[QUOTE="Savant, post: 141148, member: 546108"] If you already have the speakers or can borrow them.. or can get a great deal on 'something'.. why not use it? sure, if you are gonna design a system from the ground up, maybe you don't want to mix.. but what if you are worried about space? 2 15"s take up more room than 2 10"s and a 15".. (at least that's my impression, especially if you are talking ported).. I personally don't see a reason to buy 'more speaker than you need' for an application.. 12"s sound better at 40 Hz than 10"s.. but I didn't want to over-run the 12"s by making them go to 175(ish).. so I got 10"s for that (~75 - ~175).. It's all a matter of what you are trying to do.. somethings might not make sense, but in this guys case, I think he's got a good idea.. save space, get some real good bottom, **** good 'near bottom' on the 10's.. etc.. Eventually I'm gonna get either 8"s or 6.5"s for the back seats area for picking up from the 10"s to the front speakers.. It's all relative.. I'm not trying to tell you 'not' to do a fully matched system if you want, but please try to be helpful, especially when the poster asks to get away from the wandering points.. Sometimes people really want to know if there is an issue with doing something, and telling them 'it looks gay' doesn't help.. I'm sorry if I sounded dickish before.. just trying to get this guy some info .. ya know?
