I'm still amazed at how many people bypass the cxs or xs speakers for anything HAT, Focal, etc for 3x the price. On about 3 different occasions I've seen someone say they closely compare the cxs/xs to the L6. Never heard the L6's, but they seem to get high praises, which is a good thing for us! lol

I ask you bc you seem to have a good knowledge of just about everything out there in terms of car audio (maybe more?).
Purely hypothetical.

Eggy, if I was your master (a good one) and asked you to piece me something beautiful for the TL and gave you $200 to do it, what would you bring me? (better be car speakers)

Fs is 120hz, yep, it's a midrange. I'm very surprised myself that some are comparing them to a midbass. With a pro audio driver I wouldn't go any less than a 10" if you want ok midbass output.

Just looked at those. Looks like one is a high efficiency high power large midrange that should get stupid loud but only has 2mm xmax. Proabably great from 200hz and up. Now I see what you said apples and oranges. One is a pro audio style midrange, the other a midbass.

Whats the difference in a pro audio speaker vs. your basic car audio style? I know that's really general..but..

The 6nd430 has an FS of 61hz and 22mm xmax (p2p). Guy said he's running it 80/12db (he had the xs's at 100/12db for some reason). Am I missing something? Serious question as I still don't understand much about specs

It's a trade off depending on what u wanna do.
The 10 in my door is 97db @ 1w so i can cross @ 80 and still get gobs and gobs of midbass. I can cross lower too since i have so much efficiency and power to burn.
A lot of people use them in SPL systems since they get very loud with minimal power.
Same goes for HCLD's. Those things will tear your head off with 3 watts.
One of the best sounding cars in the world (richard clark's GN) ran pro audio mids and horns.

Update:
I suppose I can officially conclude that the title to this thread is a fail. Last week I upgraded my wiring from 4 gauge to 1/0. It was surprising to me how much larger the 1/0 is compared to the 4 gauge. Here they are side-by-side:
I currently have the 1/0 going into a distribution block with two 4-gauge runs and one 8 gauge run to my amps.
I decided to upgrade my wiring because I'm replacing my Sony (200x2 @ 4ohms) with a Zapco DC 1000.4, which just arrived today.
I haven't decided for sure, but for now I plan to run the 1000.4 bridged to my components @500 watts per channel.

Picked up a Zapco DC 1100.1 and sold the Alpine PXE and PPI 1300.1. I have to say that having a powerful EQ for your subs can make a huge difference.
The tune is improving:
I still have some things left in my for sale thread in the black market if anyone is interested: Rockford BLD, Rockford Punch PBR, Sony 2-Channel
