[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 1101487, member: 555320"] For horns you don't really want anything smaller than a 6.5" for a pure midrange. Two things generally needed in a midrange to keep up with horns; cone area and efficiency. Since they aren't playing high at all, you could even get away with some 8's for pure midrange. If you can find some; Audax PR170M0 are probably one of your best options. I'm not sure if Zalytron ([URL="http://www.zalytron.com"]http://www.zalytron.com[/URL]) or Madisound have any in stock or not. A little more expensive, but the PHL 1120 or 1660 for 6.5" mids. Or the PHL 2520 if you wanna step up to an 8". [URL="http://www.e-speakers.com"]http://www.e-speakers.com[/URL] used to carry them. Honestly if you could find the Audax's somewhere, those would be your best bet. Heard nothing but good things about them when matched with horns. PHL are supposed to be [I]slightly[/I] better....but the price difference is too great to justify the PHL's if you can find the Audax. Off the top of my head those are the best options I can think of that wouldn't cause you to majorly choke off your horns for proper level matching. [/QUOTE]
