Hi all,

Installing the 8 in woofers in the rear doors could be an option. For spacious staging up front, the mid/woofer should be as small as is practical. I personally use a 5" aluminum cone mid/woofer and a ribbon tweeter. I have not changed the rear speakers yet, but I am planning to do so.

Band limiting the rear door woofers will make them sound "up front", and the smaller diamter (5") mids will provide superior dispersion and imaging. Try using a "high Q" or "free air" 8" to get the proper match to not actually having an enclosure.

If you would like pix of my setup with the aluminum 5" and the ribbon tweeter, just let me know and I will post the pics.
