[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 2484918, member: 555320"] That's not [I]really[/I] what it said. It said that imaging cues for high frequencies are intensity-related, and not time-arrival related. So having high-mounted tweeters [I]can[/I] work. But everything in audio is a compromise.....you gain a little here, you give a little there. I personally am a fan of keeping all the drivers as close together as possible. But maybe I just haven't heard the right cars yet. I'm sure there's plenty of cars that do great with high mounted tweeters. I've yet to hear them though [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG] The cars I have heard, haven't pulled it off well. Thus the sour taste in my mouth I guess. In my car, getting the upper midrange/treble to a good stage height isn't a problem at all (IMO atleast). What I do have some problems with is the lower midrange, though I think right now that's largely due to some resonance/reflections I need to tame from the underside of the dash. [/QUOTE]
