[QUOTE="Papermaker85, post: 8488653, member: 572595"] with a prosound 6.5 you going to be crossing it at around 120-150hz to get it to get LOUD as **** and sound great. when i recommend drivers to someone who wants agood midbass and output i typicall recommend drivers that have a good deal of xmax(4.5mm+) and something with a low MMS and faily stiff suspension and a mid to low QE and FS around the desired xover point. un fourtinally VERY few drivers are designed for this application. most HT drivers have a low Q low FS and high mass of just a really soft suspension and they really dont work well. on the other hand car audio "drop IN" midbass/range generally has the proper mechanical dampening but a much higher Q for the wider bandwidth and free air application. just dropping the nicest or cheapest prosound driver might not be excatly what ya want money.. lucky for you i have just the driver for you. this you can crossover around 80hz 24 db octave. its still a pretty loud lil driver and will give you way better midbass than a 6.5 prosound driver. most 6.5 prosound drivers cannot properly play down past about 120hz Hz. this would give you much better MIDbass and still play up to around 2-3k sorry no link..

If you want a LOUD AS **** but good soudning tweeter do a ribbon or a hybrid planar. they sound much more natural than the prosound tweeter which are ******* harsh and they have killer output with HIGH efficency because of the low operating mass.. 20 watts and your going to want to shoot yourself.
