Due to overall depth of speaker locations, I'm limited quite a bit. I could run spacers, but don't want to if I don't have to.
This I think will be the final:
No rear fill
Either repair my CD7000, or go with the CD5030. (If it's less than half the cost of the CD5030, no brainer).
Morel Ovation 6's components for front sound stage
eD eu700's for bass - forward/upward firing under/in front of driver/pass seat
Raamaudio deadening and cell fill (WRX specific instruction)
2 EA JL 300/4 amplifiers - One for active front, second bridged for each eu700
1 EA XXXX Mono D class for LFE
1 EA 12" (or 10") LFE driver, in custom fit and finish box in rear hatch area
This will give me a true 4-way soundstage. Should be plenty, and I'm not worried about passengers not getting audio from the door, since I rarely play the stereo at audible levels with any passengers.
Oh yeah, and your remark about "components suck", I may be saying components, but I'm not referring to passive components. I'm referring to active (amplified xover t/a) components, driven by the 4chan amp. Same thing as you saying driver and tweeter, I guess.
