6.5" Mids/Woofers (suggestions as well)

[TheUnderFighter 10+ year member]

I'm building a new component set. Going to be ran active off of an SAX 50.4 for temporary. I will be upgrading to an sax 125.4 or something of similar size and power down the line though. So I need some speakers that can handle at least 100w. They need to be 4ohm, none of that 8 ohm ish. And I'm cheap. Looking to get a pair for under $80.

So far, I'm looking at these: Lanzar OPTI6PM 6.5" Opti Pro 400 Watt Coaxial Speaker 292-2598

Or maybe these Silver Flutes: Madisound Speaker Store

LIMITED MOUNTING DEPTH: 3"

It's going to be ran 2-way active, so they need to be able to play up to 3k or so with no problems. I'm not going to go 3-way.

I'm not an SPL guy, but I'm no SQ judge either. I want loud and clear sound, I don't want it distorting, just loud and clear. I like my bass. Look at my current CDT speakers, I think they sound good. But I can only have them at like 100w, crossed at 90hz or so. So I want something I can play louder and lower. It needs to fit my doors, and fit my budget. If you have any suggestions, or something you're trying to sell, let me know. I'd prefer used just to save money, but new is fine too obviously.

Also, if you have any tweeter suggestions, lemme know. So far this is all I've seen that may work:

Vifa OT19NC00-04 3/4" Fabric Dome Tweeter 4 Ohm 264-1122

Dayton Audio ND20FA-6 3/4" Neodymium Dome Tweeter 275-030

Dayton ND20FB-4 Rear-Mount 3/4" Neodymium Dome Tweeter 275-035

Vifa OX20SC00-04 3/4" Fabric Dome Tweeter 264-1002

Tweets will be in sail panels, and eventually spheres on the a-pillars.

Cant go wrong with the flutes for the price. Been running them for the past 3 years. Crossed at 80hz 12db slope have sent upwards of 125 to each without fail.

bump it up again. @disturbed471985 are you interested in selling a pair? I know you were talking about getting out of audio all together?

I like those Dayton tweets for the price. I have some lying around here.

I'd say those and some Flutes

No problem man, I feel ya. It's a good deal either way.

What were you impressions with these? What are you listening tastes? Comments on mid-bass? Where'd you cross them at and how much power?

 

[mojo1 10+ year member]

i think i put like 80 rms give or take and it had some good midbass better then my 8" powerbass i had those to in a center consle with the crescendo but selling for bigger substage.

Awesome to hear. I'll probably end up picking those up, just gotta make sure I have the depth.
