most coaxials have a softer "surround" so they can react to music faster, so no break in period. Some subs have a break in period of 10-20 hours to "loosen" up. I dont know it if its true or not, but most of our reps that sell us merchandise all have the "story"

Your dash speaker sound worse becaue they are too small and probably being overdriven.
