[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8870414, member: 591582"] My favorite components I personally had were Rainbow components, German made iirc. Been a while, don't quote me on that. IMO, SQ is more dependent on tuning/equalizing, speaker locations, dealing with possible unwanted vehicle or door resonances, possible door enclosures, once you get to a certain level of $ in equipment. Like, no matter how much you spend, you still have to tune it and deal with speaker locations and angles and all of that. I would prefer, just overall, a 3 way system with a dedicated midbass driver. If you have rear door speakers, you can put the midbass in the rear doors, rear deck, etc., possibly. True SQ would be exactly reproducing the waveforms of the music or sounds at the volume they were recorded at, but that's not really how music works for most. With subs and the amount of bass I like, I like having a dedicated midbass driver to better close the loudness gap between the bass and the midrange, which would far exceed what just a set of standardized tweeters and midranges could do. How loud your "SQ" needs to be might greatly change the setup. [/QUOTE]
