I Need 6.5 options to run active

[ricky_db]

Thanks for reading.

I need options on good 6.5 speakers to run in a active system.

I really liked the pound of the pioneer PRS 720 but thats alot of money to pay for a component set im not going to use all of.

i would like to put two, four, or eight 6.5s in each front door (either option would have 2 or 4 tweeters powered by the decks speaker outputs).

they will be powered by a sax 100.4

so i would have 160w x 4 @ 2ohms

100w x 4 @ 4ohms

or 320w x 2 @ 4ohms (bridged)

given that most 6.5s are 4ohms i could wire

four 6.5s together and make 4ohms giving them 25watts a speaker

eight 6.5s together and make 2 ohms 20 watts a speaker

two 6.5s per channel @ 2ohms for 80watts a speaker

or four 6.5s bridged to 4ohms for 80watts a speaker

I feel i need so many 6.5s because i have two 18" BTLS powered by a SAZ-3500 in a 15cft box tuned to 30hz in my Tahoe.

image dynamic 6.5's from woofersect.com are 109 a set and sound really nice. ctx i think. I have a set of the first ones that he linked and they are awesome.. 169 is a hell of a price too. but budget get the second set of ctx. can't go wrong with ID period though

thanks for the replies guys, i would like to keep all of what ever sets i get under 1 grand

any thoughts on the numbers of drivers?

[JCiarlino]

I'm pretty sure you don't need eight drivers, two per door would probably be fine, unless you're going for the wow factor of eight.

mainly wow factor since im counting on this tahoe to bring the clients to me.i just dont know if it would sound that good with the power broken down that far
