If youve followed my post then you well know that i shall be putting 8" subs in my door.

Other then sealing the door well with silicone would using that cotton stuff, sometimes put in sub boxes, be a bad idea? I would only use around the sub and areas of the door where the window and window mech would not stand a chance of getting tangled up with it.

Is there n e thign else that i could do to make the subs in the door sound better.

Notes:
Planing on running two kicker comp 8"s with 80-100w each using a 2 channel amp and 8 gauge wire.

Why O Why do you wanna put 8" subs in your front doors...?????

What you realy need to do is have a good front stage... something with plenty
of power. I have Focal Utopia 6" spilts in my front doors. About three weeks ago
i used dynamat inside the door skin and on the door behind the trim.
The sound i got from adding dynamat was just unreal. Cleaner sharper sound.
The mid bass is so clean now i realy cant see why anyone would want to put a 8"
sub there......i would hope there would be a few tweeters in there somewhere also.

I have the same speakers for my rear stage and have done the same with the dynamat on the inner body of the car.....

All i can say is choose your speakers right the first time......if you have to save the
extra $$$ do so....coz you realy get what you pay for i think.........
