HewesYourDaddy Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 I'm thinking about putting a pair of 8" speakers in my console. Are they too big? Any pics of your 8" speakers in the console is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradM Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 Subs or mids/highs? I have 2 - 7.7's in my console and a 10" sub too. Dynamat is a must around the speakers, on the inside of the console. I absolutely hated how mine sounded until I put $25 worth of Dynamat in there.

HewesYourDaddy Posted October 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 Pioneer TS-MR2040 2-ways. I owned a pair of the 6.5s and they are actually very good sounding speakers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradM, I don’t mean to highjack this topic, but...... Any chance for a pic or description of how you placed the dynamat? Just around the speaker backs, or the entire console interior where practical? Big difference? This is a great idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its pretty lame how I did it, but I'm a big guy and there just isn't much room for me in that access door in the console. I don't have pics handy, but I just cut strips and placed them in a "square" around the speakers. And took any extra I had and lined the forward facing side of the console where my sub is...the black represents the obvious. It honestly took me from feeling like I wasted a lot of money to "WOW...this sounds AMAZING!" It's been there for 5 or 6 years now and hasn't slipped or rotted.
