Professional Tips

Some installers construct mounting surfaces from MDF. This dense 

material dampens resonances and provides a rigid mounting surface.

In cases where the speaker is being mounted on the surface of the

interior door panel and there is a gap between the panel and the

metal of the door, an appropriate thickness of MDF can be used as 

a spacer.

When mounting the speakers in nonstandard locations in the front 

of the car, try mounting them as high up and forward in the doors as

possible to avoid firing into knees, seats and other obstructions.
