[QUOTE="DejaWiz, post: 2088374, member: 569941"] I'd say flip a coin between the Kicker KS's and MBQ DSF's. Either should better provide what I've read a lot of complains on the Kama's - low end midbass. Your call, ultimately. Best bet would be to visit some shops and audition some sets. You might stumble across a Pioneer or an MTX set and fall in love, afterall. Next step would be to contact Kicker product support and make sure the SSMB6's will fit in the rear openings of your Civic without modifying anything (they are 6.75 vs 6.5). I would try and persuade you further to consider ditching the rears and go with a sub over all other options, as no midbass will produce the bottom end thump and punch like a sub will. The 8" Solo is a great compromise between SPL and SQL and would work sweet with a variety of music. I have one of these myself and I personally know people that work at some of the local shops aroound here that have 1 or 2 of them for both SPL and SQL systems. These little bastards never cease to amaze me, and I've yet to hear a bad sounding setup with them. You can always add rear speakers and a separate sub amp later if you still feel you need more afterwards. If the vented box ends up being something you don't like or is too big, then you can transfer that sub into a custom smaller and rather inexpensive sealed box. I'm not telling you what to do, please don't misinterpret my intent....I'm just trying to help you get started with a well-rounded system that will be the most versatile, capable, and pleasing for a low initial investment.
