Front:
2 tweeters / 50w
2 3 1/2" / 75w
Back:
2 tweeters / 50w
2 3 1/2" / 150w
Trunk:
Ported Bandpass Box
2 10" Sony 800w subs
1 Rockwood 500w amp
Soon to have a custom set up in the back of my Cutlass. Here's an idea of how it's going to look:
Grey = Carpet
Black Circle = 10" sub
Black Rectangle = Amplifier Slot
All wires will be hidden, so it'll look nice and clean. Made out of 5p plywood, carpeted with staples in the back. Going to look nice and clean...Very nice. I just have to get unlazy and make it lol
edit: For some reason my drafting program of choice is MS Paint, so don't mind the pixelyness lol

That looks pretty cool. Tell me if this is BS, but apparently it will sound better for the driver if you just have bass in the back. Maybe you could have a switch to turn off the rear tweeters (and) mid range speakers in the back for when you dont have any passengers? Just a suggestion.
Are you having 2 or 3 subs in the back? 3 800w subs, thatd be sweeet

Going to be 3 subs, with 2 amps. 1 amp for the subs, and one amp for the rear speakers. Going to run my tweeters in the front so all of the highs will be heard where they're needed. Something like:
Front:
2 tweeters
2 3 1/2" speakers
Back:
2 6x9" speakers/powered
Trunk:
3 800w 10" subs
1 500w amp, bridged across three channels
1 200w amp, bridged across two channels for the rear speakers
So it should sound pretty nice once it's all done and put together.

Cool, sounds expensive. You built a lot of stuff like that before?

I'm a mechanic and car audio specialist for a living, so yeah, I've built one or two of them ;)
It won't be that expensive. Just have to have the right connections ;)

When you have friends with money and no car audio experience, it's really easy to get a car audio install business going ;)
I install head units, speakers, subs, amps, and I do custom enclosures. I'll put up some of my work whenever I get some pics.

Took my BMW back to stock besides the cheap ass head unit and transfered everything into my Cutlass now. No speakers besides the subs though, and no head unit. That's why I need all the stuff I posted in the marketplace. I'll get some pics up of my temporary setup in my trunk of the Cutlass sometime soon hopefully.
