Component or not?
I have an Acura Legend with stock 8 speakers.
The fronts have tweeters located right next to the 6.75" speaker, they are located on the lower door panel.
This is how it looks - the "o" is the tweeter:
o(6.75)
My stock rears are 6 X 9s and they have tweeters between them, all located on the rear deck.
This is how it looks - the "o" is the tweeter:
(6x9)----o----o----(6x9)
Mkay, my question is, should I get component speakers and put the tweets in stock location, or should I just get regular speakers with built in tweeters? If I get component, the only place I will put tweeters are in stock location.
Which type would sound better, or would they sound the same since the tweets are close to the speakers?
- I'm not going to have subs
- I probably will buy an amp
Please let me know... I don't want to waste my money on components if they are going to sound the same since I won't relocate the tweeters.
BTW, I'm looking towards DB690 and DB675. I was thinking about MMC690 but I read the reviews and most reviewers complained about the lack of bass. While the DB690 had better reviews.
Thanks!

Well thought out post, but you're up in the Home Audio section of the Forum.
Copy and paste to a post in the car audio section and you'll get useful replies.
