[QUOTE="SomeguyinPDX, post: 8071297, member: 636731"] Ok, got the amp installed along with the CDT Braxials I have also been playing with the aiming of the image tweeters. I finally think I found the sweet spot for the image tweets but I have to say I am a bit dissapointed with the cdt mids. When I say dissapointed I'm not saying that they are no good, they just were not better sounding than the silver flute mids. Now I have put the silver flutes back in with the braxial arms and tweets mounted to them. I did a little side by side test using the silver flute mid in place of the cdt mid, still using the crossover,braxial & image tweeter from CDT. The Silver flutes needed a little less power than the cdt mids and were much warmer sounding. Next to each other the difference was very noticeable and the silver flute can be crossed down to around 60hz for most music where the cdt would not tolerate anything below 80Hz from medium to high volumes. It currently sounds really good and gets fairly loud with the right track playing but as most of you may understand "It's not enough, I need more volume." At the moment my substage is hardly working, all my settings are turmed down in order to keep everything balanced. I am not sure what is the best option to get my midbass and midrange louder to keep up with the substage. Should I just double up and run 2 more mids or should I be looking at 8" mid/midbass to get louder? again any input is appreciated.
