As it may be true I have listed only one option thus far, it is also very true that everyone else thus far has not listed any options.

Genesis Absolute 12m midrange driver

To name a few other options...

why are you naming midrange drivers for a midbass?

Great advice. He's going to go from a set of entry level PG components to a pair of the best midrange drivers you can put in your car. Makes a lot of sense to me...esp in a thread about midbass.

FOR MIDBASSES?!

Seriously? a 12m for 50/60hz? Really?

No... REALLY?

I own those mids. I wouldn't cross them any lower than 160hz with a brick wall crossover and never play them above moderate volume. NO WAY would I run them down into the midbass range.

No way jose. I like midbass drivers for midbass. also, the bigger the better imo.

...but I know the difference between a '51 mercury and an 'old mercedes.'

for the record…
midbass does not = subbass playing out of your 6.5’s.

I know. Just wanting to know more about where a good crossover point is for solid mid-bass, as well as what speakers will perform the best.

boom: I understand where you're at, but do you have any drivers in mind so far? What's your budget? And I'm assuming you'll be running a sub, too? In this case, I also assume you'll have the necessary 4-way active processing to make it happen.

I was thinking some ID OEM 6.5's or bigger if they make them, or if someone can suggest another known midbass driver, please do so. My budget is around $150 I can go higher if need be. As for subs, I may run 2 10's, 1000rms to each. I kinda want my substage to be rock solid and very powerful, and have the frontstage still be able to be heard decently clean. As for processing, I was looking at some AudioControl stuff, what would you suggest as far as that goes?

I like that hybrid, I've also heard some good things. Well, I've narrowed down how I want to do this, If I get midbasses more than 6'', they're going in the kicks, and I'll have a dedicated midbass in the kick, midrange in the door, tweets above the midrange. If I buy a driver that has good midbass/midrange reproduction, I'll throw them in the doors, so I have room for my feet still.
