audiofanaticz Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 It should sound warm. I just say go with the polks because if your not supplying enough wattage to keep up with the subs, you can always add more amps to your mids and tweets due to the higher rms rating. Where as if you go with something like the pg's if you put more power to them you may fry them rather easily, then have to buy new again.

wL<3bass Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 Hard to say, make sure you gains on your amp are done since they are only rated at 60rmsI know I put 250+ to each of my polk momo 5.25s and they took it for quite some time, I think the 5.25s have a smaller power rating then the 6.5s. And since when the fuck was 25 feet disturbing the peace? I can hear the wind from a car driving by at 25 feet. It should be like 300+ feet, then I can see someone getting upset. The RSD will take 150+wrms of clean power.

pstone11 Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 I'm sure the three sizes will sound fine together... as for the 6.5" pillars, those will be huge and ugly. I'm not saying that it can't be done or has not been done, but the 6.5's are too giant to be in the pillar.

pstone11 Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 mine were mixed 5.25 and 6.5 up front, no 6x9's though. They had plenty of sound to keep up with the 5k in the burban.

They had plenty of sound to keep up with the 5k in the burban. well right now i have 6.5's and 6x9's in each door, i already have the hole cut for the by 9's so i wanna use those again...they are only 2 way tho, i dont want over the top treb but im not worried about that cause i can just turn the gains on the amp down...just dont want it to sound like ass, guess we will have to do it a lil and see.. thanks every1 Quote My F-150 Build GET ON THE BANDWAGON what if they tried messing with the amps when the subs werent louder hahah jk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
