[QUOTE="Paradigmonds, post: 8301504, member: 661979"] Two reasons..........main reason is that I actually find that if I position them right and get my TA set up correctly, I can get a wider soundstage and a little bit more open sound. I was into super high end headphones and IEM's a long while before I got into car audio so my ear may be tuned more toward width than depth when it comes to staging. Second reason is that I usually have a larger silk tweeter ( 1.5" ) that I will run a little lower ( 2.5k Hz - 7k Hz ) and then a titanium tweeter that I will run higher ( 4k Hz -20k Hz ) Thats actually not what I have right now. Right now I've got a pair of Polk MOMO and a pair of CDT Audio tweeters and both are silk, but the sound is still good. I'm planning to make the jump to a 3-way component set soon and I might eliminate the 2nd tweeter at that point, but maybe not, it'll just depend on the sound. I haven't decided what 3 way set I want to go for yet. The only one that I've really auditioned is the Hertz Mille, which I loved, but I don't want to drop $1200 on a component set. I might be able to get them as separates, though. I'm also considering just looking for a good quality 2"-3" midrange right now and adding it to my current setup, but I will need a passive crossover. I'm running my 80PRS active, so I don't want a midrange trying to reproduce down to 100HZ like the 6.5's in the doors. Biggest problem for the midrange is the dash location where they will go. Its plenty wide enough for a 2"-3" driver, but the depth is minimal, maybe 2" at most. I might start a post looking for a recommendation. Thanks for the advice! Para [/QUOTE]
