best way to mount mids/highs ?
I have a set of MB Quart 5 1/4" Component speakers (Premium model) that has the capability to be either installed as a separate tweeter and mid, or as a coxial type setup
Question is, I have an Acura 2.3CL. Would it be better to run both speakers in the door as a coaxial type setup? or run the mids in the door and the tweeter in the stock location on the dash?
Kick panels and crazy fiberglass pods are out of the question. Any suggestions?
thanks

thanks for all the responses, greatly appreciated
reading up, some say separating them is good as it brings the soundstage up higher, then others say they should be mounted together so all the sound is coming from one place, and that anything over (insert distance here) will affect the aligning of the planets thus not sounding good LOL

Attache some long wires to the tweeters and get some of that stiky caulking tape (called dumdum?) available at home depot. Then use it to temporarily stick the tweets in different places: Doors, Dash: facing up, cross firing, front firing etc. Listen for a few days on each setup before deciding.
