tweeter placement suggestions?

[jabartram]

i just started installing my polk db6500's in my front doors, my problem is i dont know where to put the tweeters? i have kicker r13's in the tweeter pods, any suggestions on where to put the polk tweeters in the front area of the car?

so you want to have two sets of tweeter?

Id say keep them as high as you can. Maybe you can make a pod for them and have them on each side of the front dash. another option is to go lower in the front stage and mount them near the door speakers. I geuss it all comes down to how much fabricating you want to do.

[Oldsman]

i personnally would say mount them down by the door speakers that way your imagining and front stage sounds better.

[jabartram]

This is the area i was considering.

[Oldsman]

i wouldn't for the mear fact they could easly get kicked by your feet or get wet easy

your gonna f*** up your imaging. KISS keep it simple stupid, you only need one set of tweeters

put them on the pillar where your seatbelt is connected to to the side of your shoulder.

^i was going to say that

[jabartram]

i actually test set one where i have the pic marked and it sounded great, i havent decided what i'm gonna do yet, i have to many tweeters now, the polk tweeters are to big for the tweeter pods, but they sound brighter than the r13's.

[King Asoka]

if they sound better then take the time to mold them in. I had mine molded into the tweeter pod.

[battistoni21]

why are you getting so many tweeters? not to go off topic at all....

[steve-o]

wants to go deaf sooner... haha just kidding

[jabartram]

its a long story, i just ended up with 2 extra sets, i may sell? kicker r13's.

too many tweeters = too much high end... you only need two...

If anything... put them in the trunk if you plan on putting a complete system in there...

your best bet... double sided tape...

hook them up, play some muisc and stick them in various spots.

Use whichever spot sounds best and make sure your sitting in your usual spot. Also sit in the passenger seat and do the same.

Or you can also use the string method and aim both tweets directly to the center of the cab. Typically you want your sound stage brought up to ear level... Concerts are directly infront of you... this is the reason I never use a rear sound stage as well.

And some of the ppls comments on this are just plain stupid... If you dont know much about audio dont comment. Cause clearly some of the responses are idiotic.

^^^ ya and you made some earth shattering suggestions yourself.

whats your deal anyways you buy a car you did no work to but you think you know everything already?
