Why is fill a bad thing?

If i had a pair of 8's mid bass with 4 inch tweets in the back, and 6.5 components in the front, with 12 inch in the hatch, why would that sound so bad??? why is everyone telling me this is going to be horrible?

because it is beyond over kill for a small little aveo

I say go for it its your car do what you want. Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one

It's because they will pull your sound stage back, especially since the midbass in the rear will be larger than in front. You'll have cancellation issues as well. Put your good speakers up front, save the money for deadening, which you will need.

Yeah thanks everyone. I think im probably doing the set up i mentioned. I have a feeling it wont sound good but hey. i gotta try! anyways if it isnt what i want il run threeways to the front doors and get a pair of kick panels for the 8's. I am pretty sure im not running the tweeters anymore tho.

One bit of advice I strongly suggest you follow is damping the doors and floorboard. I would spend more money on sound proofing than speakers. You would get a much better sound. Now if you want crappy-ass-ear-bleeding volume, then go for it.

Trust me, you will get respect from your elders, the hot girls, and audiophiles if you sound proof first.

Thanks for the advice. Already picked up 72 sq. ft of dynamite. Plan is to do floor board and doors/side panels. And hatch area. I had another car I regrettable never dampened. I said never again will I upgrade sounds without dampening.
