Mids to go with Hertz tweeters

[srb 10+ year member]

So I recently bought some hertz tweeters, hooked them up using a Swiss audio crossover, and built some tweeter pods using PVC caps (I got the idea from the thread on making tweeter spheres on here). The tweeters sound great. They are loud and very crisp and clear.

The problem is that my mids sound terrible in comparison. I am using the mids from a Alpine type-s component set, but one of them has a huge tear in the cone.

I am looking for a really nice set of mids to go with my really nice set of tweeters. They have to be 4-ohm, and they are going in my doors, which will be deadened, but they will not be sealed in a separate pod or anything like that.

I have found these: https://www.woofersetc.com/p-7176-cx64-v2-image-dynamics-65-4-ohm-mid-bass-drivers.aspx

But I cant really find any information about them, and i was hoping to spend a little bit less. I also liked the look of the Exodus Anarchy posted in another thread.

Thanks for your help.

Looking for a new set myself

I don't think the Lanzars would work. They are 3 ohms and I need 4 ohms. Do you think the other two would really be better then the Image Dynamics I posted earlier?

ide say they would sound great, im personally going with the cadences i think if i dont find somthing used. Possibly the CDTs

Those were the ones I thought originally.

Nice. If no body can post anything better I will probably pick those up tomorrow morning. I am not sold on the CDT mids.
