6 1/2 Mid woofers?

Thanx Chris,  That is what I thought after reading about the 6wo's.   I just wanna throw em in the rear pillars, don't know the CF back there, but it is basically an enclosure already.  How bad will they sound if the volume is off either way??

That's odd.  I used to run a set of a/d/s/ 6.5" components and my only complaint was the lack of midbass they had.  They got plenty loud for me though, even on the freeway with the windows down.

sedate: my 96 escourt has 6.5" 2-ways and they curve in at 90 dB at 70 Hz.  theyre not bad little things.

Steven Kephart & Thorin_II: "That's odd. I used to run a set of a/d/s/ 6.5" components and my only complaint was the lack of midbass they had." I've often found comparing mid-bass output from the same mid-range speaker (or coaxial) in different cars often has more to do with the car they are installed in than the speaker... how well of a natural enclosure they are installed in, how damped the door is, how careful the installer is to ensure that airtight seal around the gasket.. etc. etc. Maybe this is the case here? When I say "hella midbass" what I should say is, tonally, the midbass seemed as pronouced as the rest of the sound... not usually a distinction I give to car speakers. "They got plenty loud for me though, even on the freeway with the windows down" When I say these speakers were *clean* I mean it. Some of the most articulate speakers I've heard.. but the part I like about your post is exactly what blew my mind about these A/D/S's... you literally could NOT hear them on the freeway with the windows down! This is a componet set that set my friend back like $500 getting an entire 4-channel dedicated to them and the best they can do is play well at a stoplight?! My friend always insisted that he loved 'em.. but he's also the kind of person that wouldn't admit otherwise after $500.. That is kinda how I describe my 13W6 to ppl... "I've been ADSed..."
