[QUOTE="Highrankman, post: 8409951, member: 666615"] So I am going to finish reworking my car audio set up inside my 2008 Pontiac Grand Prix and I have a couple of questions. My car had actually got broken into. I went to college and left my car at my house not having the slightest concert about theft. I got a phone call one day that my car was broken into. I thought it was a joke. I have a viper security alarm installed and I asked so how did you guys not hear it? Was the alarm not on? My family told me the remote for the alarm needed a battery so they left it unlocked. -.- I was so pissed (obviously). They took my amplifiers, subs, radio, and blew the speakers in the doors and rear. All that was left was the wire and my tweeters and crossover.( I had older JL VR600-Csi) My doors and trunk are already sound dampened. So that is my situation and I am now working from the bottom up. I have my subwoofer a 12w6v3 it will be in a ported enclosure tuned to 32hz build by cscstang [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG]. I have some Alpine spe6000's that I found the junkyard for like $5 just to get by right now and actually came across some SPR 6x9 ( I got lucky) for the rear so my rear fill is fine. I am currently looking for a decent midrange driver for my front stage. There's just so many to pick from! I'm young and rather new to the whole car audio field so I'm seeking some advice on what to choose from. So here is the main question. 1) What would be a decently loud but mainly SQ mid bass driver to match my subwoofer? I've been researching and the one I'm mostly leaning towards is Morel Maximo 6c, but I've also been looking at Infinity Kappa the Alpine Type r's, Focal Access, MB Quart Q and Image Dynamics Ctx. my budget is around 200 if i just want to get them and finish the front up soon. I was also looking at the JL Audio ZR's i'm wondering if there's THAT much of a difference between these and my cheaper alternative stated above. I wouldn't be able to but it all right now but i could purchase them piece by piece over time if it is really worth it. So my next questions are. 2)Is it really worth the money to spend on better mid bass and highs like the JL ZR's or is it not that much of a difference? 3) And should I buy like a matching set? Or can I piece things together like a good mid bass and a decent tweeter set? I also have been looking into different types of setups and there are 3-way which I'm not really looking to do, but there are also some 8inch mid bass drivers I like the Rockford Fosgate ones and the Dayton RS225. My next question is- 4) Would 8inch mid bass drivers be a good consideration? [/QUOTE]
