[QUOTE="FJF, post: 6298320, member: 601907"] I'd strongly suggest that you listen to the CXS' before buying. I had a pair that to this day remains as the single worst sounding set of speakers I've installed into any of my cars. This always seems to surprise someone on this forum, making one wonder whether the usual slew of recommendations stem from actual listening experiences. OTOH, as your sonic wish list hinges on frequency response, you may be influenced by other factors than yours truly. Good luck. There's no free lunch. Yes, an amp's wattage is higher at 2 Ohms, but it takes 2 watts of juice at 2 Ohms to generate the same output as 1 watt at 4 Ohms. For whatever reason, car audio always skips over this little diddy, but that's how it works. [/QUOTE]
