It will be loud, but will it sound good?

I highly doubt true SQ is his goal. Just lots of loud obnoxious noise that can be heard from far away...

Id only run 4 tweeters. Those are beyond loud. Im guessing you have never heard them before?

No I have 2 D250-X horns inside my car right now and 2 st-200 supertweeters sitting waiting to be installed.

Those D250s are crazy too.

Its just a personal preference... But I like alot more mid than I do tweeter. Alot of cars get a bad rap with PA equipment because people run like 4 6.5s and 12 tweeters.

For instance, when I run an Eminence Alpha 6, I usually like 1 APT-80 tweeter per mid, or 1 tweet per 2 mids.

But hes stating that the tweeter will be to loud. Truthfuly you would probably be fine with 2 sets of mids and a set of tweeters. And how do you stage that many tweeters and mids?

Well Ive owned both the APT-80s from Eminence, and the ST350s from Selenium. Id go with 1 APT-80 per mid, and 1 ST350 per 2 mids. The ST350s are just so efficient and loud its scary.

which has more of a harsh sound?

 

[galacticmonkey 5,000+ posts]

They are about equal in that respect, but the ST350 seems to be a good bit louder because of the efficiency.

8 mids and 4 tweets IMO..... man you must not care about your hearing when you get older! lol

Back in the mid 80's everyone ran tons of speakers and at least 4 woofers. But I feel that my current system is my over all best sounding, hard hitting, loud, SQ system. And I have 2 mids, 2 tweets, and 2 subs......
