Yes. Try to fit them. Make sure you have power at 8 ohms, a 4 channel or two 2 channels. They are loud and clear as you could ever want.

They are very hard to fit properly in most vehicles.

If you can get past the problematic install, yes they are worth it.

Granted the peeps in Florida probably hook them up on the A/B pillars or in the grill of the car and run them improperly.

No, for what you want to do it's not going to be worth it.

A bunch of coaxials and enough amp power behind them would do what you want.

I would go Image dynamics horn bodies AT least and get a driver that fits them IF not just run straight ID, veritas, USD or illussion drivers to begin with. If you do that you kill 2 birds with 1 stone. SQ/staging and volume.

Are you looking for a super clean sound? Or just plain loudness?

i like very very loud highs and mids and havent been able to satisfy myself yet, clarity is a major factor also
