Does anyone in here happen to know the mounting depth requirement of these mids?

x2.

anyone? I don't get this. Usually mounting depth is a commonly listed spec. Why is so difficult to get that number for these speakers?

my manual says 73mm so 2.87" if my conversion is right. there are 25.4mm in an inch if i remember right. i think i listed this somewhere else in this thread... if not i wrote it in a different thread.

I was looking at the alpine x type and the boston pro 60s, but for the price and performance these caught my eye. How would they compare to the other two sets? And my arc amp is rated at 180 per channel, can these handle 150+, I think they would be ok with the gains set real low.

Where can I get a set of these comps? I would love to try them in my Civic.

i have not heard the x's or the boston's so i can't comment on them.

set the gains with a -3db 1khz tone to 150 watts with a DMM and be easy with the volume knob(just don't go past where you set the gains) and you'll be perfectly fine.

not sure if they include a short warranty or not. you shouldn't have any trouble though. i wasn't worried about it.

I just put these into Qlogic qforms in my '98 Dakota. These speakers sing beautifully at the >80hz hpf. Lots of kick on the drum and sweet highs..can't say enough!

Love 'em for the money..also a great amp for cheap is the Cadence TXA- Series ( I have the 1502 but feel 3002 is better suited if you have the space).

nice, for the price they better be a slight upgrade.

on a side note, i STILL can't get over how much i love the RSD's. i just picked up a cd from a band called Dream Theater called Awake. i had it SO loud and they still sounded perfect. i still think they handle power very well. i do not plan to change these out anytime soon.

^from your sig, you're running only a front stage? how much watts pushing the rsd's?

i know your cars a coupe and mines a sedan, but i'm considering disconneting my rear fill, trading my 300/4 for a 300/2 to power the hertz.

Edead vise 1?
