Car audio geek opinions wanted

I was a high end audio installer in the 80's. What a fun time that was!!
Lots of tri-amped high power systems. I did some very nice work and learned a ton about sound. I now do sound engineering and sound reinforcement part time.

Anyway... here are two speaker companies you may heve never heard of, but trust me, they are the best in quality and sound.

Seas (SEE-ahhs)

Peerless


Stock German speakers sound too dry to me. I think they were ATT speakers. Paper cones, rubber surrounds...

Have fun!!! 928s have nice acoustics!!

Thanks Dino! I actually do remember Seas speakers but I don't remember from where. I vaguely remember someone using Seas home audio tweeters in a car audio application. Peerless are definitely new to me. Unfortunately, no one has them to listen to, and I am not buying anything blind.

I love my set up.

Infinity kappa's in the panels and doors.
2 10' Bazooka subs in an enclusure in the back
Pioneer head unit and amps.

If I was going to do a bi or triamped system again, I'd take a look at Scanspeak Revelators.

Audiocontrol DQT is probably the best crossover to run it.

All that aside, I'd put the first $500 or so into sound deadening no matter what you decide on components, because it really does make that much difference.

In the car, or home, the room is at least half the sound.

this post got me curious about the boxes of stuff i got in the basement, so i dug it out, and totally forgot about half the stuff i had. found an old yamaha head unit, and eq, with the sub channels etc, but the speaker box i got into found some polk audio, (again, remember, i havent messed with car audio in years, so this was top notch stuff at one time)
back to the point,
i do remember these speakers sounding really sweet, and being good speakers.....dont know it polk is still making speakers, but they were a great affordable speaker, with really good full sound. again, cant remember your post, but know you said something about afforability, or something like that, ok, i guess im up to .04
