  1. Looking to get some better front stage going...

    in Mid's and highs

    Posted

    My badd... Thought I put the budget in.... I was looking to do around $200 .... $300 would be a breaking the bank type budget right now... I saw the CTX were at $160 now... I also saw that Image Dynamics website is stating the company will be no longer... which might be the reason why..

    I was suggested the Image Dynamics CSX series over at SSA but haven't been given a solid reason as to why I should spend the extra and do the $315 dollar set....

    Thank you to all who have posted thus far..

    I want to start kinda fresh.... I don't think I'll want to put in the effort for an active setup... At least not now anyway...

    What I do want to do is possibly make a "homemade" passive set... Possibly using pre-made xovers and some nice drivers..... Would maybe using the Selenium or maybe the Peerless 830657 in conjunction with that O2 driver on a 2-way passive xover be any good??? Just trying to see if I can be somewhat creative in that manner instead of just buying a made set first....

    Thanks for the replies so far though.

    Just to show more detail:

    Alright... so currently I have a shitty front stage since I was not looking to go "crazy" with the audio... that plan did not stay.. I went from some old school JL audio 10" w3's to a Pioneer Premiere 12" and then to a 12" SSA Icon and now I currently have a 15" SSA Xcon sealed enclosure... so far I loved the sound... My front stage consisted of just Alpine 6x9 for a while and then I added some Polk Audio tweets in the dash... Not having alot of options on the EQ side I think I damaged a tweet which is whatever I don't care... I didn't have the right amps to do this setup and that is probably how I did that.. I was using a BA GT2-125 and no separate xover so I know the tweets were going too low..

    So this is the setup currently...:

    1" Polk Audio tweets

    6x9" Alpine

    Boston Acoustics GT2-125

    I want to keep that amp and either do a passive/pre-configured component set, like the Polk Audio MM6501 or maybe try out some other drivers ...

    One thing I was looking at were these Oxygen Audio drivers ... xover on the amp to about 100hz and call it a day... Should I do this????

    Then I came across this xover .. which I know might be home oriented but I think could work ... If I did this what could I add as a tweeter???

    Any help or suggestions would be great....
