Infinity 62.7i in T/A question Considering the infinity 62.7i's for replacement of my stock monsoon speakers in the doors that are blown. I'm assuming the infinity's tweeters are better than the stock tweets but they would be pointing at my leg not my ears like the stockers do. So which would sound better, the 62.7's wired to use both the woofer and the tweeter aimed at my leg or just use the infinity's woofers and use the stock tweets?

I would personally say neither. Infinity does not make a great set of components. The midbass from their woofer is extremely weak, and the tweeter is to bright. And the new series that you are inquiring about is even worse than the series I have used. The magnets are even smaller and the sound quality has dropped.
I would have to reccomend a set of Polk components in the front to replace both the woofer and the tweeter. Polk makes a solid set of components and coaxial speakers for a decent price. They will work even better down the road if you add an amplifier.

PS: this is coming from a guy who had Infinity speakers all around in the camaro. I even have a set of Infinity Perfects in the garage, which sound nice, but overall the Polks are a better value without adding an amp.

The Powerbass do mount in factory locations and would wire to your factory equipment easily since the crossover is exposed...however, they are coaxials and you do have components from the factory. You can put them there but honestly I'd stay with components for a Firebird/Trans Am application. Crossovers will come with any quality component system. In the case of the Trans Am you can wire directly to the stock wire utilizing the stock crossovers and not use the CDT crossover. Or you can wire the midbass to the stock wiring and run the tweeter wire to the crossover and then to the aftermarket tweeter. You just cut the stock crossover off and use the connector on it to plug into the stock harness. It sounds complicated but it really isn't and would sound better than the stock tweeter and crossover anyday. Plus the CDT crossovers are adjustable.
