Default Rear Speakers vs. 10W6

Well I was reading through the sticky on the monsoon system and found that people have been having good results with the Rockford Fosgate RFP4406 6.5" Subs in the b pillars.

My question is, will there be too much bass with the Rockfords and my 10W6 sub? Or should I go with a regular mid range speaker in the b pillar?

I would say that if you set the crossovers right for the 6.5 and the sub you would have a more even sound.

Are you still using the monsoon amp or do you have an aftermarket radio?
If you are still using the monsoon amp put in the sub/midbass speakers. If you have an aftermarket deck put in a goog 6.5 coax and make sure you have the monsoon amp bypassed so they get full range.

I am still using the monsoon amp and deck. I ordered the alpines for up front, and I guess Im going to go ahead and order the rockfords for the rear.

I dont think it will be too much but I guess its a matter of personal preference.
The monsoon on the camaros have a bass and treble adjustments (pontiacs have a build in eq)

Well I just ordered everything to complete the stereo in my car. I decided on the Rockford 6.5s in the back, the 2 way Alpines in the doors, and a 10w6 in a JL stealthbox for the trunk. I should be sounding pretty good in a week or two.
