't know what you're truly getting, and what you do get sounds rough and limited in its performance. Massive room for re-design and improvement. This is genius designed and makes those poor mass produced subwoofers feel inadequate, and cry with bass envy, and are in massive need for therapy to work through their inadequacy issues. Some of those mass produced guys turn to alcoholism, break down, and crack their speaker frames introducing a noticeable rattle that makes them feel even more inadequate until one day they end it all and burn up their voice coils. Better to be non existent than be a sub par sub woofer.

yeah but 100times more expensive :D
@@banny123456 its not 100 times more expensive if you already have 3d printer. its only like 5 times more expensive ?
not quite... the other one is a smallbox player/speaker.... compared to a bigbox player/speaker of sony or jbl, the printed one wont be THAT much better
dont forget this is just a speaker, nothing more...
Combine this with some Raspberry Pi stuff, a bit of bluetooth, an SDR tuner unit, a small touch screen, about 4 18650 rechargeable lithium batteries, a few buttons and/or quaternary encoder knobs, the right amplifier circuit, and you'd be able to make a completely modern boombox better than you could currently get at the store.
Dang it hits so deep and low and its basically a computer subwoofer thats crazy. I subscribed for sure lol
This is how they make bass drivers for space limited devices like phones and tablets. If you open one up, you'll see a sealed rectangular chamber, with a similar pattern inside.
real question, can it get as low as lil jon says to?
F*** lil jon, id rather get high!
Ba ra rom dom dom - dom da rom da rah rom - Badda dom dom dom
Lil Jon, is that someone that knows about bass or something? I see here that he does something called bass boosting...
JK! 😁😁😁

I dont know how I ended up with your video, but I’m glad i did. It is truly an amazing demonstration.
I’m an instant fan and subscribing!
Obviously I don’t know what you do with these boxes you build. Might i buy the completed speaker from you - if no one has already asked?
IslandBoy Slot You could ask someone to print it for you
@@maxs.8146 Klixtra ;)
@@Max-do6yj anyone making the boxes he created to sell ?
Now imagine one of them 20'' subs in one of these cases. (no air leaks included.)
That will crack some walls.
obviously scaled up since it wouldnt even work without it being scaled up like 6.66x
mmmmm no
@@TheFreesabin
mmmm marabou
Or the print
That will crack the plastic
It'd sound terrible given that the unit alone would be larger than the entire box, absolutely would not fit the 3" mounting hole, and box volume would be waaaaay too small for a unit of that size.
Well, you did say _"in that EXACT case"_ ...
That is an impressive build. I have one recommendation. If you build another, put a groove in between one of the halves where the two pieces meet. On the other half, instead of a groove, you put in the opposite. This will work as a barrier and prevent leakage and allow you to use CA glue instead of the messy JB Weld.
Finally a yt vid with audio quality that actually does justice to my ultimate ears.
This is why I love 3D printing. It enables people from every expertise to create and allows others with 3D printers to benefit as well.
Should have explained what you thought it was equivalent to retail wise. Based on the binaural mic the bluetooth speaker sounds tiny, and the bass on the 3d print is impressive but distorted. Should have included a direct clip of the track for reference as well.
francis chow the song has distorted sounding bass which doesn’t help.
Can’t believe how well the bass is playing low so far away at 7:45 from that little driver
I'm glad for listening this difference on my 5.1 and not on my phone. :-D
That’s wild dude!! Sounds amazing!!
Can you add a link to download the cad file?

Thanks for the info. Designed and 3D printed my own case. Followed similar straight line approach and got surprisingly excellent response. Fits perfectly in the back seat of my old school 325 convertible with a simple 100watt sub amp.
i should build one of those on a larger scale in my subfloor into the basement where my theater room is. omg!
That would be cool as hell! Let me know when you get it done and I'll come over and we'll watch a good movie with some amazing action and bass... JK 😁

if that's your "theater" sub. prob won't sound much like a theater. but sitting outside at a cookout or something...
p.s. you can still build your own custom sub (parts express) but i wouldn't go with a 3" driver.
Love how u did this great way to compare
True audio geek shit... i love it.. the ppl who dislike this video just didn't understand the concept... and they never will👍🏾👏🏾🤘🏽
Nothing seemed rushed - super clear and to the point. I liked, and I subscribed.
Damm thats damm impressive! But i see from the woofer design itself..its quite capable to produce good sound quality..
Subbed!
@Apollo Smile literally 😂
double damn
Dann that damn damn!
Man, things have changed since back in the day! I used to be a car stereo installer back in the early 1990s. I had a stack of books about sound physics and speaker box construction. Used that with my trusty number 2 pencil, some long math, some MDF wood and a wood shop.
I could have used these tools back then :)
I would love to see this same principle applied in a three-way box 40-250hz 250-2000hz 2k- 20k with a sub box handling 60hz-40hz and another sub for 40 and below, as low as the 3d printed stuff will let you go

