component systems and speakers....
I'm gonna get a Component system and a set of coaxials for my tC....If I'm not mistaken, the front doors and a 5.25" size. And the rear panels are 6.5" size.....someone please correct me if i'm wrong.....
I'm debating on wether to get a 5.25" component system for the front and 6.5" coax for the rear.....or get a 6.5" component set (tweeter in front door, mid in rear) and 5.25"coax for the door....
let me know what you all think....

dude, components up front , wait a few weeks, then rear...maybe. high end components like resonant engineering and you won't need any thing else. save your money on the RE 12 inch sub and you'll be the envy of your town.

stock front door speakers are 6.3" and the rear being 5.25 I think. You can go to www.reaudio.com and look at their products, you will have to call to order. its the best way to do it.

Comps up front. Rear midbass would sound funny. You don't sit in the back anyways.
Spend more money on better front speakers and you'll be glade you did. I fade out my rear speakers so I don't hear them. =P
What's your budget BTW. You have an amp yet?

see.....that's the way my last system was......i had MB Quart Premium line 6.5" components up front with tweeters on the dash with a kenwood 400watt 4 ch. amp and it was beautiful.....my budget goes wherever....I've already got an amp and sub...but it's nothing special.....i'm just in the process of putting together my next system to go in the tC....right now I"ve also got 2 12"W3's in a JL sealed box that i think i might use.....how much do the Resonant Engineering Components run????

BTW....when i said "an extra pair of midbass in the rear panels" i was talking like some free-air 8" or something to cover high end bass...so i get better overall coverage throughout the bandwidth

components systems and speakers
just call 'em. thats the great thing about RE's. They're not into mass production, just over the top product. i think the components are like $150 for the beginning line. that's what i got. when i spoke to them they kinda talked me out of the xxx's, you need kick panels(boxes) for the mids. for me, it still blows away the competition, you get your dB's from your sub anyway.

I own the RE 6.5 comp. set. and they sound better than the TR's and equivalent if not sliightly better than the XR's. I would go REaudio. I have the SE sub also,which also kicks butt like the w6 for a fraction of the cost, 145 for the sub.
