    Eclipse Speakers

    When someone says harsh they should define it because harsh can mean so many diff. things. Superblack can you please define harsh so everyone can understand what you mean? I have the sc8365 3 way components with the XA2000 running them and my gosh Focal Poly V3's can compete with them. I'm...

    LOL, so many opinions.... I'm telling you guys who are looking for co-axial's please go to your local shop who has these specific brands displayed and listen to them yourself.... What sounds good to me might not sound good to you... I know that might sound weird but with sound selection it's...

    You could custom mount them. 6.5's are going to give you a better mid bass but not anything remotely close to what the kicker mid's would give you. I'd say go for 6.5's and just drop the mid kickers if your not a huge audiopile. But if your looking for a crisp all around SQ system keep the...

    Those eclipse speakers sound great to my ears. They are very rich when it comes to high notes and the mid delivers a nice thump. Since your using a 5'1/4" component set don't expect too much mid bass out of them. You won't get the kind of mid bass out of 5.25's like you would with 6.50's...

    Compotent Question

    Another thing, make sure your speakers are protected by baffles when you install them in your doors. Best way is to just use kick panels. Mike

    That amp will push that component set nicely. If your looking for the best imaging/SQ make sure to put the component set in some kick panels Make sure to read that sticky on the enclosure forum about making your own because having a auto shop do it will cost you a pretty penny. Oh, and are...

    Best Co-Axial For $150

    Focal speakers are harsh to some people and perfect for others. I'd say focal but please whatever you do go out to a sound shop and listen for yourself. Choosing what fits your ear is the best bet when you get into high SQ speakers such as focal. I'd also recommend anything made by eclipse...

    help with door speakers

    I second what Wes said. Also go to a stereo shop and listen to them. Pick out what sounds best to you. Most speakers decisions are subjective anyway. Best bet is get what sounds good to your ears. Mike

    Best 6.5" component set in the $150-$200 range

    Focal 165v1's off of e-bay. Focal is known for their high - end component sets. Alpine, kicker, infinity, polk, ect. just can't match Focal, Eclipse, SEAS, component sets. Best bet is to take your daughter to a sound shop who has these manufactures displayed and bring a demo disc. Listen to...
