[QUOTE="Trepkos, post: 4708118, member: 577103"] Well, I've been thinking about it, and even though I am very satisfied with the rainbows, maybe I shouldn't let my old PG rsd set go to waste. So what if I managed to put two component set, "in" the doors? Power them both by the same amplifier, which should drop the impedance load down to 2-ohms which should split 200watts between them; more than enough to operate well. So the placement of the set is an issue, I want them to go inside the door near the current speakers to avoid any imaging or sound issues. But I also don't want to have to cut new holes into the door to fit the devices, but I will if I have to. These following pictures are of the interior door frame, minus the different layers of deadening which are currently on them now. As you can see, the only real possible pre-existing holes that can be used are circled in red, but I would have to cut some of the baffle off to expose the hole a bit more. Even them I'm not sure, I would have to cut a mounting baffle to go over it, but hopefully there will be enough room to fit the magnet.

Anyways, not sure where I can get those, comment? [/QUOTE]
