[QUOTE="yacob.naif, post: 2102342, member: 565696"] you can keep them in the stock locations what he meants is taking the time to seal the door to keep the rear wave from cancelling out the front, and adding proper damping to prevent rattles and resonances factory stereos (bose included) don't place heavy (read: any) emphasis on proper mid to lower midrange frequency response from the door drivers, and hence, don't exactly design the car around providing an ideal environment for speakers inside the doors this is where you come in, you have to dampen the door, and seal off any holes that would allow air/sound/vibrations to pass between the cabin and the inside of the door, as well as making sure that the speaker itself is sealed, and mounted correctly to prevent any vibrations, or air from passing around the mounting location, whether or not this required mounting an MDF baffle between the speaker and the door. i would bet 99% of people don't do any of these things, and this is the reason why you can take ANY high-end driver out there, available to purchase, type it into the search box, and find dozens of complains about it, and how it "doesn't sound any better than my $20 pioneers" it's the install. improper door speaker installation is no different than buying an $800 subwoofer, and hooking it up without a box.
