Rockford Fosgate or Crescendo?


BigManAC

Recommended Posts

I don't want this is be a big vs thread I'm only asking what people think that have tried either or both speakers and the sq of them. I drive a 01 Saturn L200 and I'm looking to get better mids/highs. I'm trying to decide btwn the RF T2652-S or the Crescendo PWX 6.5 and FT1 tweeters. I plan on using an MB Quart 1000.4 bc I will also have a RF P2D2-8 in each door as well. Is there a better sq coming from one or the other or are they pretty much equal?

To be honest It will probably get closed. But the Crescendo PW6 are pro audio speakers. From what I have heard ( I have not experience with pro audio ), is that they are not for SQ but for loudness. I would say go with the Rockford's

I dont know about the T2, but I have the two pairs of the T3's and love them. There very musical. I don't have experience with the Cresendo, but from everybody's feedback there awesome speaker's. Either way you sway, you wont be disappointed.

2 completely different set ups. One is a pro audio driver and super tweet. You will need to run active. If you don't know about it then x those off your list. Fosgates are a passive set with a supplied crossover. I run the T2's. there a nice sounding component set.

I'll be running active off of a DEH-80PRS either way I go. I was leaning towards the RF's but then someone told me that Crescendo makes good mids.

down rpping vanderbilt. 30 miles from victoria. i own the 3rd loudest setup here out of 3. but i did put together all 3 setups

strapping 2 amps together ? like bolting them next together? using bungy cables to hold them down? or wiring separate amps to each sub

If your planning to run active then you prob shouldn't do the fosgates. Don't make much sense to me to buy a component set and completely throw out their optimized crossover in hopes you can do a better job. Might as well buy raw speakers
