[QUOTE="Ronin, post: 707429, member: 12714"] I'm not so sure about not hearing the differences...seems like any time I compared systems in the past, 6x9s just sound more muffled and shallow. I used the wrong terminology, should have said 4 channel. Optimally, 2 front (by 2 front I count each set of woofer and tweeter as 1 channel, obviously), and something similar in the back...back speakers typically takes the shape of an all-in-one 2 or 3-way speaker (where the tweeter(s) is mounted above the cone of the woofer). But the rear is not nearly as important for two reasons, 1, I will rarely have rear passengers, and 2, the sound stage is almost entirely in the front. The human ear faces partially forward, so the best sound should come from there. You mentioned putting the tweeter in the same baffle, are you of the opinion that the woofer and tweeter should be as close to each other as possible? Can you not use the housing from the mach system? I thought they had a tweeter mounted at the corner of the dash and the A pillar. [/QUOTE]
