I am getting ready to do a full install on my trailblazer SS. Its currently just stock Bloes system with factor 6disc in dash. I am planning on running an Eclipse 726E for the HU and from there is where i'm not sure. I auditioned a car yesterday with Mclass Memphis MCC6. It had some great puch to it when every you would hear the drummer hit the bass pedal. It was not coming from the sub as much as it was coming from the woofers in the doors and the rear deck lid. He has his running off of a JBL MS-8. I am sold on the MS-8, that really blew me away. Well, I had wanted to run Focal 165 KR2's, but got to listen to a set of Kr2P's today that didnt do much for me, but the way he had them setup was part of the issue. We listend to Dave Mathews band Live at Bedrock "watch Tower" and every time the drummer would hit the crash symbols they were muffled. I didnt get that fromt he Memphis, but like I said they were setup different. Memphis was running off factory crossover's and the Focal's were running straght into Bi amp W/out cross overs. He was letting the MS-8 handle all crossovers. Both vehicles were running MS-8 BTW. Anyone think I would be happy with the Focals after I did my own tweaking, or should I not spend the money and just run the Memphis. Almost half the cost for MA. My original plan was running the Focal's in the Q form kick pannel, and putting just the Memphis 6.5 Woofer in the door for added mid bass. And possibley running 1 Memphis Shallow mount 12 in the back as I don't want to give up any cargo space. Let me know what you guys think. Pick away. All in all I am looking for good SQ, but want some kick to the mids!
