[QUOTE="tplaya07, post: 1312803, member: 552766"] The CDT's are definately very nice "plug n play" comps, and do give you alot of value for the money. However, if you are considering going the DIY route, you can achieve excellent results (comparable to much higher end comp sets), for a fraction of the high end components' cost. The drawback is that for best results you will need a good EQ, whether it be via your HU's processing capabilities, or an outboard EQ. You will also likely need to devote a good amount of time to tuning the system, aiming, imaging, etc. As long as your willing to do these things, you should be very pleased with the end result. And you do not need to use the same brands for the mids and tweets, as you will likely not even see the company badges, especially if using stock locations...in otherwords, pick the BEST equipment for your money, and don't limit yourself to one brand. And like Squeak said, just ditch the rearfill idea for now. Use that money to invest in upgraded speakers, EQ, HU, or amp. [/QUOTE]
