Default Sound Setup?

I ws looking in the audio section to see aobut setups for my car, but most of them were for the hatchback TA's. Im curious to see what kind of a setup all of you Vert people have. Also do verts hve less speakers than a T-top? I only count 6 instead of the 10.
I have a full system that I tore out of my grand am but I dont really know how I am going to the the sub setup or where to put the amp. Any suggestions?

Nick

Here's a good reference for sub placement.

Then mount the amps in the trunk.

Front speakers are 6.5" (install tweeters in the dash if you have comp. setup)

Rears are also 6.5 but be careful they don't get too much power. It tends to pull the sound stage back.

This is my set up in the trunk its simple, and "hits" pretty good. The box you can buy for about $60-$100 and well made. I might change the box carpet later for a better look. I have boss tweeters on the doors directly behind the door mirrors, infinity's on the doors, still have the monsoons in the rear. Fosgate amp for the subs, and a DHD for the mids and highs. Very simple set up and it sounds awesome to me.

I have JohnnyBs box and like it alot. It gives me decent bass and is definitely out of the way. I got 2 JL Audio 8" woofers....i think he can do a setup with 4.
