I know this doesn't really have anything to do with computers, but I'm looking into replacing my sound system in my car. I'm relatively new to car speakers. I'm seeing all these things about coaxial and component speakers and how you can do it this way or that for your setup, but none of the things I'm reading really have any reasoning behind why you should do it this way or that. The only thing that's had a reason was to have components in the front because they come with tweeters, but my vehicle doesn't have tweeter mounts. So should I just go with coaxial all around, or should I custom mount tweeters in the front? I'm just really lost and any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Component speakers allow better placement/location of the individual frequency ranges.  Tweeters aimed directly at passengers with mids aimed in their general direction.  Because high frequency sound is more directional, this gives better sound projection.

 

Coaxial speakers are easier to install, but the tweeters are not directed in the best way for you to hear them.
