Compent sets! what do you use?

You could go with Rainbow Germaniums for ~$500 and they will sound amazing. I have a ~$270 set of Rainbows and they blow me away everyday, you would not regret the Germaniums.

I am a big DLS fan

Nick heard my BMW with the DLS 6.3 set as well.

ONLY weak point of the 6.3 set, IMO, was mid-bass. If you could build a small enclosure for the mid you would be golden.

Otherwise... used Adire Koda set would be nice.

if you go the Hybrid Audio route, you will most likely want to go Active, so you will need some sort of fancy deck or processor. or an just a plain Xover.

Please don't take offense to this, but it seems to me as if this subject is rather new for you. If that is the case, I would not bother with the more expensive sets or drivers just yet. Find a good retail set on Ebay and play around with them as much as you can before investing your hard-earned money into higher end equipment in a sub-par install. These drivers will be the MOST CRUCIAL in your application.
