How about putting 3" or 4" mids in the two side dash speaker locations and use the center 4X10 location to mount two tweeters next to each other? Maybe facing away from each other?

Sound deadening is all done. What about mounting two 3.5" or 4" together in the 4X10" dash location? I have also heard about "Dual Voice Coil" 4X10" speakers for this? Thanks for the help!

I agree. I have had GREAT luck with Rick and RAAM Audio. Their stuff works awesome and as such, they are really busy. Give him a ring, he will take care of ya. By the way, I have used fat mat and had the same problems and worries.........never had a problem with RAAMat. My .02

As far as the HU goes. Will I be giving up SQ with the 8-times oversampling digital filter and Dual 1-bit D/A converters? I see modern HU have 24 bit and "Brown Burr".......I may need an education on some of this stuff. Thanks for any information you may have to help me.

Think I should sell the Sony and get another Nak instead? Is the PA-300 a good one.........it's from mid-90's, like the Mac. Thanks for your honest opinions, I want to do this right the first time. ResQ911
