A-pillar tweeter mount positions question
What would be the SQ difference between the following positions (assuming all are mounted at the point where the corner of the A pillar where it meets the dash)
1) Facing each-other (flush or surface mount)
2) Angled in facing center line of the cabin at ear-height
3) Shooting straight at the head of the person of that side seat

Really depends on the tweeter. Try but them in different places and see how they sound; all tweeters are different, but you are putting them in the right place. Tweeters on the dash of a Corvette will raise the sound stage so that it will be in front of you, on the dash, not behind you.

Basic specs:
1" diam ring radiator with wave guide
25w (75w available supplied power)
600-60K hZ response range
86dB sensitivity
I'm running them through an active 3-way crossover so that helps to give me additional tuning options.

...and I drove around for about a month or so with them taped up in all sorts of configurations. In the end, I liked this the best.
