2006 Civic SI - HELP!

[jrotary 10+ year member]

I have a 2006 Civic SI and I'm a total car audio newbie - here is a list of items I have going in very soon:

-Kenwood DDX7015 Headunit

-Pioneer TS-A1372R 5-1/4" 3-Way Speakers

-Pioneer TS-G1642R 6-1/2" 2-way Speakers

-OEM Amp Bypass

I ordered these items from Crutchfield (so fitment is confirmed) along with a Schoche dash kit for the installation - a local stereo shop will be handling what I will assume is a simple job.

Which speakers should I put in the door and which should I put in the rear deck? Does it even matter?

These are simply starter speakers. I will be bypassing the OEM amplifier so I will lost my OEM sub and tweeters. I figured I'd order some simple speakers so that I'm not running solely on OEM 1 way speakers.

In the future, I will add a 4 channel amp, nice components and a sub (and run the rears off the HU). That is why I got such inexpensive speakers - later on, I will use one set in the rear and ditch the other when i choose components.

Should I have dynamat installed on the doors? Will it even make a difference with just a HU and speakers?

It is 6.5" in the doors and in the rear deck. The rear deck has pretty much no clearance due to the trunk tension bars.
