CDT 5.25" opinions

[chrisw91 10+ year member]

going to be adding one other set of speakers to each door. already have 6.5" component and 5.25" coaxial in each door. all CDT, but since this isnt a SQ build i have no need to spend top dollar for their highest line. with that said just need some opinions on these, hopefully personal experience...

why not just add another mid ,that what i did on my cdt set.i buy direct ,i'm a cdt authorized dealer

im thinkin i need to go louder on mid and high. adding 2 more 12's, and the 2 sets of speakers barely kept up with just the 2 12's. so im gunna try to even it out by adding another set... or not a good idea?

on one mid and tweet? i only have the classic 6.5" i found they cant handle much, have them crossed over at 120 and still hear the bottom out tap every now and then...

so do we think this cheaper pair will be equally loud, or stop being a tight *** and get the other pair?
