My original Amp rack had a center section for 4 SPX 177 crossovers:

I went active a few months ago but kept the front crossovers in same location for asthetics even though they weren't hooked up.

I eventually moved the rear crossovers to the sides above the seat belts and painted them black to make room for something insane.

I was thinking about building a mach-up flux capacitor, but then i decided on something way more cool....a Warp Drive:

What are you a MIT professor? Very cool! Dumb question - what is with all the cross overs?

I used 2 pairs of Alpine SPX 177r speakers. Each driver set came with it's own crossover.

Thats fancy! I think that you could pass that off as a flux capacitor.
