[QUOTE="boomgoesthedynamite, post: 8671121, member: 676323"] I had already spent a fair amount of time looking over the loose drivers on Parts-Express. The 3" stuff really is too big to fit the location. There aren't a ton of 88db+ options in the 2" stuff. Most of it hovers closer to 80-83. The Unity U2 is rated at 87db with 50 watts RMS. I struggle to see how that wouldn't be as loud as the 88db 20w options on parts express. I'm leaning towards just ordering the U2 and U69V2 (2ohm if I can find it). My amp will put out 140 at 2 ohm. That would give a little more headroom for the Amp. That PRV 6x9 is only good down to 500hz. It would be crushingly loud at 97db sensitivity and 250watts but I want stuff between my sub and dash speakers to be down there like 100-300 or something like that. 500 is way too high I would think. I ordered an AudioControl DM-608. The Fix is nice but lacks a lot of tuning features without getting the twk. The DM-608 also has eq profiles which is cool. I can set custom curves for Top up and for Top down. I think I'll go broke but I plan to drive this car for 8 + years so might as well get it right now. [/QUOTE]
