Neel Posted July 17, 2009 Report Posted July 17, 2009 Goal is to have all the speakers as close to equal distance from your ears. That why kick panel locations are so popular, A pillars are very popular because they bring the stage up high, but you will need to use signal ("time") delay to even out the path length because now the drivers side tweeter will be a foot away from your head while the passengers side will be a few feet away. Best way to find out is to try out a few different spots , try the sail panels , top of dash or a pillars... kick panels is where i had my mids and tweets and it worked out great.

lanman31337 Posted July 17, 2009 Report Posted July 17, 2009 General rule of thumb is no more than 6 inches from your woofer to prevent the woofer delay.

I have my tweeter and midbass 6 inches away already in my doors .... i'm adding a second set to my setup ( just tweeters ) .. and i was wondering if a pillars would be a good place Quote

I don't know, he don't know, she don't know and we won't know unless we know your vehicle and either you or somebody BUILDS it. Could be a great location could be bad. Who knows. Quote

enemyofsilence Posted July 17, 2009 Report Posted July 17, 2009 what you gotta do is try different places and see where YOU like it. try to put them on your a pillar. if you dont like it, then try it on your door panel. if you dont like it, then put it right next to your other tweeter. trial and error my friend Quote Team Bass-Hz
