    Thank you Lasherž, You have given me several ideas to pursue and by introducing the Sub you have sketched out the system anew for me. Resonix is only 2 hours from me so I think I will start there by emailing them to see if they have the time or desire to do an install. The website infers that...

    Thank you Bobby, I am putting these on my list, Does anyone have any experience with the Used Market for car audio? I am guessing that speakers unless open box are not the best way to go Are used subs in enclosures a good value? Used Amps?

    Thank you LasherŽ You have kindly gotten me started/organized which I totally needed, the idea of the Hertz/tweeter or maybe Hertz & Focal components are interesting ideas in line with my tastes in music. I have to look into those and I’m guessing the Focal/Hertz brand mid priced 6.5”...

    Thanks, I am looking at the Resonix site now and will read it more tomorrow, that looks promising. If I understand correctly you believe front speakers and a sub in a separate enclosure (the trunk?) would be best would that scenario then lead us to selecting a 2 or 3 channel amp?

    Also I know that in home audio, certain Speakers pair well with some brands of amps as the respective designers are thinking along the same lines. I see this at audio shows where speaker designers/manufacturers always pair their gear with the same brand of amp to best show off there speakers...

    Thank you again LasherŽ, Looking at the Hertz 6.5“ woofer - would you recommend they be mounted in the rear doors which are also 6.5” in lieu of a sub?
