Silver Member Username: Wackzirth88K-town, Il U.S. Post Number: 411 Registered: May-09 | So i decided to upgrade my frontstage and ordered a sundown sax 100.2 off db-r, it does 100w rms x 2 @ 4 ohm and 200x 2 @ 2 ohm. Now im looking for some component speakers. ive never looked into good door speakers. i just replaced my stock door speakers with cheap 6x8 3 way pioneer speakers from walmart and was fine with that for awhile. but now id like to get something thatll sound amazing and actually provide some midbass. any suggestions and recommendations are appreciated, i have no experience so any input helps. my budget is around 200, i can spean a lil more if i have to. i think i want to run them at 4 ohms |

Silver Member Username: Gcs8Atlanta, Ga Post Number: 729 Registered: Sep-09 | i just got that amp a week or so ago from the same place, haven't had time up hook it up but it should be a sexy a.s.s. amp. do you want to stick with 6x8's or are you willing to make / buy adapter brackets for normal 5.25" or 6.5" components? do you have an area for a separate tweeter or do you need an all in one speaker. are you willing to make holes for tweeters. |

Silver Member Username: Wackzirth88K-town, Il U.S. Post Number: 412 Registered: May-09 | Wats better 6.5s with seperate tweeter or 6x8s with everthing included in one speaker? Also I found some Polk 6x8s that have the tweeter seperate. How are Polk components, I've found quite a bit of them for good prices. I'm willin to make somethin if I have to. Deathoob, how long did it take u to recieve ur amp after u ordered? N yes I got a refrubed a stock one. I'm sure they'll stand by there warranty being the authorized amp repair place for some good companies. Plus if I ever have questions, im sure jacob wouldn't have a problem answerin them |

Silver Member Username: Wackzirth88K-town, Il U.S. Post Number: 413 Registered: May-09 | do ur polks provide good mid bass, how are the tweeters? my dad recommended i look into polk is the reason i did. he has some polks on his bike, u can hear his radio from quite a ways. before i ordered i read that its 7 to 10 days before it ships so i was jw and yes jacob is every quick about returnin emails especially for how busy he has to be. im going to look on ebay and around some other sits and come back with a few options and get u guys opinion |

Post Number: 16430 Registered: Jul-05 | well iirc some theory i read some yrs ago is that circle speakers are more accurate then oval , square or other shapes so thats why u will see ppl besides myself recommend circle speakers polks are decent but those other 2 brands i listed above are even better to get a even better response from ur doors i recommend u sound deaden them properly by doing a layer on the inner door skin & on that part behind ur upholstery tweeters on dash or "A-pillar" ... |

Silver Member Username: Wackzirth88K-town, Il U.S. Post Number: 415 Registered: May-09 | and i will be adding some sound deadner to the doors. ill probably just order the 6x8 to 6.5 adapter plate off ebay, there only like 12 bucks. also theres a bracket that holds the 6.5 midbass driver and has a spot for the tweeter right next to it so itd be in the door to, or those any good? |

Gold Member Username: MendonmafiaUSA Post Number: 2052 Registered: Aug-06 | i also have polks for the front stage. the mm6 model. i got them while sonix was having that sale on them 140 shipped iirc. well worth it. they blow mykappas out ofthewater and only cost $10 more. they have great midbass but the tweeters are a little smooth and the mids are a bit harsh for me with just deadened doors. some eqing should fix this i just dont have an eq at the moment. if you want better mid bass then do this: http://caraudiomag.com/articles/mid-bass-response eventually i will do this too |

Silver Member Username: SkdooleyRoanoke, VA Usa Post Number: 916 Registered: Oct-09 | I've always wanted to enclose my components. Just never got around to it and not sure if I have the room. It'd probably be a major under taking. |

Silver Member Username: Gcs8Atlanta, Ga Post Number: 755 Registered: Sep-09 | if i spent more then 200 on components i would to enclose them to protect them from the elements. |

Silver Member Username: Wackzirth88K-town, Il U.S. Post Number: 416 Registered: May-09 | How are the crescendo audio components? They have a awesome price and that'll leave a lot of money for deadener. I emailed don at sound deadener showdown and have decided to go with cld tiles from him |
