What size bass blocker for 3.5's ??

[JonnyBoost]

Hello,

I just picked up a pair of 3.5 Pioneer TS-A878's to replace my busted dash stockers. What size bass blocker would be appropriate? I've seen blockers rated at 100Hz-800Hz??

-the new speakers are 3.5in 2-Way/60 Watt/4 ohm
-I have the factory deck and the car is not a CSII

Thanks,
Jon

and if it matters I don't have an amp. it's just the stock setup

Rear - 2 6x9's
Dash - 2 3.5's

Try starting with 400hz and adjust from there. A 3.5 isn't designed to play very low, will start bottoming out fairly easily. If at 400hz it sounds a little tinny, move the value down in 100 values. Don't be surprised if the speakers sound a little brite.

thanks for the tip charlie, I'm totally clueless when it comes to car audio
