[QUOTE="[DT], post: 6681411, member: 619037"] I'm in the same situation. Looking for a 6.5" component set. I'll be running them passive from two channels off a Sundown 100.4D (bridging the other two for a sub). I want tight mids, and clear but "gentle" tweets. Good crossovers (any kind of adjustability would be a plus - I've seen some let you dial the tweet power up/down). Originally I was a little concerned about mounting depth, but I think that's the last on my want list now. I was thinking something in the $200-250 range would be perfect. I've been considering these: Hertz HSK 165 DLS R6A or RS6 CDT CL (62 series?) I recently read a couple of reviews of the CDT that sort of turned me off, the tweets sounded a little harsh. Mine are going in a convertible, and I've noticed some of the mid/high gets beat down by wind noise, so you wind up getting a bit of piercing high range already. The DLS have great reviews, shallow mount, reasonable price ( $199-229). The Hertz also get great reviews and I found a couple of sets on Fleabay, but then I read there's all sorts of fakes out there[?] I hadn't even heard of these (I'm totally out of loop with car audio [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] ) but they sound really interesting and are a great price. Hope I didn't barge in to your thread - I was going to start my own but there's already like a half dozen about components. [/QUOTE]
