Message: [QUOTE="jdc753, post: 343756, member: 52"] something you can do to help out on the distortion instead of swapping out speakers would be to deaden/seal the doors, or bring the tuning up a touch and the sub up a touch so they aren't trying to play so low. Deadening/sealing the doors will give a bit more control to the speakers cone by changing its "enclosure" configuration (I believe from free-air to an Infinite Baffle configuration.) This normally allows a person to play the mids with a lower crossover frequency, or would reduce breakup at an already low crossover point, plus allow for the speaker to play stronger and handle a touch more power (since it would have a bit more control) Quite honestly I have been out of the game for a bit too long to really be able to give a solid suggestion on a good set at this moment, but Focal, Hertz (HSK165's, I think Gare has a set), Rainbow and Image Dynamics would be good brands to check for more on the SQ range. Alpine Type R's should get pretty loud and sound decent, Type-X will be more of an SQ related set, but I would skip the Type-X pro since the ring radiator tweeters are a little more picky on how they are installed (need to be directly aimed at the listening or their frequency response drops drastically) Pioneer Premiers 720PRS. Those MB Quarts actually look pretty decent. I would imagine maybe the silk dome tweeter limiting the loudness feeling since silk is generally a more mellow laid back style where a metal dome is generally brighter (some say harsh). Honestly I would say unless you are looking to blow more than $500+ on a new set then you won't be getting all that ahead on them as you would with some door treatments and some tuning (which I would also suggest if installing a $500+ set of components) [/QUOTE]
