I hope to get one in my hands within 2 weeks so I can take a bunch of pictures. We'll see.
Somewhere around $200-$225 is what we're aiming for. They will be designed to last the life of the car, like my own sub boxes. I wouldn't endorse something I don't believe in.
Because I haven't yet found a sub with enough motor strength to do what this sub can. Tang Band drivers are very big in the home theater DIY arena. You get a much higher quality product for a cheaper price because you don't have the fancy name brand logo to go with it.
I was looking at Hertz too, a while back. They are super expensive and you can get better speakers for a better value.
I can make the baffles, but I really have to ask why you're using those speakers. For anything above $300, there is very little value in a 2-way passive component set compared to a miniDSP setup using the Silver Flutes and Vifa tweeters as a starting point. From there, you can upgrade the tweeters as your budget allows. $275 is what you'd be looking for to go full active and have 36 parametric EQ bands, time alignment, and custom crossover points just so start off. The Silver Flute/Vifa tweeter combo that I've posted here before will destroy anything below $600 retail as a passive set, and I can send you the tune file so it takes all of the tuning and guesswork out of getting everything set up.
What are you referring to?
Hey im open to any suggestions..... Only reason I was gonna get those was because I had them before and really liked them! Ok so my question is can I purchase everything you are suggesting through you? If so how much for everything? If not can you link me to your suggestions, and also thanks for all your help!
See the links for the miniDSP, tweeters, and midbass drivers in the Active section:
Yes, they have good midbass. Great midbass in fact, but door speakers won't replace a subwoofer, I can guarantee you that much. You'll be able to push these pretty far though with the high pass filter on the miniDSP. Farther than you'd be able to push the Hertz comps.
