[QUOTE="bobdole369, post: 4758497, member: 586780"] I've had the Pioneer REV TS-161Rs (6 3/4" coaxial "component" ) - it has a driver mounted crossover. Very unimpressed with that setup. I am installing Boston Acoustics SX65 and will report - but I'm not sure I'll like them either - I picked em up discounted quite deeply as it didn't include the hardware (only screws). My Pioneers failed due to water intrusion [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG] and I'm taking steps to ensure it doesn't happen again. My impression from the internets is that the BA is a bit lacking in bass - but is beautiful when it comes to highs. Unfortunately I already have that covered - the speaker is to be mounted very low on the door (pt cruiser) - so its not that likely I'll even hear the highs these guys put out. I've heard the same about Inifinity Kappas, in fact the whole Infinity lineup is said to be harsh. Were it not for my own impatience and requirement to get something locally I might have been inclined to see about some Rainbow stuff myself: [URL="http://www.caraudiomag.com/reviews/cae_0709_rainbow_cs_germanium/index.html"]http://www.caraudiomag.com/reviews/cae_0709_rainbow_cs_germanium/index.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
