You don't need 2 midranges, where did that come from? Nobody said that.
Peerless SLS 8, and HiVi 3" midband drivers are a good choice, there are others too. There are out of the box passive sets available too, but that is where $$ comes in.

Fs is the free air resonant frequency.
Fo doesn't exist as a t/s parameter.

do you have your doors deadend? I know in those trucks you can fit up to 8" midbass in the door with minimal modifacation. You may want to consider 3 way active. midbass in the doors and 3"-4" midrange in the kicks. then tweets. There are others here that can help you more.something to consider.

Ford Motor Company's third-quarter earnings report released earlier today basically said, "Times are bad, but we'll be aight." General Motors' just-released earnings report for the same time period says "Holy effin' hell, we're running out of things to cut, please help us!" We'll try and it keep it simple, but the main number is $2.5 billion, as in $2.5 billion lost during the Q3 '08. That compares with a $42.5 billion loss this time last year, but the bulk of that was attributable to a one-time charge against the books. Unfortunately, not only was GM North America revenue down, but the automaker claims the credit crisis has made its way around the world and contributed to losses in GM Europe and GM Asia Pacific, as well as its own financing arm, GMAC.Here's the bigger story: General Motors burned through $6.9 billion of its cash reserves during Q3 '08, which reduces its bank account from $21 billion at the end of Q2 to $16.2 billion today. That's barely enough for such a big automaker to survive the coming winter, so In response, GM has announced to create an additional $5 billion of liquidity by the end of 2009. Below are the big changes we can expect.
* Retiming select vehicle programs in North America and Europe by three to 12 months, i.e. lengthening product lifecycles
* Deferring capacity expansion projects
* Lower sales promotion spending, i.e. less advertising
* Less support of dealer network activities and channel consolidations
* Scaling back production
* Curtailing discretionary spending (travel, consulting, over-time, etc.)
* Increase reduction in force from 20 to 30%
Three other things deserve mention. The first is that rumors of the Volt being delayed are untrue. In fact, GM says that spending on the Volt and other fuel economy initiatives will be increased. The second is that GM acknowledged it was considering acquiring Chrysler LLC (though it wasn't named directly), but the merger talks have stopped for the time being. And finally, the main message GM wants to get out via its earnings report is that despite cutting spending even more, it considers government aid essential for its survival. So, ball in your court, Obama.
I just took a look at their last 10Q in August, even that wasn't looking too good
Apparently they don't file their 10K until February...it'll be interesting to see what that looks like...
That info is so silly because they need a full over haul and reassessment of their entire place.

Okay so lets go point by point of the above list.
> Lowering an already mediocre level of quality, fit & finish, reliability, and competitiveness.
> They are way past their limits, they need to run far away from anyone that says or thinks expansion.
> I have been complaining about their relentless advertising, and how the money should be spent on the development and improvement of their sub par line up.
> Nice move, lower dealer support so they are less informed and helpful to the customers with problems with their newly bought vehicles.
> No need to produce what they produce now, cutting production numbers should have occurred years ago.
> Too easy.
> GM lay-off's? No, never.
Idiots.
I think they should overproduce for the next 3 months like mad, then fire the unions and start hiring realizing that they can't produce for 6 months. Luckily the engineering isn't unionized so they could also use the time to re-evaluate all designs and make improvements.
I believe they can only proceed without the unions if they file for bankruptcy. So, they might be heading in that direction soon.

Enclosure size might be effected as well.

19 degrees here, longest fall I've experienced, still were in the 65 degree range last week.

I believe it is a wiring to the amp problem.

Have to figure out how I'm going to wire the CAT6 network & RG-6 satellite with a finished basement. Likely use the chimney space & run a 2" conduit through it from the attic to the utility room, then do drops to where I need it through the wall top plate in the attic.I ran mine alongside the water heater exhaust. Super fast and easy. I just dropped a 2 oz fishing weight on 50lb test from the attic to the basement and pulled the wire up. Or should I say wires as I ran 8 cat6's, 6 rg6's and a bunch of speaker wire.
That would work too I imagine. I need to get up in the attic & look. Probably will be up there tonight/tomorrow when I install the satellite & RG6.

After years of having some type of system in the office for music, I have found headphones to be the best for enjoying it, while still keeping the peace in the house. For as little as $100, you can get some great cans too!

Must have a giant room to excite.

Only way to really find out the exact frequency an enclosure is tuned to is by measuring the impedance curve.

Paid $221 shipped, but I'm Canadian, so I have to pay more by default it seems.

I can count mine, because I accrue an extra 1/2 hour of leave for every day away from home. So, I end up gaining around 7 days of leave as a result.
I work for the Canadian equivalent to the FAA, Nav Canada. Maintain, repair, install, modify, blah blah blah all of the ANS systems in the province of Saskatchewan (Area of 251,700 sq mi, 48 systems in total. 14 sites most of which are fly in only), and spent a good deal of time on training or conferences throughout Canada, but mainly in Eastern Ontario.

By the end of the year, I'll have spent approximately 110 of my 220 working days on the road. Damn.

I put more than $30k on mine in one day just arranging for some travel.The Asia swing correct?

I spend at least 5-6x that on my cc monthly, depending on the time of year, but I still don't hold a candle to Mr. Sean over there. I also don't book my flights yet on mine. I'll soon be doing so though. My airfare this year so far is probably in the $15k range, all within Canada, most of that just covering area in my own province. No international flights yet, but those are coming in the new year, once to Boston, once to San Fran if I can fit it into the schedule. I need to start collecting travel points on that shit.

I haven't really ever bothered to put deadening in the trunk. Obviously not referring to problem spots like the license plate bracket, tightening hinges and stuff but the actual panels.Most of my road noise right now is coming to my ears via my trunk.
