Which 3-way component is better or sounds better, the Morel ELATE 6 3W Component System or the CDT ES-642i GOLD?

Yeah, I was sorta leaning towards Morel.

Have you heard the CDT system? The only thing that kinda get's me about CDT, is that it looks a little generic. So it's hard for me to get past that. But of course it's highly regarded.

I have heard the CDT product and it did sound good to my ears. And even though the Morel product isnt perfect, I still prefer it over CDT 90% of the time. This is coming strictly for an SQ point of view and just my opinion. I generally dont listen to anything at serious volume levels, so CDT may be better if you looking for high output (I dont really know). I will agree and disagree with what Dukk said. 3 way is much harder to set up in a car. But under in right car with the right installer, I think you can achieve as good or better SQ with 3 way. There are simply more variables to consider.

Good luck with you car.

So a 2 way system is just a suffice in SQ? And as far as the "range" factor, it can cover it just as well as a 3 way?

How r the FOCAL amps as compared to the other power-houses(MTX,Sundown,ARC,etc.)? I'm looking for a good mono amp to power a SI MAG D2 12".
