Blazed instead of fading the rear forward does you amp have separate gain control for front an rear ? You can try an cut back a lil power to the rear an see if it helps. I'm sure you have thought of that already just thinking out loud lol

Even doing that I'd be in the same situation as I would just fading them from the deck. It's still reducing power to the rear mid drivers and would just be screwing with the sound staging. Thus why I just want to put a toggle switch on the rear door tweeters. I guess if I really wanted to get crazy creative I could put some potentiometers on the rear tweeters and really adjust and dial them in lol

Those 2 subs will give you a lot better response if you built an enclosure with subs up an port back. I'm sure it sounds good now but you can always get more with a lil tweet here an there

Thanks guys. I was comparing the jbl club speakers. And looking at it, you're exactly right. It makes sense now. And I thought mounting the crossovers behind the door panel was a no no due to vibration and moisture. If it didn't look bad, I had thought about just mounting them to the kick panels, but there's just no way I can make that look good. Lol I'll take pics of my setup once I get my components in. Yall have already seen pics of my rear doors.

Mount then behind the kick panels. If you want to mount them behind the door panel an are worried about moisture put them in a zip lock bag an zip tie it closed around your wires

Where do you guys buy your car audio ? Have you looked at sonic electronic or online car stereo.com
free shipping on most everything fast shipping no hassle customer support an great equiptment CHEAP !! The amps I run are upwards of 1000 bucks each I got them from sonic for less than half of that until they stopped selling them lol. They do sell cheap crap but they also sell high end. Look at Cadence or American Bass hell they have almost everything you could want
