Audio discussions on car forums tend to be 20 ingnorant ****tards with one actual knowledgable person getting flamed contantly trying to put sense into the ****tards = hilarity.
you dont need to necessarily be right on axis what are the speakers? if im familiar with them there are a few tricks i know about if not you can still try . i would aim the tweet up and in front almost or as close to being aimed at the rear view mirrior on the windshield (only diff is you want to be in front of it slightly) factory door locations are a ***** though in 8 outa ten cars the mid bass mid range gets WELL into cancelation well before it gets to EITHER listener. as a drop in set none active cdt puts out a decent set up for the doors if you are going active (i know you already have the speakers) i would try 18 db cross over slopes on the mids and what ever works well with the tweet. biggest problem you are gonna have is a projected pressence with the set. this might sound dumb but if you have room try an offset mdf baffle aimed up slightly as well. even if its just a few degrees it should negate some cancelation. once you get that done phase hop then do your eqing but only after you create some order, 24 db slopes in my experiences work best in 180- +90 degree speaker placements 18db or 36db for everything else.....12 isnt steep enough to clarify too many things either unless everything is phase correct which in YOUR case i dont see how it could be without time alignment........
