Fiberglassed speaker pods for 6.5

[AllStar1500bd 5,000+ posts]

Might be getting a new ride (Mercedes 190E 2.6L), and looking at its speaker locations, imaging looks pretty sketchy.

Here's the specs... 5.25" sealed enclosure in each door, but located near/behind hips when sitting in the seat comfortably. 4" locations on the dash. 6.5"s in the rear deck.

I'm just curious if it would be more of a SQ difference considering how high end my components are in putting my Boston Z6 comps in some fiberglassed speaker pods on the floor rather then putting the speakers in the factory location. I know I won't know until I try and tweak my imaging to my liking, but just looking for some opinions if anyone has had any experience with sealed floor speaker pods.

when you say floor do you mean in the kickpanel? if so i would go that way and enjoy.

yes, in the kick, the bottom most right area of the cabin.

aimed across the vehicle just in front of the persons head on the window. but before you start glassing, try them there and aim them around, if you can - seal them too.
