Rainbow CMX 265 any good?

[Session25 10+ year member]

I'm looking at getting a pair of Rainbow CMX 265 comps for the front of my car. (6.5). I mainly listen to rap,but i also listen to alot of metal/rock. would these be good? Also, what amp would be best with these speakers? I don't really understand much about tweeters, so if someone could explain what they are, that would be great. If the tweeters arn't on the actual speaker, then where would they go? noob question...i know. lol. Thanks for the help.

Yep. And for $30 more, you can get the Kick version.

No, they're garbage. Send them to me, and I will properly dispose of them in a sanitary landfill. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

cool, what amp would you recommend with these speakers?

Give them anywhere from 180w rms to 250w rms and you will make them happy. Are you running a subwoofer to take over the lower frequencies? If so you may want to check out the Kick version.

Have you considered a single Type X in the recommended sealed enclosure size?
