Going to be centre speaker for surround sound

Your set up is looking great man!
You mentioned you are going to use a center speaker for your surround sound. Where would you put this, I don't think I've ever heard of having a center speaker in a car! Such a cool idea. I'm guessing it will be mounted under your PC screen?
I'm in the process of installing a car PC as well and I'm also using Jaycar amps. I will post pics once it is done.
Good work and gratz on the car PC, I'm very impressed.
btw I don't think I've ever seen anybody change their avatar as many times as you have heh.
will go pretty close to where it is in the pic, there is enough room to make up a mount and fit it in the cavity beind where it is in the pic, it only a 4" but most front centers are small even in home theater, normally just voices etc in movies. watched a movie tonight in car (while parked), and had some voices missing putting it down to not having front center connected, will check tommorow but if it was then def need front center.Quote:

craazy lotsa respect dray
mind giving us a breakdown of the cost of ur project? lol
Hey Dray,
If you are thinking of having your cones facing into the cabin, have you thought of putting perspex on the back of the sub box to show off your magnets? You will have to make sure the inside of you sub box is nice and clean though. Put some tinted perspex so you can only see inside when the lights are on. Wouldn't be that expensive to make, but would take alot of time. I have seen some photos of somebody in Melb doing it.
I'm still in the process of going through my audio set up. I'm getting a bit of hiss through either my LOC or RCAs so I'm trying to figure that out this weekend.
Also, if you want a 1 Farad Precision Response capacitor, I might know where you can get the old ones that will match your amps. I'll post a pic of mine soon.
