I was looking at the Pol Audio DB571.

Got an iphone? You can download an app called JL audio and is has a built in speaker phase tester. You play a test pulse through the speakers which you can download from the link in the app and it will tell you if your speakers are wired out of phase. 3 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88845-replace-factory-8-inch-sub-options/page/3/#findComment-1488582 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does come on special for about $19 a roll.Think I used.1 sheet parcel shelf1.5 on each door2-3 boot tyre well etc. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88845-replace-factory-8-inch-sub-options/page/3/#findComment-1488594 Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how much difference did you notice with respects to sound quality. I know the stock ICC is the biggest issue with respects to getting an unclean signal, but be interested to know if it's worth pursuing.
