i have 6x9's that i need to put in a jeep wrangler. i had the speakers mounted in a 67' mustang before and the trunk acted like a huge box for them, and they souunded great. Now i have them in a little box in the back of the jeep and they sound like crap. How can i mount these to get the best sound?

    you'll have to be a little more specific... do they have less bass? do they sound less clear? you're sure they're not blown? and you're sure the boxes they're in now are solid and sealed?

    They just seem to hold less bass than before. I have no idea about the box. But i do know that the speakers arn't blown

    you could put them in a bigger sealed box, you could try a vented box (a relatively original idea), you could move them closer to the front... lots of options...

    how much are you willing to modify the car? what kind of amplification do you have?

    oh, and note that a vehicle like the wrangler, if it's got one of those cloth roof thingies, will generally give less bass...
