[QUOTE="AndyGiff, post: 8673909, member: 676893"] Hey guys, sorry been a little busy with my pops and his broken hip situation. I was able to bridge my amp and run the front with 200 watts at 4ohms, it helped a little but in all honesty I was still not real happy with them. I will admit a little more midbass came out and the real high points in voices etc got a lot better with less distortion, but of course they were getting almost three times the watts they normally get. So I think I have decided to replace them with a larger mid 6.5". I may need some help choosing what to go with as I am looking for good midbass and while I am at it, a warmer tweeter sound ( not tin sounding I guess you could say? less bright then the polks ). I was looking at some of the Focal products and others that were recommended in other threads. What do you think about these?
