[QUOTE="The Camry, post: 8338015, member: 657974"] See if there are any car audio stores around your area. Not like best buy but actual stores dedicated to it. Some stores will have a wall where you can listen to different speakers. Thats a start for doing research. 8'' drivers would normally be midbass drivers. If you put midbass behind you. its gonna pull your stage behind you instead of in front of you where you want it. Youll also need an amp that can push those drivers. they usually have a higher rms than speakers do. Go in and talk to your local car audio store and tell them what you have and what you would like to do. See if they have a wall. Listen to it. dont let them sell anything to you, just use their knowledge as a stepping stone to figure out what it is that you want to do and how to do it. Most people will tell you that you really dont need rearfill(speakers in the back) because you want the sound stage in front of you. I have however, heard that the ms8 has a cool feature where it uses rear fill in a certain way to give you a ambient room sound to the music. Though ive only read about it, never heard it. [/QUOTE]
