[QUOTE="gatorgrizz27, post: 1793196, member: 565956"] He's just saying that if you are using the 8w7's for midbass, why not just run midbass drivers like IDQ8's or XXX 8's? If your 12w7 is low passed at around 70Hz, then high pass the midbasses at around 60Hz or so, then low pass them where they blend with your mids. Of course then you wouldn't want your midbasses behind you, they would be better off in the kicks or doors. The point is midbass drivers will be better suited to playing midbass than small subwoofers will. Look at concert speakers, the tweeters are larger than most car mids and the mids are larger than most car subs, but they still play the same frequencies. Larger cone= more output, thats all. For example, look at this Orion subwoofer, its a 15, but its frequency response is 30Hz-2.5kHz. Then here is a Boston thats a 10, but its frequency response is 24Hz-350Hz.
