thats usually because the x-over is designed for that midrange and tweeter. using a different driver with different specs than the one the crossover is designed for will yield 'funny' results.

most likely using different x-over points and slopes thatthe drivers aren't designed for, or dont preform their best at.

The Alpine Type - R sets are quite nice.
or even the lower end Type - X. The crossover that comes with the X's is beautifuly made.

Infinity perfect 6.1, Alpine spx-177r, Jbl p650c, and many others that you will have to audition to determine for yourself if you like them. The ones listed are pretty mainstream, but very good and all should be in your price range.

How's about we keep Canadian dollars in Canada. Support the Canadian dealers who support you on these forums.

No offence hank, but your post makes you look like a spammer for the link you provided.

Bryan, consider this. If the speakers you heard were distorting, then it is not a speaker issue at all. A speaker just all of a sudden does not start to distort, something must cause it. So, if the person had a really crappily set up system, even the best of speakers would have distorted. To me that reeks of too small an amp, incorrect gain setting, incorrect crossover point on the amp and a clipped signal coming out of the amp. In short, feed a good speaker crap, crap is what you will hear.

As far as I have seen you have not mentioned what amp you will be using for this and how much power you will be feeding them.

Also, how much depth do you have to work with to fit the midrange in?

They back door the system, stabbing every legit retailer in the back and sell without factory warrantee… this is the biggest ethical and legal problem in car audio today.
