midrange and tweeters selection ?
If going active, impedance does snot matter on the tweeter at all. If I was going 3-way I prefer an LPG tweeter over Seas Neo by far, and that Seas Neo would only be better when running between 3500hz/24db and up, but LPG does not like to play that low, and if you are going to run the tweeter at 5khz/24db or higher, this is the ultimate tweeter for the money and it is better off-axis than that Seas Neo. I really think this is the tweeter for you and there won't be any objections from anyone, I guarantee. So that means you got a midbass and a tweeter covered. Midrange search continues. Check what they have on sale at Solen, and dont worry about it being 8 ohm. Whats more important is because you are planning on running the midrange 150hz and up, you need to look at midrange speakers with fs spec of 75hz or less, or if you fing a speaker you like with whatever fs spec, you shoudl double that for and that shall be a good starting point for xover freq. There are some nice speakers at "on sale" section like CSS, Vifa, Peerless, etc. Fitting the sucker is another problem, so choose based on that as well. I also dont think it will be a problem for your midbass to play up to 300hz, so at this freq, you can find a midrange of fs spec around 150hz and that should not be a problem. And, I can tell you're prolly comparing sensitivity ratings too, so here is a tip, because 8 ohm and 4 ohm speakers are measured differently, you can take the sensitivity spec of 86hz for axample and you can add 3db for it to match the identical speaker only made instead with a 4 ohm rating, so your 8 ohm speaker is really 89hz. First link is for your future tweeter, but that Seas Neo is also very capable, but I prefer LPG for 3-ways, and you can choose between all those midranges currently on sale at Solen.

I was talk to the guy at solen a few times and, to go with the SLS 6.5" he suggested the "VIFA PL11WH0904" for midrange and the "SEAS Prestige 27TFFNC/CG" for tweeters. looks like a nice setup. does anybody see differently maybe? I already ordered the SLS 6.5" but it's not too late for the midrange and tweeters. 

I like this idea too with the midrange
but I would still choose that LPG tweet.Ok, you're done. Peerless SLS midbass, VIFA PL11WH0904, and LPG NA26 tweet(much better than Seas, and off-axis too), or Seas Neo 4-0hm tweet if you're really stuck on the 4-ohm thing.
