Default speaker location question

First ........can you put a 6.5" in the rear of the C6 coupe ? Seems like the grill is pretty big and looks like a 6.5 could fit in there... Maybe the mounting hole is only big enough for a 5.25 but couldn't you add a wood ring to mount a 6.5 in that spot, or would it hit the plastic in front of it ?


Also this might be dumb but can you have a 2 way in the door and a tweeter in the upper door spot ? Would that be too much treble ? I know, you'll say use a component set if you want to separate the speakers. I've found a a nice set of 2 ways (memphis audio ) that sound really good, and would like to have 2 sets of these in my car, but it seems like a waste to have the upper tweeter area left blank.

Not sure what I would put in the tweet spot if I did put 2-ways in the lower door, maybe Polk ? I like the sound of their silk tweets. Or maybe some Memphis ?

I'm trying to learn all I can before buying a bunch of stuff.

thx guys Tim