Note to self based on this video: Big box small woofer = Big Sound , Tiny Enclosure Miniature speaker = Lilliputian sound
Hey Hexibase. I started with an X, Y, Z axis that I imported into my PDQ program, which automatically converted into a .exe file.
Then I opened the .exe in Google Assistant which prompted the FBI and CIA to merge as one file. Later I used an ISIS sweep generator to bring it up to DHS with a lot of RAM. I used the ctrl to shift the scrnlk, and saved it as a PDF. Later when I played the PDF, I discovered the FBI and CIA merged with the DHS and caused the PDQ to not communicate with ISIS, making the XYL have loud QRM with an RST of 5x5x5, which blew the diaphragm from the XYL's chooch circuit. Now I need to find another chooch circuit that can handle the RAM of 35 RPM. I found a source on line for A.N.A.L lube which guarantees better performance of the PDF when stepping up the RPM of the RAM over 15, Making the chooch circuit much quieter thus reducing the screaming to around 40 DBL. It took a few try's to get it dialed in and everything is working perfect. Thanks for the upload, it has given me inspiration!
Okay, for those reading this ( if you finished ), It was just a joke. I liked the project and what was done, but didn't understand ANY of the technical stuff. So I posted what I basically heard as a JOKE. Did you scratch your head??
Amazing. Maybe a groove for an o-ring and wholes for screws to hold it together.
Read that as “whores for screws to hold it together”
Thumbs up for all the effort and resisting the temptation to make this vid longer than needed. Good job.
Sounds nice (at least through RUclips and my headphones)
seems a bit noisy in the lower end, but i'm sure that could easily be fixed. the simple fact that something so tiny can output so much damn bass is extremely impressive. i wasn't expecting that at all. nice work.
Was expecting to hear the comparison with a regular sub bass box not a tiny Bluetooth radio.
Good video and info though, I was wondering if my PLA Bluetooth sound system I'm building would produce good bass.
You’re a madman! Nice work!
Like some others commenting, I'd very much appreciate the STL/CAD file to download! Either way, thanks for the vid... Subbed!
Man that’s unbelievable for a 3” speaker! You are the Man! Wow!
Any chance of trying to print an enclosure using the Fibonacci Sequence? In theory, its the perfect shape for sound.
It also makes some rather awesome songs.

