No, no, no.....thats a terrible place to mount them. You want the sound to come from in front of you......and especially not a place thats near your ear.

Not even a $1000 set of speakers will sound good with the tweeter mounted there mate ;)

Dont take offence or anything.....just some friendly advice :thumbsup:

so you reckon it's just the tweeter placement, ?? what about putting the tweeter's on those sections where the side mirrors are....

Much better location...also make sure the tweeter adjustment on the crossover is at minimum (be it -3db or -6db) as the tweeter will be closer to you than the woofer will be, so you wanna compensate for that a little.

But i dont know, maybe you like your music with more treble? just have a play with those settings and the ones on your head-unit too ;)

I'll give it a go, and see how it sounds. I was just thinking i was shifting the front stage back a little, because i also have type S 4's up in the dash....

I'd disconnect the 4"s in the dash so you can hear just the splits for the time being.

i had everything disconected, so i was just playing the splits, i'll have another look tommorow, and move the tweeters around, it may just need some fine tuning, or some more power!!:D
