i started to build the system for my mini
as of right now, I have a kenwood deck, jbl 2ch amp for the front speakers, and a jbl gto mono block amp for the subs, and a pair of jbl gto 6.5 2ohm 2 way comps speakers for the fronts, and a pair of mtx thunder 5000 8's svc 4 ohm
my front amp puts out 80x2@2ohms, and the sub amp puts out 300@2ohms
I have a roll cage in my car, and my standard dash rail has been cut out, but I have a roll cage dash bar, that my steering column it mounted to, and my seats have been moved back as far to the rear as I can get them, my dash rail sticks out around 3 inches or so more then the stock location,
so I wanted to build some boxes for my front speakers
I mounted my front amp but im not sure if I like the location of it, and I was thinking about buying some of those mini amps that are on the market now

this picture I started out with a plate cut out of how I wanted the speakers to lay out, made out of 3/4 inch mdf
