[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8715675, member: 650438"] raw drivers are individual drivers you can buy that you can pair up with anything you want picking the best tool for the job vs a premade set that either works with your car acoustics or does not, its like playing the lottery with component sets, either you like the sound or it sounds like **** in your car but sounds good in another person's car... thats acoustics for you. You are literally at the mercy of a luck draw when relying on component speakers with a passive crossover. You need to step up your game and do active networks if you want any real results. also... Whatever sensitivity specs are on the component is derived from the loudest driver so with your focals, its 92.6 which is pretty good on paper BUT thats the tweeter sensitivity, the mid sensitivity is still around 89 to 90. Same story with your other components. You want to get a dedicated midrange that can play loud and a dedicated midbass that plays deep pair that with a tweeter and an 8 channel DSP and a good tune will get you the results you want. If that focal has decent midbass, i'd use that as a dedicated midbass and buy a beyma or prv neo or crescendo un 6.5 as some dedicated midrange in your kick panels, toss away the passive crossover, add a dayton dsp and get another 2 channels of amplification and you are set for a really nice 3 way active front that'll sound good and get loud as balls. btw if you dont like the jbl tweets, the focal tweets will rip through your ears on the passive crossover. They are much stronger than the JBLs and you definitely need a DSP to control that **** especially when most focal mids are crossed around 5khz which has a lot of overlap in frequencies which causes nasty sibilance aka the ssss and shhhh sounds that rip your ear drums..
