Very nice -- I'm considering a very similar eD setup. How do you like the 6500s?

I really like the 6500s, they are really power hungry. I am even debating turning the gain up on the Nine.2x a little bit.

How bad is the imaging using the stock speaker location?

I'm planning on using those components, + 7'' ed's for midbass, then I already have two 12 ed's powered by a ed amp

Damn, nice setup. Definitely post up some pictures of it when you get done. As far as the 6500s, I think they work really well in the stock location, a crisp clear sound....a real nice front stage.

How did you mount the tweeter in the factory location? Was it a lot of work? I have a set of 6000's and ended up mounting the tweeters in the a-panel pointing towards the center of the car approximately over top of the gear shifter to create a decent sound stage.

Unfortunately, I'm still running off the factory head unit, but that will change in the near future. I've got a NINe 2.x just sitting on my work bench ready to be put into the t/a.

you may want to reconsider your choice on the eD 7Kv.2's, as they don't do so well in the midbass area, as I been there done that. I found the CDT M6's are a --MUCH-- better choice for IB midbass than the 7Kv.2's are, especially if you are running an aftermarket amp. The 7Kv.2's are just not very efficient and don't do very well in an IB setup.

BTW, to the OP....looks good! I like your tweeter mount, as I did the same thing with my CDT Eurosport tweet. You can see it in this older pic:

On a side note with more ED praise. I just got the t top box with 2 ed 13Ov2 12s in it.. It sounds so much nicer than my old dual 15 set up with RF HE-2s.

I hadnt heard of ED previously and was a little skeptic even though subthump swore by em.. i mean who doesnt swear by sponsor/supplier hehe
