I have a Ford Escape and want to change out my front/rear door speakers. I
was looking at getting two sets of Pioneer TS A6867's( 3 ways) . A friend
recommended putting those in front and TS A6857 ( 2 ways) in the rear doors
for better sound? Said the 2 ways would round out the base. Wouldn't 3 ways
all around be better? If it makes a difference Im keeping the stock radio,
no sub , no amp.
Thanks for any help

You'll need a sub to round out the sound. I would go with 3-way speakers
front and back. IMHO

Call me crazy, but I'd line the doors with Dynamat first. 2 layers.

Crazy.

(you asked for it)

I highly suggest listening to the speakers before purchasing them. I
myself found that the 2-ways sounded better (to me) than the 3-ways. You
may also end up liking something completely different. When I was
looking at getting 6x8 speakers, if I could have gotten the tweets from
the Pioneer's with the mids of the Alpine's I would have thought it'd
been about perfect, so its all personal taste.

Dynamat is good or you can buy a rubberized undercoating at the parts store
and sray the inside of your door panel.

Check out MB Quartz, Polk Momo, Infinity and the Excelon speakers. Let us
know what you liked better.
