Audioscape doorbuilds

Hi,

just wondering if anyone has used the audioscape doorbuilds and could tell me if they are any good?

Ԛ£180 seems like quite a lot but if they can help to give a little better "thud" in the car...

the Jehnert ones look real cool.. but I bet they are mega-bucks!

I'm thinking of some JL 6inches for the doorbuild and leave something in the kick-panel for vocal's, and tweeter on the mirror backs.

What do you guys think?

I've seen loads on e-bay or build some your self. They were about Ԛ£60 on e-bay.

Ԛ£180 are you mad? :cursin:
get yaself some mdf mate and knock em up 1 weekend for that money youll save a packet and can spend it on better speakers

or check out the ebay ones but you could still make em for less than they cost good luck Daz

im plannin to do some for mine real soon and doubt it will cost more than Ԛ£15/Ԛ£20 and the satisfaction of knowing i did em exactly how i want em is priceless
like i said before that will give ya Ԛ£160 more to invest in speakers or elsewhere

give it a go mate it aint hard and all the help you need is right here on the zone its what e30 ownerships all about mate DIY :lol:

somehow I thought no one replied to this post as I didn't get any emails... better check the settings.

Anyhoo... thanks for all the advice... that burning sensation in my wallet has disappeared and I have now come to my senses... MDF time it is!

I;ve built speaker boxes in the past but they've usually not been totally square. But those were in my younger days so I am hoping I can do something more convincing with the door builds.

So, one other little thing. Grey trim to match the interior, any ideas where I could get some?

Cheers,
