at that size, I've only used Kicker DS series and a cheap set of Kole Audio. both were pretty good but i'd go with the Kickers again and again for the price and sound.

Why exactly do u want to mount speakers there? I just see a coaxial tweeter there reflecting off the windshield doin more hurt than help.

But if u must, id go with a full range driver as opposed to a coaxial so ur highs dont get too bright from glass reflections.

because i drive a Ram and dash is made to hold them..... Thats where my tweeters are now and they sound good, i just want it louder. So i figured move the tweeters to the doors and drop a set of 3.5s into the dash. Bad idea???

This is what im talking about below

Ram Dash

I also had 4x6's in that location in my 94 chevy and everyone that got in my truck said they it sounded great

I guess it you're just after more volume it may help slightly....

I think Boston has a 3/3.5 incher

I've tried most of 'em. Boston Acoustics, hands down. You'll need to bass-block them - I chose 75 Hz blockers.

Dodge 3.5" speaker mounting locations are perfect for a set of tweeters, with midbasses in the doors.

lol really? Cuz thats already how my set-up is, as stated above

Like i said, looking for more volume. So im moving the tweeters to doors and adding a set of 3.5s. For my application, dosnt that seem like a good option?