Very well done! I see a lot of future into this. Imagine a portable mini sub with a bass chamber like this. Coupled all coupled over Bluetooth using ultra low latency wireless Bluetooth audio. And a pro option with a low latency soundcard in it for producing.
A truly portable studio environment for on the go would be so nice.
How about comparing it to a decent Bluetooth speaker, even somewhere close to the same size?
There’s not any “decent” BT speakers that are going to come anywhere close to that sound.
@@erictheboringone5292 Bowers and Wilikins has some to offer like the Zeppelin, Marshall got some, even the JBL Boombox, when dialed in via an equalizer. But hey, you are the sole expert, the best and most knowledgeable in the world, ain't you? So why bother arguing with you? Btw, good luck getting an usable bluetooth functionality in that thing.
@@erictheboringone5292 I'm sure you've experienced every bluetooth speaker on the market, haven't you?
Firstly I never once said I was an expert nor even implied it. With that out of the way I have in fact extensively listened to many of the more expensive offerings from the brands you mentioned and apparently categorize as “decent” because of their high price and recognizable brand name as opposed to their actual sound signature. None of the “decent” aka overpriced Chinese garbage have sound that travels any distance and that’s especially so for the bass notes. Oh and we aren’t comparing the sound after having to fiddle with some pitiful excuse of a 3 band EQ. Sound for sound as they are I doubt any are going to compare.
Have you tried Bose's Soundlink Mini II? I own one and it ticks all the boxes.
My earphones goes wild, the bass was very good!
When you finish tweaking the design, can you post up the download link for it? Id be veryy happy to pay for it. Amazing video as always!
This is Awesome, i'm not a sound expert but i'm pretty damn impressed how good this is for its size. And i'm overwhelmed how much of a science this is by itself.
Now this in compination with some high/mid speakers in addition in a "normal" enclosure on top of it and a bluetooth amp and this would be the perfect selfmade high quality bluetooth speaker :)
Hope you'll upload this when you completed it! ^^
Are you willing to share your .stl or .obj?
i second this
@@juansalcedo2854 I third this! I have this sub already.
I fourth this. I might even buy a better 3DP this time around.
I.... fifth this? Fusion file would be awesome.
Ask AvE to mill you an enclosure on the town pump CNC!
Quite impressively low primary resonance for a 3" driver. You even managed to get some pretty decent extension out of it. Nice work, man. Keep it going.
awesome. now for a 4 piece that you can put a 10" in. haha. but thats pretty dang cool
Yeah I am thinking of trying to do something like this with an alpine type r 10" I have 2 12" but think the box would need to be a lot bigger. Hell if a 3" can sound like that maybe just knock it down to an 8" or two. My 12's in shitty boxes can hit pretty hard, I wonder how much better they would be with something like this.
I admit, I came in, I skipped around, I got to where I wanted... It wasn't until you walked back into the room that I really got perspective on how small that speaker was. That's impressive man, really impressive. I wanted to replace my center console mounted (GM stock) sub in the tahoe, and was thinking on how to improve on the design... this is is. A better thought out enclosure to make best use of the sub, which itself is far larger than what you're working with here. I'd love to have the insight, printer, etc that you have at your disposal there to whip up something as well as you have in this video. Hell, if you're this good with airspace and acoustics, you should get into one off custom enclosure for vehicles. Like Qlogic used to, and likely still does do, but used to be more known for. The remote, custom fit, stock looking options. But yours could have far more going on inside, and 3D printed as to really really really REALLY cut down on manufacturing costs.
Imagine that. A large speaker designed for audio quality, and requires external DACs and amplifiers has better sound quality than a speaker designed for low cost and portability.
Both where getting the audio signal from the dac and apm just so ye know.
Even 2000 dollar subs or setups can sound like crap if there boxes aren't designed for it
Paragon643 yes, but the small speaker was designed to get audio from a phone, so it'll have another amp inside it
@@yungxswiss8824 Yeah... but one key thing... With the same exact box, an expensive speaker and a cheap speaker the more expensive one usually sounds better. Now if you put the cheap speaker in a really good box designed for it, it could sound as good or better than an expensive speaker in a cheap box that wasn't designed for it.
Just wow. That bass is remarkable in the comparison!
Not bad. The comparison is nuts though... the "generic BT speaker" has got 1/10 of the volume maybe. And it includes amplifier, battery, etc ;)
Feeling inspired, took me back to my days in car audio/electronics. they sounded like they needed to be played together to get full range.... nice project and thorough .. thanks
you just first who make video like this, about concert speakers and other audio system. i have concert speakers and amplifiers. your channel best ever. i from Ukraine
Damn...that rocks! Sweet....I could only imagine similar enclosure for a 10" or 12" in Sub..wow!! Thanks!!!!
#Hexibase Would it be any help to create a lego-like link between the two surfaces to still include an adhesive? Maybe the dowels can serve as a guide and strengthen the link between the two-part enclosure. @Hexibase
The measured response is in your room, so not only the speaker produced that result. But it is very low, I would run it through some digital room correction EQ so it sounds flat. Nice job!
Sounds like it's very boomy in the 50Hz range. I'd love for something like this to go down to 35 or even 30Hz
yeah, not really to my tastes how this sounds. But damn impressive for such a small woofer and box.
EDIT: Never mind, that was greatly because of the track used.
@@nimmen Yeah I guess so too. Can't wait for the STL so I can print it myself and try it out.
My 8 inch goes to 40 lol
@@bassdrumflextime1253 well of course, it has about 5 inches larger displacement than the one in the video. My 10" SVS PB-1000's freq. response goes down to 19Hz ±3dB because of the large enclosure of it.
Dang I have my 8 inch in a small enclosure and it goes down to 40Hz
Just needs a handle molded in somewhere along with some places for feet on the bottom, a small compartment for rolling up and stashing extra speaker wire, and some captive nut slots around the perimeter of the speaker hole so it could be mounted neatly with some hex screws. Then it'd be a pretty finished product.

I own a Fiero and the speakers in it are itty-bitty little drivers. 2 3.5 inch in each headrest, a right & left rear channel, then just two front r&l 4X10's in the dash. As far as volume goes, it *seems* pretty loud with the rear channels 4 inches from the ears, but just very tinny sounding. I'm looking to make some very thin wedge-shaped sub-boxes to fit behind each seat, but not be right up against the seats when in the full rear-ward position, or reclined. As a Fiero owner I can tell you that it is easier to get in & out of the drivers seat when it is fully rearward, then I have to pull it almost fully forward to drive it. (LOTS of legroom in such a tiny car) I thought of putting 6X9's in the doors, but I don't want to go hacking on my car. I would rather not have to have a huge amp, but just run them directly from the head-unit. Something like this seems do-able and practical. (in the afore mentioned wedge shape)
