[QUOTE="T3mpest, post: 6829077, member: 560148"] hmm. Horns sound very good if you have an EQ to help tame them some. I'm using a set of B&C de500's mated to a set of ID horn bodies (this is the cd-2 neo ID sells, dont' let them fool you lol). That and a high effeciency midbass to keep up would be a great setup for any type of music. I find my car sounds very good on club music since it tends to be heavy on the midbass. Rock also sounds good for this reason, but honestly, everything is nice usually lol. The only things that tend to sound bad is poorly recorded music, mostly rap and some some pop and rock, depends on the artist. Anyway a high effeciency setup can get alot louder than any regular car audio style speaker, which helps take away some of the upgradeitis. What size mids are you looking to run? 6.5's, 8's? Honestly my current front stage while not perfect is at the level of not needing an upgrade for 99.9% of the population. My mids are XS69's (image dynamics). I've never had anyone set in my car after a demo and not be very impressed, even people who are into audio. You simply can't match the overall clarity and realism of high effeciency speakers with a 86db/1w/1m speaker, I don't care if focal makes it and it costs 4k, you just can't... [/QUOTE]
