agreed. nothing harmful will come of mashing a grille into the seatback like that, assuming it isn't hitting any metal. if it's just deforming the cloth cover a bit, no big deal.

I think I mentioned previously in this thread, but if you don't have a grille and you have the kind of contact shown in the last pic on a bare sub, the surround is not going to last long. the cloth and the surround will both wear from the contact, and who cares about the cloth seatback, but you're going to ruin the sub.
Lol... Just can't help yourself huh?

It's all good. I get it. The sub does work, it's not "mashed against the seat back". It's just closer on the top than on the bottom because of the seat angle. And mine is about a quarter inch gap. It's not as awesome as yours. And that's should be good enough for you.

I know you created this thread, but I hope you realize that after you do, not every reply is about you or in many cases might be a sidetrack or irrelevant to the original topic.

I was just replying in favor of the grille shown in post #89, that's all. If you were imagining this was some attempt to dig on your install, it was not. I'm not in your truck, I can't see if you have a quarter inch clearance, negative half inch, or what. I am dispensing opinion and general advice, anyone can take it or not as they see fit. No worries either way. (y)

About me? Lol look in the mirror pal. The guy was happy with it yet you've done nothing but look for reasons to criticize every chance you get. Your nothing but a pest... The guy is happy and so am I. Leave it at that. It's not our fault you way over spent on your stupid system, chopped up all your wires, broke clips and used up valuable space in your truck. And it probably sounds like shit too. That's your problem. If you've got nothing good to say, maybe you should just shut up...

TangBand makes a low profile 6.5" sub. Would this solve some of the clearance issues, ie, use a thin adapter plate and this sub but still have clearance behind the rear seat?

https://loudspeakerdatabase.com/TangBand/W6-2253S
It might help with clearance! But it's really just stuffing that is being pushed up against. I can't imagine it making a huge difference with bass and my seat closes correctly 🤷‍♂️

Edit: Interesting differences here vs the Dayton

While the Tang Band might fit better, I imagine the Dayton would still perform better. The Dayton has a lower Fs, and is more efficient(which is better for the low power factory amp). I'm not knocking the TB though, and it is still probably better than factory. I just think the Dayton should do a little better going by the specs listed. I'm not getting into the Q stuff and which is better for a free air application. I love this thread either way. It's such a simple, cost effective solution that works :)

I like TB too. I tried TB, Dayton and a Goldwood. But it all boils down to sound. To my ears, the Dayton sounded best. And it had the most punch by far IMO. Despite QT, it did not like the enclosure sealed. It could be that there wasn't enough volume, but the point was to use the existing enclosure. Whatever the case, and despite the tight fit, it works.

I listened some of the small bass module released by TB. The small form factor intrigued me. I had planned to buy a couple of them for the slots on each side of the back seats, using them with a good amp, mostly for MID bass. Couldn't find any actually for sale.

Also looked at the 5-1/4" TB subwoofer with a 3-D printed enclosure or a laminated enclosure. Again, couldn't find anyone with the 5-1/4" subwoofer speaker in stock, including the Chinese sites.

I'm probably better off with the powered sub I installed.

Would the Dayton speaker benefit from a low pass filter? Dayton has one that blocks frequencies above 3.5K. I don't know if the B&O system has its own filtering capability, and I only know the basics about speakers in general, but is it beneficial to block the higher frequencies from going to the Dayton subwoofer?

https://www.parts-express.com/Dayto...vncyKoAbqGlCvLKs5nZK-H6uLIONofk0Hao904k99YVWE
no. the sync3 unit (or maybe the B&O amp) has a high pass filter at like 35hz for the 6x9 sub. I am not sure of the low pass, probably around 150-200hz.

because of this filter, if you want to use the 6x9's signal for a separate sub box, you really need a DSP to restore the performance below 35hz. that's why I chose the Kicker Key 500.1 for my sub.

That's interesting it's filtered on both ends.. I thought I had seen a thread with a possible way to modify this via forscan... Luckily the Dayton's frequency response is 36 to 1,100Hz, so based on what you're saying it wouldn't matter if following the OP's method.
