WTB NICE 3.5" speakers or if you could point me in a good direction

[KyleBechtold 5,000+ posts]

Looking to buy some nice/higher end 3 1/2" speakers for my dash.. I have a pretty big truck and will be running a loud sub stage with a front stage only no rear.. So I want some nice 3 1/2s to be on the dash so when I crank it I can turn them on to be able to keep up..

price isn't really an issue but just to have one under $200 would be best..

these need to get loud but sound good doing it.. I was looking at full ranges such as Dayton ND90-8 3-1/2

If you don't have any but know of a good 3 1/2 let me know.. I have never looked at 3 1/2s but with my car project I didn't want to cut the doors so I had speakers on the rear deck in a fiberglass enclosure and while they got loud it sounded dumb with speakers screaming at the back of my head..

except for tweeters most 3.5's mids can't handle over 50w rms...

Yeah I was going to suggest those Daytons. I have 6 Dayton 6.5in mids and 6 Dayton tweeters in my durangos front doors and I am VERY pleased with how they sound. Best bang for buck purchase Ive ever made.

understood but I have heard some can still get loud? efficient ones.. never heard em myself though.. Was looking at tweeters aswell but like a little more spectrum than that unless it boils down to it..

not looking strictly bang for buck.. they need to get loud.. I watched a couple vids but can't tell as most are people putting em in weird boxes and it just being them with nothing to relate them to

I may have to give those a try.. Do you remember how much power you were feeding em? all I can find is the MAX numbers.. I was planning on either h/u power or hooking up my OS rockford 50.2 and add-on Xover

I saw that.. Are you sure that is a pair.. I was concerned on that..
