I miss my C90 and 210 combo... ran a few Butler Tube Drivers (pre Phaze Audio - not the blue) with that setup. Loved it!

That sounds like a sweet setup, what speaker components were you running?

I had gone through a few setups... from User 8945 7" and 9950 tweet combo, Canton Pullman 3-way, MMATS components (i think they were made by MB Quart?) but the most transparent setup was definitely the AVI Tri-Star BSM. They were probably the best components I've used... and their passives were great too!

Cantons are awesome. Without a doubt the most overlooked speaker brand in car audio.

perhaps one of the best natural sounding 3-ways on a budget (I think I paid $200 used a long time ago?)

Anyway, great sounding but lacked a bit of depth for some reason. I also found them slightly fatiguing.

I do agree with Dukk, definitely overlooked as they're more affordable and much better sounding than many mainstream brands out there these days.

I deffinatley agree with that, its surprising how few people actually know about them.

Blame that on not having a decent distributor in Canada for a long time now.

Yeah thats so true, good thing when ever I have needed any replacement drivers for my home or car there distribution centre in the U.S. has been super easy to deal with.
