Mr DeeBeez Posted February 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 thank you for your input. I would definitely get an amp before i would get them then. How do you like them by the way? seem to have good reviews. never heard them tho. do you think (provided they had proper power) that one set of mezzos would be better than 2 sets of cz's?

jmorlan Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 I have 2 sets of mezzos and my amp is running 100 to them at 4ohm, I Can get 125w to them at 2ohm, is it OK to bridge them at the amp to make that happen? Will report back this weekend on their sound at 125w if possible. They sound ok at 100w, but definitely not what their potential is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, the Crescendo tweeter is the tits. So smooth, non fatiguing, plays loud and vocals sound great. You wont get the Mezzo tweeter with the CZs, so I'd lean toward a single set of Mezzos. Now, if tweeters aren't your thing and you want to get extra midbass up front,then go with 2 sets of CZs. But don't just settle for the HU power, they need amps.

moredbs Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 Unless you have passengers in the backseat a lot,i would only worry about the speakers up front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karkov Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 I would not run anything off the HU. The Mezzo's are better.

Mike Gibbens Matthew Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 I have mezzo's that I ran off of HU power for the first month I had them because of a DOA amp. I had already ripped out my door speakers and my kid demolished one on accident. They sounded amazing, and even though underpowered, they were a HUGE improvement over stock speakers, even on HU power. The tweet in the mezzo's is indeed the tits. The mid driver can play low and sound good doing it, BUT YOU HAVE TO DEADEN YOUR DOORS, properly. 07 KIA Spectra 320a Singer Alt Odyssey Extreme batteries 2 12" Phantom sounds (4.6 cu. net @ 32) - soon to be 2 Atomic ELE 2 Rockford Fosgate T2500bd-CP Zapco Z150.2 Front comps soon to be Hertz HSK Pioneer 80prs Second skin deadener throughout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
