I should have mentioned in my previous reply, that I have tweeters mounted
in the dash - that recovers the lost high end quite nicely.

The doors have a lot of lost high end, so you have to turn it up a
lot. The kick panels would be more so. Very muddled sound.
I've been thinking of replacing the stock door speakers with
separates, actually just the woofer. I have Miata seats with speakers.
Have you thought of getting box speakers and mounting them on the
parcel shelf?
