start off with 4" component up front

92 900 convertible - I just recently upgraded the front 4" speakers for the second time from a pair of 2 way blaupunkts to a 4" component set on sale at crutchfield for $80, the Rockford Fosgate FNX1414 fanatic X 4" Component System. I experimented with location for the tweeter and have temporarily settled on locating them below the dash about an inch from the door like someone else suggested here.
A new experience. This setup creates a whole new soundstage that I cannot even compare to what it sounded like before. The crossovers and off set tweeters really make a huge improvement. For the price, just do it. The front soundstage is much more important than anything you throw in back.
In back I have a long since discontinued pair of 6 3/4 dual voice coil blaupunkts which the 3 way set is driven off the head unit and the extra low end voice coil is drive by a 40 watt sony amp. This provides great tight bass without a sub. I thought this was important until I saw the real improvement that came from upgrading to the 4" components.
