lol. don't worry. the people at diyma are awesome people. most friendly people you'll ever meet and if you have a specific question they will be glad to help. places like diyma don't flame people for being a "noob."

yah... I gave excelerator a free set with the MR62 comps I sent him so he wouldn't break up the braxial if he decided to run them seperately... he might be willing to part with his set as well...

ok guys, i have a couple different tweeters in mind now after reading some reviews.

Usher 9550c

LPG (silk version)

Seas 27tbc/g

what do you guys think? i don't have any mids in mind yet. just goin for tweets first then choose mids based on the lowest xover of the tweet.

well that usher has a max of 15 watts and only 88db sensitivity

so i wouldnt use that one.

and i dont know much about the other 2.

i've heard from ppl that the usher can actually handle more than 15w but can get pretty loud with little power. like i said tho, i've heard great things about all of them.

*edit* just bought some re re mids off of mr Tibbs. need a tweeter to go with thesse. last piece of the puzzle for now!! someone give me some input on my 3 choices above!!!

i have the LPG 25nfa if you didn't already i love them //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif. My quick review for you about the lpg's. don't let the silk dome fool you, these things are as detailed as they come. great top end extension. but at the same time plays really smoothe. position of this is important (but this is the case for all speakers anyways) because i had them in my stock location and wow they were sibiliant. But then i changed it to position of the tweeters closer to me on the dash and man made a huge difference. it definately broadened (sp?) my soundstage but also more importantly got rid of the sibliance. click on my sig to see my first install of the tweets and then later on into page 3 i show pics of where i changed it to. hell of a difference.
