go Cyrstal or CDT, not Orion. Orion P ****, their tweeter is the worst i've listened to. I've used and a guy in my shop used to have them too and they're really harsh and get real hissy fast. Midrange is decent but not the most musically inclined.

I highly recommend the Crystals, but send them atleast a clean 100w.

they'll take over 150 per side. i can attest to that. every since i got my new deck in, the midbass was much better. nice set of crystals, cant go wrong there.

They'll take over 225 each side, I can arest to that.

I will soon be able to attest (hopefully) to 250+ a side, crossed @ 80hz of course.

I can attest to 300 a side!!! Sound great, and like everyone else said, its not how much power you can send them, its how much CLEAN power you can send them!

dont forget to buy some deadening materials.

yes they are titanium, but they really are in between the two. they sound nice, not harsh. but if they are harsh you would have to point them away because they do not have tweet attenuation.

Yes, its a daily driver, gains are set conservatively though. The amp is a Kicker 850.2, rated at 295x2 at 4 ohms but does a tad more. In all honesty, this is the only set of comps I've had that could keep up with my subs. I love it and although I rarely turn it up, it sounds amazing. Your doors need to be deadened to get good Midbass out of them. BTW: I have mine crossed at 100hz, any lower and it started to take away from my subs. They seem to have trouble handling the power at about 80hz though.

can somebody compare these to CDT HD-62's?
