[QUOTE="Oak244, post: 2500436, member: 564842"] The Peerless Exclusives are very nice drivers. Very detailed for sure. I have never heard Norah Jones sound so beautiful in a car before this setup! And for the first time, I can truely hear the bass player in Dave Matthews Band seperated from the bass drum of the drummer. In all my other setups, it was a mix without a true seperation. I have a 15" SI Mag run with 1050 watts of Arc Audio XXK power, so I was not worried too much about low bass quality. I was told the Exclusives were not the strongest at low end punch, but were the most detailed speaker I could get. Honestly with the SI sub and these Exclusives, I have more then enough bone rattling Bass and Hit in your chest midbass. Tomorrow I am going to start tweaking the system... ie gain sets, time alignment and start EQing. I can't wait to hear the results. I am already very happy with the setup the way it is. I can truely say now, that speaker placement means everything! The Exclusive 8's have very little roll off at even 60 degree's off axis, so those did not have to be on axis, but still I was able to turn them so they are only 30 degrees or less. The HDS tweeters on the other hand had bad roll off even at 30 degrees, so it was much more important to have those as close to on axis as possible, and by doing so, my sound stage is awesome!!
