Default Has anyone?? - 6 x 9 Rear Speakers

Hi all

OK so i have the PureAudio H/U in with DVD screen etc. Nothing over fancy but functional and pretty cool. Now i extracted a 600watt American Pro 2ch amp from another car (not audi) - which is sold - and pulled the 300w Kenwood 6 x 9 rear speakers - unfortunately the cones were brittle - after almost 7 years.

Ok so, today i went and bought ICE 6 x 9 500w speakers. I opened up my boot and i had an idea of where to mount them - right under the metal shelf with the tweeters in the recess that runs across the middle - BUT i will loose high->mid range. I am going to keep the original speakers in for clarity sake and just add the AMP and 6x9's for some extra oomf!

OK, i also found my Pioneer 200w tweeters with crossovers in a box (from 14 years ago LOL) - again, though, i only have the one amp.

So, here's the question(s):

1. Has anyone (i am sure it is yes) added 6x9's on the rear shelf of an A4 b5 sedan? How did you do it?? Should i bother with the Pioneer tweeters? (not really a problem leaving them out). I also don't really want to cut the trim.

2. What would you do in a sedan with: 1 x 600w 2ch amp; 2 x 6x9's and 2 x 200w tweeters.

3. Would i need an uprated battery? or alternator?

4. Why am i doing this? (i have a buddy that does sound comps. He has a 7000w Star sound digital amp - at 2ohm for 2 subs and 5000w for 4 midrange speakers. When he competes he runs it stable at 1ohm and adds batteries to up the voltage to 18v in the car. Needless to say you could get a hernia sitting in there. BUT - i just want a little more bass and volume BUT it MUST sound good.

Any ideas appreciated!!

Thanks all!

If someone has a site/url i can follow to give me some ideas and preferable with pics i would be VERY pleased. I am quite hands-on and able with sufficient tools to do the job.

Thanks again!!!!
