opinion plz

Ok.... Port St Lucie sux. I can't find any audio shops that carry anything good..... bah.

Has anyone heard The Rainbow Sound Line SLC 265.02's or the Audio Development
AD 60(or 50) 2way's? I just want speakers with a smooth sound, somewhat warm sounding is
ok and I want to have fairly good midbass response (my friend has an all JL system with a 12w7
and the system has lotta trebble, lotta bass, NO midbass.... annoys the hell outta me [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]). Anyhow,
yeah I can't find either of those component sets to listen to em and I can't find anyone who's heard
em either, heh. I just want opinions if you've heard em.

Also I was thinking of setting up my system with oneof those 2 component sets, some 6.5 CDT
eurosport midbass's in the back and brahma in the trunk.... I'm going for SQ with some thump
too.... think that setup would be good(I'd hate to sit in the backseat tho [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG])?

Also...... does anyone know of any good audio shops in the Vero to Palm Beach area?

I'll be honest I haven't heard any of those speakers that you mentioned but I have Alpine Type X speakers in my doors and they sound really good. They have good mid bass and good highs alot of people dont think of Alpine as a good speaker company but trust me they rock. Alpine has done with their 2002-2003 speaker line up maybe you should give those a thought. My $0.02

those eurosports are real nice, you could get some focal polykevlars and aim them a bit off axis

dd's != midbass, DD's = MID-****ing-BASS

ddw6's, 6.5 inch midwoofer, can easily take 100 rms freeair, and 250 rms sealed in .3 cubes each, give you all teh midbass you could possibly want, down to 50 Hz or so with 100 rms.

I know 10" subwoofers that dont play that low [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

and with teh ability to play up to 3000 Hz, with crystal clarity, you have the workings of a rather fantastic component set, that will give you all teh thump you could possibly possibly possibly want..........

Ok for right now I just wanna get a 4 channel amp and components for the front.
I'm only looking to spend about $600 give or take $100 for both. I have no job right
now so the rest will come later [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG] The reason I'm interested in those AD's is cuz they
are supposed to hit 50hz and are specifically designed to be placed in door locations.
Sinfoni (company that makes em) claims that they actually sound worse in kickpanels.
I just wanted to know if that was a load of crap but NO ONE has em lol. But if you have
other recommendations lemme know... I'll check out those speakers WR recommended
if I can find those [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

Oh about those AD's.... the set includes W60 woofers and T10 tweets
AD info linky
