The concept just doesn't work for me in a car. You want your music (sound-stage) in front of you, NOT just more volume coming from behind. It screws with your perception of 2 channel stereo. Unless you are going for a movie-type 5.1 sound. IMO you are better of spending that extra money on better separates for the front.


Separate tweeters and mids in the door, and a nice sub in the trunk is all you need in our cars for great sound. That and gobs of power.

Of course YKMMV and that is all IMO. I know lots of people have rear speakers and are happy with them.

Of course if you get a head-unit with time delay features or a sound processor everything I wrote is moot.
