[QUOTE="Jaredl, post: 1786052, member: 566462"] If you're using very high end speakers the stock locations probably won't do them justice. A pillar installs allow you to get good stage height easily, but are harder to image due to smaller pathlengths and tons of reflections. Kick panels will give you longer pathlengths to improve imaging, but will be harder to get a good stage height. If you're doing a 3-way, I'd be wary of putting a huge ribbon in your car. My Aurum Cantus G3Sis are almost 6" tall, and once you add baffles the kickpanels for just tweeters get BIG. Basically, true ribbons will be bigger than the midranges you're looking at. If you've got a lot of cash, Aurum Cantus G1s ($500 each - but they play pretty low and are supposed to be incredible) and Seas Excel or Scanspeak Revelator mids would be an amazing two-way. The BG Neo3s are supposed to sound almost as good as true ribbons in a car, so that would be an option to save space and money if you really want a 3-way. [/QUOTE]
