I prefer a tweet and midrange in the kick and a midbass in the doors. If there's room.

Untreated paper cones are the biggest concern.

It can be argued that many factory speakers use the same style of cone/surround, and last many years at that. But generally it's more desirable to have something that doesn't absorb moisture. That would be aluminum, poly, a coated paper, etc

Glues in my eyes aren't as big an issue with high end speakers, most can withstand far more abuse than what they'll generally see in their intended application.

Surrounds are a consideration as well, foam generally won't last in a car environment due to both the heat and moisture in the application.
