best mid-bass-mid-range driver for the buck???

[Mx3guy 10+ year member]

I would recommend the Rainbow Germaniums in the 6.5 drivers.

Where can I get those?

What is the model number for those?

why do you need the model #? just go to ascendantaudio.com and click on the poly mids.

What kind of sound will the poly AAs give me? Are they worth it?

That depends whether you consider TIME=MONEY.
Most of these suggestions are excellent speakers should you dedicate the time/effort for the install and build a sealed or vented enclosure for them as they are lower QTs drivers. If you are just going to drop it into your door, do yourself a favor a get yourself a higher Qts driver-preferably a high +0.5x-0.6 to not be disappointed.

I've heard the Daytons in doors are they dont sound bad, but they do sound a bit odd running that wide range and require a bit of tuning.

ya my doors really arent well isolated, theres alot of open area so the woofer is far from being in an enclosure , i can tell ya that maxima's are pain in the *** for car system //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif hehe

but its all good though, ive putted more dynamat xtreme on the doors, and mid-bass came out alittle more , and I redid the mounting of the speakers on the door all over...got rid of the silly anoying stock plastic mounting bracket ! I mounted some mdf on the door panel, then the speaker mounted on mdf and mdf on mdf , and after that i siliconed to seal as most as possible, its really clean and strong now and its more clear and alive for some reason just by doin' this

i guess a really high qts would play mid-bass with autorithy in my case i guess(the higher the qts, the better the response in IB right?)

ill post pics of my doors soon!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Higher Qts just gives you a higher Qtc in an IB alignment. And that higher Qtc generally results in a response that people are more fond of........

^^^ now we know why you have a lack of midbass. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif Buy $1000 mids and they still won't sound that great IMO.

For shizzle!! Dude just spend a little coin and some time properly deading and sealing up those holes. Be sure you put at least one layer of mat on the door skins followed by a layer of Ensolite by RAMMaudio or OverKill by Second Skin before you close them up though. It's not that hard to do...many of us here have done it and will back me up in saying that it makes a difference between an ok front stage and an awesome one!! I'm not familiar with those Polk drivers, but I'm sure that they have more potential than that.
