[QUOTE="hoamskilet, post: 4975978, member: 600189"] I'll try to make this as brief as possible. I'm looking for a set of 6.5" components in the $200 range to go in my 07 Dodge Ram Quad cab. I have a roll of raamat that I will be using to deaden the doors and will be making a mounting ring out of mdf for the mids in the door. I'm thinkin about picking up this: [URL="http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=17194"]http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=17194[/URL] (alpine pdx 4.150 150 watts x 4) to power the components and the rear speakers (stock for now, will possibly upgrade later. Using the rears because I have a dvd player with 5.1 surround sound that we watch movies on). As far as the sound I'm looking for....I'm looking for something that has a nice "rich/smooth" sound if that makes any sense. I hate speakers that have ear piercing harsh highs. Good detail is definitely nice, but just not harsh. So far, these are the sets that I'm considering: Image Dynamics CTX65CS [URL="http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=6201"]http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=6201[/URL] Diamond Audio S600s [URL="http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=11755"]http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=11755[/URL] CDT Audio EF-61FG/TW25 PRO [URL="http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=4630"]http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=4630[/URL] (seems like there's a million different combinations of cdt components on woofersetc. I had a set of cdt's in my expedition that got totaled but i can't remember exactly which ones they were, but i know i liked em) Alpine SPX-17REF [URL="http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=18520"]http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=18520[/URL] Cadence CVL-6K [URL="http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=6030"]http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=6030[/URL] That's my list at the moment. At this point I'm slightly leaning towards the image dynamics set. I don't really have any dealers within a reasonable driving distance to go listen to any of these (mostly just the big box stores around me). So I'm open to any input/suggestions. [/QUOTE]
