I'm tired of taking off my door panels and tweaking this, tweaking that, trying to make my orion cobalt CM65 sound as good as I want. They are OK, paired with Alpine Type R tweets, but they are just not as good as I really want. I spend over an hour every day in my car and I want some amazing components. I have a Class A/B amp with plenty of power and a 12" sub sealed in a properly sized enclosure. The sub is great, im using shielded RCAs and all OFC wire,pioneer headunit, Skar Class A/B amp(maybe upgrade the amp later, this is what I could afford right now) But I want an amazing set of components up front. I dont want to cut my door panels to add a mid range so 2 way is what I'm looking for.

Focal PS 165FX
or
Hertz Mille Pro MPK 165P.3

Both are normally about $500 and I've found a couple good deals on open box models on Amazon. Can people please chime in and let me know what you think is the better set? I will be using the passive crossovers for now at least until I can afford a DSP to go active.
 
I have installed the hertz Millie pro. They sounded very good. Mid bass heavy but I like that. its All about the install. How good you do there is how good there gonna sound.
 
Yeah I wouldn’t say the Orion CM is an SQ mid at all. Why not raw drivers? I was going to get the Hertz milli but decided to try out Silverflutes and CT2 tweeters and I’m glad I went that route. That way the money you save could buy you a DSP.
 
They're both great brands and both come highly recommended. I like Hertz more but I think both will treat you better than the Orions. I only base that off great performance I've gotten with Hertz subwoofers.

Sound deadening and door preparations are key to getting the best results towards more SQ oriented within the vehicle, as well as speaker locations
