[QUOTE="zako, post: 7928603, member: 629735"] I don't think that deck power is any more suited for a coaxial speaker than it is for component speaker. A lot of speaker families have coaxial and component version, so they're basically the same thing as far as materials/baskets/cones are concerned. The components usually have more robust crossover networks. Some say that more robust crossover networks may result in more power loss, but it can't be very big, may be up to 10%. On the other hand, if you use components you may actually need less power than with a coaxial speaker. The reason is that in a typical component install, the tweeter is usually moved closer to your head, and so you likely hear high frequencies better. This can be a double edge sword, as some cheaper components have bright, harsh sounding tweeters, so their sound gets worse if moved closer to your ears (some Infinity speakers have a tendency for this). For coaxial speakers, I'd try Hybrid Audio Mirus, Alpine Type-R, Pioneer D-Series. Morel Maximo. For components, I'd consider Pioneer D-series, Morel Maximo, or JBL MS-series. [/QUOTE]
