[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8872774, member: 689267"] Well, that depends. I'm a fan of the Stevens product. I would personally opt for their SA6CS or SA6CS-A to get those midbass drivers down to around 65-70 (where a sub picks up the duty) as they will play lower than the 8" inch semi pro-style midbass drivers, just a different design, for different applications. Since you have a great set of tweeters, AND have purchased the 8's then yes that is all you need for great sound for the 100 hz to 20k+ frequencies for sure. Most 3-way setups are better, for staging but can be more persnickety to tune if the driver location isn;t just right (tru for 2-ways too). You mentioned having multiple mids and tweeters all around, not usually a sound quality setup. Do you want the truck to be loud like you're in a outdoor concert with all if it's trappings (and limitations frequency wise) or loud like a concert through a set of headphones - therein lies the difference. Hard do to both. It's important to qualify that part of the equation. [LEFT]In your situation, you'll now need subs that will pick up the slack from that 20-30hz low end all they way up to around at least 100hz given the range of the Stevens drivers you have. That's not a critique, just an observation with an eye on the outcome, full-range as well as loud sound.
