[QUOTE="chubby, post: 853423, member: 554735"] did your component set come with a passive crossover? i couldnt tell in your post. regardless, my suggestion is finding a high quality amp(s), preferably two. If you run active you may need to buy several amps of varying power etc for different components. I would build kickpanels to house the 6.5 and 4" drivers on the same axis for better imaging. I don't know too much about the ribbon tweets, however, I understand that ribbon tweeters have a very directional axis, so i would suggest placing these on the a pillar, spend a lot of time adjusting position and crossover points with these as they are supposed to be relatively picky drivers. If you find evidence that ribbon tweeters can be placed elsewhere with success I would make the kickpanels house the 4" midrange and put the tweeters in the kicks within close proximity. then custom door panels with the 6.5 inch drivers aimed at around your dome roof light. do some research on ribbon tweets and find out which of these to options would be better. I would love to have some nice ribbon tweeters to play with. [/QUOTE]
