Yeah if youre leg is in the way when youre seat is right back then youre gonna loose points. Really the mids could do with being a little higher in such a narrow car, this will 'lift' the stage and brighten the detail no end. It could also give you more width. Its widely recomended to keep the tweeter within 6" of the mid-driver but if you are using metal tweeters as opposed to silk or 'softies' then they tend to work much better off-axis and at greater distances. Youre subs can be mounted anywhere upfront and as most notes below 80Hz cannot be localised to a position then angle is not vitally important. One of the ONLY reasons you know that the BIG subs are behind you is 99% pannel rattle and vibration of parts...that all. What size are youre front subs? Personally i wouldnt use them as subs, more as Midbass drivers as such small drivers cannot properly play right down to the lower notes. It would be VERY benifitial in youre case to invest some serious cash in a good quality set of varible crossovers for the fronts, this will allow you to tweak the feck out of them and get them sounding REAL nice by stopping them over-lapping by hopefully band-passing them. One last little tip is always try to keep speakers distances the same if at all possible, being as we sit in the right handside then this would usually mean a non-symetrical setup throughout the car! sorry if ive gone on and on but I like to try and help people get the most from their systems. Believe- ive heard £300 systems sound BETTER than £3000 systems. Its 99% down to INSTALL ;) :thumbs: | |

It really depends on how professional you want to go. Most people wont care/worry about where the components are fitted. Although i heard that your tweeter should be down in the kickwell. (for best results) If you are just in an amature class then i wouldn't worry. BUT if you are planning to go for the Pro league then yeah re-do them. | |

I'm sure you'll have seen my home built door pods and where my speakers are. Well it looks like I have to do a bit of redesigning cause the speakers are too low. |
