So, I lent my baby sister my truck to tool around in for a couple of days while I was installing her system. And, she pops one of the Bahn plates. :rolleyes:
Time to upgrade.
Here's the gist of my truck's system. I am bi-amping the tweets and mids with a pair of MTX Blue Thunder PRO502's. In reality, each amp puts out twice its rated 25x2 for around 50x2 @12V. I'm using the Soundstream Exact 5.3 crossovers that I've already got which are bi-ampable (x-over point of 2500Hz).
So, I need a pair of tweets and a pair of mids. My budget is around $100 to $150 absolute tops. The components will be mounted in the doors in the factory locations (Ranger has same 6x8 opening).
Anybody got some suggestions? My first thoughts were some
Vifa 5" mids and some
1" Neodymium Tweeters. Anyone with some better components that will work well in my setup?
My goal is for accurate mid-range and non-harsh highs (I usually prefer soft materials like silk for tweets). Oh yeah, the bottom end is already taken care of with a separate sub amp and 10" sub (trying to get a BP1001 if their freakin' site will ever open!!!).
