[QUOTE="1995Tercel, post: 8662111, member: 643428"] Vehicle is 2000 Honda Insight. It has 4 factory speaker locations, all of which are 6.5" ish. I only mentioned the smaller diameter components because I don't know what size speaker is best. I assumed the larger 6.5 size would have less clear vocals, and more pronounced mid and high bass. I am for sure replacing the polks with some components. I can't listen for extended periods of time, they are very painful. I listen to all genres... classical (solos to full symphonies) electronic (25hz bass music, to older dubstep, to lighter bouncy stuff with pop influences), rock, vocals (not sure how to say it, but spoken solo voice, to singing solo voice) so I need speakers that have great instrument separation, good response, and are smooth and accurate everywhere. Emphasis on smooth, and accurate, as I have discerning, but also a very sensitive ears. (I have many resonant frequency plateaus 100's of hz wide, sounds that don't bother people can be literally past the pain threshold for me) Do you agree with Fifthwheel's recommendation of Morel Maximos in the 150 dollar price range? I was thinking 4" component fronts, with the tweeters somewhere that sound good to me, and 6.5 components for the rear locations (fronts are low by my shins, and rears are chest height behind each seat. I have both seats as far as comfortable from the rears, so as not to block as much sound) Or, get 6.5 components (with tweeters) for the front speakers, 2inch (or something small) mid range speakers (I'll cut a hole or something for them) and run all of them off my existing amp, and keep one pair of polks, for the rear speakers ran off head unit power?
