I picked up a pair of Herts HSK 165 today. I found I like them better then most of what i got to lesson to other then ultra high priced focals.

Tomorrow I plan to put these guys in. The woofers seem to be very well built. Sound at least the ones I got to sample just really did it for me. Much better then the other brands I looked at.

This will be my first comp install so I am pretty excited.
 






Install is done. Will have pictures up soon. Here is a link to my cardomain page. This are just some pics I took this morning.

You can see where I put the tweeters. I also put the sirius dock in the location its in now. Over all the install went well. I think the hardest part was getting the adapter plates for the woofers installed correctly. I did have one problem. Seems I broke the mic for my bluetooth and I have to figure out what went wrong.
 






Okay, update on the system. Rears are running of deck power. I bridged the 4 channel used the old front for left and the old rear for right to give 80rms to the Comps up front, this will be a 2 channel amp down the road.

What should I do to improve the sound up front even more? I know I can put some dynomat just around the speakers, but what else should I do. I am very impressed how much better it sounds already. As much as I paid for those I want to really fully use the sound they give off.

I do plan on keeping the rear fill, sitting still it does not add anything but driving it seems to help with any road noise.
