I had a set for a little bit, never got around to installing them.
VERY well built, and tons and tons of passive options. You can bi amp the crossovers, so you can send a certain amount of power to each of them.

He did a great review of this set. It's worth taking a look at.

I've got a pair of spx 17 pros and an old set of spx 177a's (circa 2004) installed. Until I bought my pros, the old 177a's were my favorite. The 177a's were built by vifa for alpine, and have endured years of abuse and still sound very good. The spx pro tweeter sounds amazing to me, clear and powerful without being sharp. The 6.5's have good mid bass and play quite low. I paid 350.00 online and feel their worth every penny. Retail pricing is absurd. (powered by 300/2)

75 per channel? Are you running an active crossover, or are you going to use the xover that the speakers come with? Your proably better bridging that amp and running all 4 off the passive xover, unless your going active.
Have heard lots of good things about those speakers though.

Bi-amp them on that or bridge it..
ither way they sound great
I have 300x2 on mine..
JL Audio HD600/4 (150x4 or 300x2)
well i just got them professionally installed
i think they are just running off 75watt per chanel and they sound great !
i have a x693 kenwood hu. these speakers blow away my JL VR 6" comps
JL amps are underated for what they can put out
