[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8611796, member: 614752"] You will need to pick a head unit or amp(s) with crossovers that give you control over the mid to tweeter crossover points. There's only a handful of HUs that are set up for this or you could get a higher quality multichannel amp to cross over your components. As far as the rest of your thoughts. Orion amps are pretty low end but people seem to have a stiffy for them around here these days. I very much like JBL/Infinity for components and coaxials, but there's dozens of options that'll largely come down to personal preference. Don't get so hung up on a big power handling number on your fronts. There's very little to be gained between 75W and 125W besides bragging rights and limiting your options. Most of the components that can actually withstand a lot of power do so at the expense of efficiency so you wind up in the same place as far as output with a lower powered and more efficient set anyway.
