[QUOTE="Kybasshead75, post: 8718866, member: 681033"] After doing a whole lot of research recently I have decided to go with four SSA evil 6.5s and four of their tweeters. They are extraordinarily helpful with any questions and I like how they have instructions for tuning the 6.5s in a sealed or ported alignment to midbass frequencies in great detail so anyone can follow. For your sound stage I would not recommend using different sizes and voices ( brands or models) together. Definitely avoid having them facing different directions ( as in the doors pointing toward each other and in rear deck facing up bouncing off of glass all at same time) as it will distort imaging badly and be out of phase. I would use only the doors for the 6.5s with them turned to where the very center of each cone hits you in a line from both sides, 2is good 4 is better lol . Since you can glass just make the enclosure to SSA specs and aim the MDF rings that you would mount the 6.5's on angled to point them at you directly and not toward each other like factory has them. For your tweeters, I would recommend cutting a section out on both a pillars and glassing in a little MDF ring to mount those on to as well, you'll have no problem angling those toward you in the same way and send it smooth and finish to your liking. You sound like you really want to get down so don't be afraid to spend a little on another amp so you can run your tweeters and mids separately. Get an active 3way crossover as it allows you to get a much better preamp voltage resulting in a stronger cleaner signal to your sub, mids and tweeters, it makes a huge difference. Again I cannot recommend Aaron and SSA enough over there. [/QUOTE]
