[QUOTE="flightz71, post: 6917778, member: 616494"] Wow I started this thread just looking for some speakers... didn't know I would get some much feedback...lol. Honestly do you guys love your TN52/TN53K tweeters? They just sound so **** bright at -6dB with any treble boost at all. At -3 or 0dB and no treble boost... same thing... bright but now music lacks life. Anyhow... I'm driving 150W to each side. Only thing I can think of now is I soldered 14g wire onto a tiny gold molex pin connector to plug into the factory thin 16G h/k wiring... Can that be my problem? Also the speaker wire i used is the silver kind... I heard that might make music sound brighter? Anyhow... I might just try bypassing all the h/k wiring and run straight copper 14G directly from crossovers to mids and tweeters... I'm sure the 150W i'm giving is more than enough now. Also another thing that confuses me... even though I have a 150W amp... my gains are set low and only need to set the HU at like volume 10/30 and they're plenty loud already. If I turn off bass and treble boost as well as loudness i'm probably around volume 15-17/30. With this said... doesn't that mean I'm not utilizing anything close to 150W?
