What part # is that? I looked on CDTs site and didnt see an 8... this would be cheaper than the Dyn setup I found and I have 5s and 6s in the HD line, so my rear fill would match perfect this way... :hurr: NewOldStock, I just talked to CDT, and he divuldged that they are releasing an 8" HD lin...

So your stock stereo has an 8" and a tweet? Interesting... 8" comp sets are quite rare. Are you looking to replace it with a full comp set and amps, or are you just looking for drop in speakers that sound a bit nicer? For a good drop in replacement, look no further than these: http://www....

Dynaudio makes some 8" speakers that are exactly what I was looking for... going to go with those since I used to sell Dyn and LOVE the way they sound on all types of music.

Thanks guys for the suggestions! :clap:

Who makes a musical 8 inch driver for music?

My Corvette has some fat 8" front speakers and I love the mid bass they produce... I dont think they are that great, so using them in my system isn't really a thought, but does Focal, Dyn, CDT, or someone of the sort make a great 7-8" driver that produces a ton of mid bass without giving u...

All a chip inside them might do would be increase the bias current so they stay in Class A mode longer before entering Class B mode. But this is not all that impressive of a feature, and it still means they are not true Class A amps. I have only heard of two actual Class A amps built for car audio ...

The VRX are not Class A. Their voltage gain stage is likely Class A, but so is nearly any other average or above amp on the market. If they were really full Class A, they would have very tiny watt ratings (25W is a lot), and they would require 0ga for each amp installed. they have a chip that insta...

Im a huge fan of the MS and VRX amps... imo, the VRX is one of the best sounding amps made today... Comparing the two, they sound very similar, but the VRX with the class A chips in them is on another level, as it should be with pure class A architecture... If I buy any NEW amps for my Porsch to rep...

In that car, don't bother with rear fill at all. It will only cause harm to a proper stereo image. Rear fill is pointless unless you have a large sedan/SUV and frequent rear seat passengers. I think one of your offroads would be a perfect fit to power the front stage and the sub, however the "...
