thats nice and all, but I like having rear speakers.

if i get a set of comps for the front i can take my rears all the way out and it will sound just as good or better right?

Things to consider with rear speakers:

Time alignment-unless you use some, the overall frequency response will be worse than without them. Your midbass response will be even worse than it is now.

Soundstage-because of the frequency response issues and the fact that there is non delayed sound coming from behind you, the front stage that you want will be smeared and not well defined.

Subbass interaction-Unless you seal the back of the speakers off from the trunk, your subs will beat the crap out of them. The subs will move enough air that the woofers in the rearset will get overpowered and if you don't damage them they will at least distort badly.

I removed the stock rear speakers in my car and left the empty holes for the sub to vent through. Coupled that with a really good front stage on adequate power, and I don't miss the rear speakers at all.

i see what you are saying, but my HU has time alignment and i plan on sealing the rear speakers once i get the sub in and i see how much room I have. plus i can still vent the rear deck for the sub if i want to.

You can do that.. I think you can reverce the polairity on the rear speakers if they are in the same air space with sub & they wont get so worked..

let me know if im wrong but I do think that it works..

Also the more you mess mess with the sound the more colored the music will be

so you wont hear what the Artest wanted you to..

set it flat take your time on the install kill the bass boost, keep the gain low, dont over use the time alinement.. take more time imaging the system..

just another deposit of my $0.02
