Hi, I think I posted this in the wrong section before so I have duplicated it here.
Ok guys. Here is my latest thread regarding my speaker cabinet enquiry.
I have bought this cd player
http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/s...tegoryrn_31445
and am getting it fitted tomorrow for £10 at Halfords (special offer). This is where the tricky bit begins (at least 'I' think it's tricky). I assume this stereo will power up the 4 existing in-car speakers right? Ok then, in addition to this I will have a speaker cabinet made incorporating some old guitar speakers (2 x 35 watt 10 inch speakers which came from the same Laney 2 x 10 cabinet - and 1 x 15 inch 200 watt bass speaker from a Trace Elliott bass amp).
I am getting a box made for these speakers by my Dad who is a bit of a DIY enthusiast and has all the gear to make a large wooden box for them to sit fluch in (I want this to be fixed permantently to the floor in the boot space), I am also getting a steel cage to fit over the speaker cabinet which again I want to be fixed to the floor of the boot space. This is to provide secirity and also so that I can still use the boot to store stuff without destroying the speakers by resting stuff directly on top.
Ok then, there are my requirements but I have a few questions.
1. How big do you think I will have to make the speaker cabinet? (the one I am getting my dad to make).
2. How big will the steel cage have to be to slot over it?
3. How can I fix it to the floor of the boot space?
4. If I have to buy an amplifier to power these speakers, which one should I buy and what should I do with it?
5. Will all this fit in the boot space anyway i.e. How big would the box be? What design should I make it? All three speakers in a line or make them into a triangle (one long speaker cab or a more square one?).
Your help would be appreciated.
