[QUOTE="1995Tercel, post: 8662173, member: 643428"] Soooooo..... I had a chance to give a few different vehicle setups a listen, and demo multiple component setups today. I listened to multiple in car 2 way component setups, with and without prepped doors, and I wasnt impressed. The components that I felt sounded acceptable were so far out of my price range that Im quite sad. I also found out that my rf 400d amp and low end x9600bhs head unit are also to blame for the lacking sound, and Im not spending the money for quality replacements. I did, however, experience the exact same setups, one with prepped doors, and one with no prep, and was surprised at how much less distortion and more midrange depth there was with the prepped doors. Thus, I have made a decision... I will keep the "acceptable" polk coaxials I have, and just complete the full door prep, and insulate the rear shelf and all four speakers, this will improve what I already purchased, without chasing some rediculous audio goal. I plan on experimenting with covering the tweeters with various materials to tune the siblance out. I cant even get close (sq wise) to my portable, amped in ear monitor setup (total cost 500) without plopping an easy 10 grand in car audio, so Im just going full budget mode, just for some casual enjoyment. Thanks for your responses everyone, and sorry for wasting your time. [/QUOTE]
