My door pods
My door pods
Well last year about this time i decided to do some door pods. I never got around to doing it so now i am. :) 1 selenium 8 and 1 selenium st200 tweeter in each door. Keeping it simple since this is my first set of door pods. Here some pics. I know there are a lot of imperfections but i got to learn somewhere.
Taping off the door

First layer of resin and mat.

After 3 layers, i pulled the mold off the door.

Heres 1 8 and 1 tweeter.

Started drawing out the speaker and tweeter mounting rings.

Make any progress?
I wanted to note that those speakers really wont work well for you. im sure you know that those are "pro audio" the supertweeter only has a 40deg dispersion path. They will need to be aimed directly at your ears or you will have a large dip in system response. the woofer only has a 2-3mm Xmax. not to mention they are extremely sensitive. they will be real loud but will lack warmth and should be very harsh. *
8" mid basses can sound awesome but you should use them with a dedicated mid-range or full range speaker in addition to a tweeter. instead of just a tweeter.
I would rather see you use one of those SA8 instead. find your self a fullrange with good upperend response to go with it.
