    Hey everyone, just wondering what type of bass blockers i would need for my door and rear deck speakers. I have subwoofers but cant turn the volume on the head-unit up very high without my inside speakers distorting since i run them off the head-unit and i dont really want to add another amp to run them. Is there any particular frequency cutoff level i want blocked?

    Guess i should post what type of speakers i have, the fronts are 6.5" lanzar components, i think around 100-120watts rms each and the rear decks are coax 6.5" blaupunkt which are i think 40 or 50 watts each.

    I would go with a frequency of about 300-400Hz, somewhere in that range. The roll off with a typical bass blocker is only 6 decibels per octave, a very shallow slope. So this would blend in rather nicely, and help get rid of a typical midbass peak in most automotive enviorments in the 150-200Hz range.......
