[QUOTE="DidUHearThat?, post: 5708744, member: 594758"] This is what I was saying about using the wrong gear and setting it up wrong. No. It won't work, you won't like the way it sounds because it will sound awful, and you'll get frustrated and then spend more money to fix it. Eventually spending far more than just getting an entry level set up. Or like most people give up and never really get decent sound. You can't swap around componets and crossovers like silverwear. A fork from one set, a spoon from another and a knife from a third. It will sound like ***. Really. Trust us. We've been thru this before. Matching componets requires alot of engineering design and trial and error. Even the best speaker companies design their systems, then set up and listen to it. Then take it apart, redesign, change it and start all over and repeat till they get it to sound right. When they finally get a good "system" they package it and sell it. You benefit from thier trail and error by buying the set they've already done alot of development with. You might get lucky and have it sound okay, and you might win the lottery the first time you buy a ticket, but the odds aren't good. Everyone else's experience says it's not likely to happen. No. Do not use 4 tweeters. Do not swap around crossovers and drivers. Buy a complete factory set of $70-$150 6 1/2" component speakers and a budget amp to power them. If you can't afford that, buy decent 6 1/2" coaxials and a budget amp. Dont' build a frankenstein set off fleabay. [/QUOTE]
