Common sense... where do you sit in the car... the front. This is where you need to spend most time setting up your system. Fall at this hurdle and you'll never make it! Any gimp can throw a ported box in the back with two 12's and a class D amp and 'tump' the local 'hood'. For me its about more than that...

because usually music is heard from the front i.e at a concert.

you never listen to music from behind, always in front :)

also bass is non directional, so it doens't matter where the sub is.

1. NEVER run a h.unit or amp at MAX gain setting! It will clip or 'crackle' and burn out your speakers.

Forget the rear, buy a set of reasonable compents for up-front and amp them up properly. Thats where you should concentrate! Start from front to back.

How do speakers become 'on their way out'?? Answer is that they usually dont! Speakers are driven by electromagnetic voice coils, the coil is usally either fine OR burnt out, VERY rare is it an inbetween state!
Now thats not to say that the cone/spider could of been torn or damaged and was gradually getting worse but that too is really rare on a midrange unit. What do you mean that they were 'on their way out', did they sound awful? Have you been running your h.unit on its MAX volume setting...

Before you waste anymore cash you need to work out why all youre speakers 'blew-up'. Its well rare for them to all go at once, so either they are all ok and your source has blown up or something happened to the source to make them 'blow-up' lol.
Do some good research before you empty youre wallet again... :thumbs:

Drop the 6x9's and the mids in the rear..

Spend the extra cash on a well nice set of front comps... if you don't have a sub get one 12" or 15" and amp the lot up.

use a 4 channel if your working on a budget, other wise a good class D mono and a 2 channel for the front..

Thats all you need... set up correctly it will sound sweet as...

Whats your budget??
