hello everyone...
i have a question. i'm considering adding a center channel to my 95 ford ranger. why? i want to get the soundstage up a little higher, and cement the imaging a little more towards the center. my current setup: boston pro 6.5's in the stock door locations (about halfway down the door) with the tweeters mounted 3" up from them on the doors. they are being run by a JL 300/4 (75 watts to each tweeter and woofer) off a clarion deck. my plans... i have a set of old polk audio speakers. they are these little teardrop things. a 3" woofer and 1" tweeter on each. i'm thinking of sinking them into my dash in the center, and then wiring them opposite (i.e. left speaker gets right side signal, right gets left). i think i have heard of this being done before. my question is.. has anybody run this or have an opinion of how it would sound? i'm going to power them off the deck initially, then maybe buy a small amp to run them if it pans out. and no, i don't want to mount the bostons in kick panels. i'm almost 6'3" and i need all the legroom i can get. so let me have it. tell me what you guys think!
