    JL clean sweep?...send it back

    If you're THAT much into quality...look into the JBL MS-8 and Audison BitOne.1

    Speakers...hrmmm. Sound = 10% purchase and 90% install. If you're really worried about the quality of your speakers you'll end up learning how to understand the t/s parameters so you can install them correctly. If you're THAT into it I'd probably tell you to purchase some seas, peerless, dayton, or some other raw speaker driver. People seem to have lots to say about Usher these days too. Anyways, you get back much more for your dollar bill that way. Most "SQ" installs don't use passive cross overs either. Each speaker location can easily determine a different/better cross over point to utilize with the surrounding environment. Then your next question is, can your speakers handle those requirements? Sometimes you have to hear the speaker to determine whether or not you like it too.

    I would recommend this...

    JBL MS-8 (cheesey intro) -- should make tuning easy for you.
    http://ms8.jbl.com/

    a/d/s/ 346is component set from ebay. ~$250
    The only reason I recommend these is because it's easier for me to tell you how to install Matt will disagree entirely However, I've been able to achieve a nice centered stage with minimal install effort. Remember, the more you put into your install the easier it is for speakers to reach their potential. If you're not familiar with a/d/s/...they owned Orion and PPI. Their px/a series was kind of nice but probably broke their back Their parent company was braun.

    TC Sounds 12" LMS-R -- subwoofers.
    I recommend these just because they look like they're kind of bad ass and I want somebody to test them Matt approves of some variation of these...

    Wow the JBL MS-8 is deffinatly better, and the LCD 31-band EQ makes it very tempting. Hopefully can find it for less than $800 though. I'm not looking to replace my Diamond Audio MachDaddy's. They might not be the best anymore, but they have been hitting for me years. Plus they are already in a great box and wired for 2-Ohm load on the Orion 275G4.

    I'd like to use stock speaker location (2005 GTP) 1 6.5 inch and 1 tweeter in each front door, and 2 6.5 inch in the back dash. So what your saying is location isn't so imporant if i have each speaker at a different/better cross over point? The front door speakers are on the same horrizon about a foot apart.

    Thanks for all the help too btw.
