[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8920801, member: 689267"] If you want to dig down a bit lower than the DS18 midRANGE (not a midbass driver) pro style drivers, AND still have high efficiency with sound quality too, look at Steven's audio MB6s, MB8s. whichever will fit. You can actually have good-sounding LAF, it's possible, but mount your tweeters up on the door or in a dash or pillar, on either withot without a pod, tweeters **** when mounted low like that in the doors. Here are the PODs: If your "A" pillars already have the tweeter setup, use them, or- [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.ebay.com/itm/366194242469?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&customid=link&campid=5335951755&toolid=20001&mkevt=1[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.down4soundshop.com/down4sound-single-8-speaker-pods-for-the-front-door-of-a-21-24-ford-f-150-ford-f-250-f-350/?srsltid=AfmBOoqhEBVVW-FhHaXZ_gsUbR1EtPr9mqdNtNmrqzl5KOmD7Xb6yhERnPw[/URL] Get a pair (1 on each door) of the 2-ohm version of these 8" 450-watt RMS drivers; they will walk all over a set of the DS18's, and they are on sale for $98.00 each. [URL unfurl="true"]https://stevens.audio/blank/ols/products/mb8[/URL] To those, mount a set of these up in the door, or in the "A" pillars, they are a 150 watt RMS silk dome with a low fs of 640hz, chambered back high power handling tweeter that actually sounds good while getting very loud too. $99.00 a pair: [URL unfurl="true"]https://stevens.audio/blank/ols/products/sa1[/URL] If you prefer, I have 2 pairs of these, 2 pairs, 1 pair, for 125.00, 2 pairs for $225.00, shipped to the lower 48: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.xcelsus.com.au/product/car-audio/primum-series/xplt28w/[/URL] That 8" or 6" comes in 2 or 4 ohm impedances, I'd go 2 in this instance. Assume you get the 2-ohm 8" Stevens, you have a driver that has a thermal RMS limit of 450 watts! That allows you to get a decent 4-channel amp in the 150 to 200 x 4 watts RMS, or get the 4-ohm stevens and a 6-ch ampl bridge for and still have 2 left for the tweeters. [/QUOTE]
