97 mustang gt convertible stereo advice

I am ready to upgrade my mach460 stereo in my 97 mustang gt convertible.

Actually I am ready to replace it. I already have a good pioneer headunit hooked up to it.

If I understand correctly currently I have 3 amps, 2 amps behind the seats that power the front 6x8 speaker and back 5 1/4 speaker for each side and 1 small amp in front that powers all 4 tweeters. I also read someplace that non mach460 convertibles have bigger speakers in back. BS or is the encloser bigger on non mach460 verts?

I would like to use all pioneer components if at all possible. Other suggestions for amps and speakers would be appreciated.

I would like to do away with the tweeters altogether. They rattle my mirrors anyway.

I would like one amp to power 6 x 9 5 way speakers in the front doors. I figure these would pump enough of a range of sound I can do away with tweeters.

I would like one amp to power 2 small woofers (6 inch ? ) where the 5 1/4 speakers are in the back. I know I will probably have to modify to make them fit but I can do that.

Is this a good plan or am I on crack?

I do not want to surrender my trunk to woofers or add hundred of pounds of weight to my car. I just want a good sound quality that is reasonably loud. I listen mostly to rock music from 60s to early 90s. No rap.

Also is it worthwhile to install sound deadening in a convertible?

You are indeed on crack. The number of ways in a speaker do not make it any better. You need those tweeters up high, especially in a convertable. Buy speakers for how they sound, not the brand name attached to them. Do more homework first, I would start by actually visiting a store and getting their input first, then come back here to discuss it.

Top Secret, I can tell you but then my wife will kill me.

And i can guarantee it is not your tweeters rattling the mirrors, it is your mid range speakers in the doors rattling your mirrors.

Okay fair enough. I acknowledge I am ignorant but would still like advise to keep from running into walls and ditches and such.

Tweeters stay up high. Makes sense. Roger.

Now if I got some decent main speakers upfront that covers the midrange wouldn't I benefit from two small woofers in the back?

No worries dude, hope you didn't take my comments the wrong way. Find yourself a good set of oversize 6.5" component speakers. Good speakers are Focal, Morel, Macrom, Dynaudio, MB Quart (as long as they say made in Germany on the back). This is all you need for front speakers. Use Brown Bread to sound deaden the front doors to help minimize rattling. In the back a pair of 10" subs or one good sub is all you need. Use a amp rated between 50 - 150w rms x 2 on the front speakers and once you choose the sub(s) then we can aid you in choosing the right type of amp for the rear.
