[QUOTE="thisandthat, post: 6712811, member: 619173"] Well when I said, "All things being equal, cross over, tweeter, and woofer, is there any advantage to getting a component over a coax other then the flexibility of woofer/tweeter placement." And you said "Component speakers are often made with better materials, handle more power, have superior crossovers and produce better midbass than coaxials." So I'm not sure how I could make myself anymore clear, I was trying to say if I took two identical sets of speakers, the ONLY difference being the placement of the tweeters. I realize that in a car it is very beneficial in lots of cases to have tweeters in a different location then the woofer, but I want to assume for a min that this also wasn't an issue. Simply I'm asking is there a disadvantage acoustically to having the tweeters inside the woofer. Which to my understanding has nothing to do with on or off axis placement (lets say in both scenarios the tweeters are facing straight at your face). Thanks for the input everyone [/QUOTE]
