Hi,
I got some focal access components up front.. but my daughter complains that she has no sound in the back..

so; which is the better option; to go for speakers in the door or parcel shelf?
I dont have an amp or a sub, so a speaker that can handle a reasonable amount of bass would be good..

ideas? opinions?

CHrome, don't fit 'em in the doors, it really is a pain and isn't worth it! You've already got holes for 5" or 6" speakers on the shelf, so use that. You'll find that the boot acts as a little bit of an enclosure and will give a fair amount of bass off even cheap speakers.

Fitting of 5" just drops into the existing holes. I'd need to check which 6 or 6.5s would be a straight fit.
Cheers,
Nick.
