Anyway just want to know where do you guys have the tweeters? Do everyone just use the stock A pillar locations?

I am thinking either:

What do you guys think? Anyone into sq ? I have a feeling I should have the tweeter at the furthest location from the listener because using time alignment, I can only delay the woofers but not the tweeter.
i have Memphis components up front...and i had the tweeters installed in the same "stock" place...i like to keep it as stock as possible...

just my 2 cents...

I went ahead and did mine, The tweeter can be swivelled, it will be directed towards passnger. Legs do not obstruct tweeters as well.

So they were not componets?

tweeters are separate on componets...are you's integrated into the speaker itself?

no they are components see how the tweeter is mounted in the door panel away form the mid. i personaly would have mounted them in the kick you need all the height you can get in the celica.

anyway, i would have done 'em in the stock spot...but it was your call....nice mount.

The kick was another location I thought off but my leg would be blocking the tweeters frown.gif

My crossover are now happily in the kicks though.

Tweeters need to be mounted within 6 inches of the midrange driver to avoid lobing. Pointing it to the dome light is an easy way to figure out mounting position.
