Need opinions from the SQ bisches.....

Dude, for the amount of money and effort you have put into this, you could have just bought a single component set and had it installed correctly in the first place. Don't bother with 3 way dual midbass setups; you just end up spending more on the speakers and more on the amps and after all that you're screwed because you don't have the processing to T/A and EQ all of those speakers independently - which you need to, if you do anything like you took a picture of. If you want crazy midbass... You're talking about 300$ just for the speakers you linked above, plus amping those channels, plus your existing tweeters, amps...
Just go buy a set of rainbow power line cs or vanadiums, or a set of comparable quality, and be done with it. T/A the tweets and woofers and get them installed properly, and you will have gobs of midbass and good SQ for a flat price and 4 channels of amping. If you are looking for an SQ install, 'trying to avoid re-doing anything' is not going to serve your purposes; it'll simply result in a hacked together installation that leaves much to be desired.

Yes I do have some money tied up into this stuff, but at this point its worth every penny. Im always changing stuff around and trying new things so its pretty common with me.

This is how Im looking at it though. I mean, originally it was just going to be basic 3-way active, and a learning experience at that. Now, I will still have all the same control over the tweets and the mid-range/mid-bass, since Im basically just dropping the sub out of the picture as far as my processing is concerned.

Ill have the same control over the mid-bass as the tweets and the mid-range.....other than high-passing them, and I also loose my low-pass for my sub. Both of those can be handled at the amps though.

I think I have suitable processing to at least half-*** a 4-way setup.

No no no......Im sorry but thats just not gonna fly for me. Never in this thread did I say this is supposed to be some crazy 'SQ' install that is supposed to create world peace....

I really appreciate everyone's input though, it has helped me out immensely. I think I will be happy with what Im going to try and do, but who knows. If I am happy it will only be for a short time anyways and Ill be ripping it all out before I know it and doing something different....its the name of the game for me.....I like to build, listen, and destroy...

Give it some time and Im sure you will see me on here posting up something new Ill try.
