[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8862908, member: 689267"] In my experience, most people don't have real knowledge of PA or pro-sound drivers and are often disappointed with the sound they make when they install them. You really should have first hand experience utilizing them and they are likely to sound much worse when not implemented correctly in a proper SPL system. Matching any drivers but in my opinion, SPL pro style drivers, can be tricky for experienced users let alone those with limited exposure to their characteristics. Additionally, they pair best with like type tweeters, bullet style PA/horn style (as they can keep up with the output of those type of mids) and that can be problematic when considering your mounting options as they are more difficult to place given their physical size (average depth is usually .25" to 1.5" greater than the average silk/alloy done). Pretty common crossover point for these types are 6000-10000 Hz, deigned for SPL, not accuracy. As stated previously, the 200 hz crossover point of the mid leaves a lot of the midbass out the picture and requires that you add a 3rd mid-woofer in the mix or that your subwoofer plays up to that point which is not desirable or always attainable, sub/sub amp dependant. I don't know anyone that would say that you will be fine listening to this setup until you have a subwoofer in place, just not a good sound. It would be fairly found, just not full/complete. That in mind, the amp listed is a good choice for running the NVX comps all around (I have an open box set, $60 shipped) if you are interested. I usually don't interject sales opportunities in my replies but since you asked, they are pretty decent drivers. They come with everything you need (except grills) and are hard to beat for the $$. Recoil also makes pretty decent budget comps. They would be my option after the NVX' [MEDIA=amazon]B08DNJDR6K[/MEDIA] What car is this going in and what budget have you set aside or are you planning to use for the subwoofer setup? [/QUOTE]
