ok w/e dude get the m6 and the drt 26 tweet and u will have amazing midbass and great highs and mids with that setup but you can get a comp setup from exige with the m6 and the 26tweet for a better price than woofer

no, the fact that you brought up $600 speakers in this thread........ //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

I'd say just deaden & seal the sh*t out of your doors to start.

If your still not satisfied...up the power.

Then if your still not happy...mid upgrade.

I'd hope to think hes refereeing to the OP's CL-61's

I have the CL61's on one of my cars and the midbass is kickin hard, not sure why yours are not producing plenty of midbass. I have the entry level ID CTX comps in my other car and those have excellent midbass as well.

If you want insane midbass maybe you can fit the M6plus mids in your doors otherwise the CXS line have crazy midbass as well.

up the power and u will have more midbass

Well, I'm currently running what is in my sig. I, like everyone else, want to improve my midbass. I am getting another 36sqft of damplifier pro to seal up the doors. I want to keep the price under $200 for a pair of 6.5" mids with 40rms @4 ohm or 50rms@2ohm. Honestly, the CDT set that i am running sounds pretty darn good to me compared to a few other sets around town. They get plenty loud for me with this power, but i would like to be able to drop my hpf to 63hz. I might can play around with the tuning a little more and get them to play, but i am looking to switch up the mid. Any suggestions?
Just from looking on wooferetc i like the ID CX62... should i look elsewhere?

Seal up and deaden the doors as well as possible, that's probably where you're lacking. Just because the output isn't what you hoped for doesn't mean the driver is at fault. You really need to take in the whole situation before you fault the speaker. Seal up your doors, make sure a proper baffle is used, even some closed cell foam the hinder road noise (that detracts from clarity as well). If you still aren't satisfied then consider a swap.

Also, don't expect out of this world midbass from a 6.5" driver that you not only want to play down to 63hz, but also up to 3k+ hz. Everything is a trade off in this game, I'd rather have a clean midrange than a bottom heavy mid that sucks above 1khz. Don't forget that you can also EQ in some of the lower octaves. A dedicated midbass never hurts either, though I'm sure you don't want to dive into something like that just yet.
