Sound stage

If you decide to put the mids in the doors I would put the tweets up top facing the opposing headrest. Also a headunit with time alignment will change the perspective of where the sound is coming from.

don't aim those tweeters on axis, fire them straight across dash at each other. Get a dash mat, play around with the phasing and start off with the mids in the kicks. make sure to seal the old tweeter hole.

I could put some tweeters in the factory locations.

What's a dash mat and where can I buy one?

 

[wenn_du_weinst 10+ year member]

ebay and it's exactly what it sounds like a carpet that goes on your dash. It absorbs the sound that bounces up and down from your dash and windshield.

There is my factory tweeter location. I guess I could always try and locate a Focal tweeter in that spot.

Or get an Alpine CDA-9887 with Imprint like I have.... perfect soundstage. Just sayin'.

we already told you the best way to use them why do you keep trying to put them in other places?

 

[da0s44 10+ year member]

I was just suggesting. Just trying to cover all angles here and make sure to let you guys know everything that's available.

im guessing you picked your equipment up from davids car audio in br . id say get them to make dash pods for the tweets but theyll prolly charge you out the rear. maybe try innovative in denham springs, mobile one out of the new orleans area did some great work but idk if there even open any more

Update**

Looks like I found a good installer. He is going to use the kicks as a base and build them up. Remove the tweets and relocate them to the A pillars facing each other.

let me get this correct. you have the midrange and tweets in the kicks. do you also have some mid bass in the doors?? you can keep the midrange and tweets down in the kicks. I have them that way and it sounds very good. this is how I have mine

you also have a very different car

very true but its the same concept.

 

[wenn_du_weinst 10+ year member]

it still means nothing that it sounds good in your car, because your using different equipment in a different car. it will sound much different in his car.

i was just using it as an example since he feels that he needs to move his tweeter to the top and buy mats and all of that. I know its different cars and different equipment but it cant be that different to the point where it cant be used to give an idea..
