Update: Box wont fit in my car (too wide). Talked him down to $200 on the sub so I'm still going to take a look. Hopefully meters out and isnt frozen!

And thanks for all the welcomes!

None in the rear, why? Im currently missing one (blew my type R 6.5) and the people in the back feel blown away by the crappy 12s i have in the hatch now. I cant imagine theyd enjoy just getting slammed by an 18. Yeah, dont really get it either, Im all for loud, but thats just non-sensical. And yeah, knowing how to vote is great, apparently were in the minority there. Love the beaches, but wish I could take my car out on more of them than just Daytona. I was considering a set of CDT CL-61A.2-25 PRO for the rears, since theyre 150w rms @ 2 ohm, so i could actually get alot out of the NX4 I plan on buying Opinions on this^ since most of my other speaker ideas have been shot down

Guess ill pass, thought it was worth some opinions on. thanks for the feedback everyone. I was worried about the age as well. Id love an SP4, but its a little outside my price range and intended use, I'm budgeting about $350 give or take for a 15" or 18" for my new setup so i figured if I could score an XXX with a box for that I'd be ahead. So for my $350, ive been looking at the Icon 18", Death row 15", Fi bl 18" or bl 15" + options. Any recommendations or others I should consider around there? Im not going for spl competitions, just something that can get low and loud while retaining good musical quality.

Trying to keep the speakers under $400 total, which is half the reason i was looking into the crescendos (since all of that would have been like $230).

Well this is why i joined here. Thanks for the input. So if supertweets and pro audio is out. I guess that means ill be going for a good set of components. What would be your recommendation for a mid-high setup that could balance out the 18", will get decently loud and is somewhere between $100 and $200 per set.

Id be getting the box and sub for 350 (maybe less). Im not entirely sure of the box dimensions, or what its built out of, havent heard back from him on that. Ill probably call him tomorrow and discuss that. Im bringing a tape measure when I go to check it out so ill know for sure. I thought the same thing, but I'm not worried about it, i can just flip the box. Or theres like a 4 inch well in the back of my Xterra that my sub sits over any ways so itll have plenty of room to flex.

Install location would be preferably stock with a spacers and/or mount for the front holes. Im trying to avoid doing and fiberglassing to keep time and cost down. So in the front 6x9s would be biggest I could do, and in the back 6.5s. Budget limitations for the entire project would beunder 2000. Prefferably under 1500. Whats wrong with supertweets? Granted the only ones I have heard were the riciculous Seleniums used to get over an SPL setup so I wasnt exactly worried about their SQ but just being some semblance of a high frequency. I figured running two of the FTs wouldnt be so bad. Hmm, all I've heard is good things about crescendo. What about them in your opinion would make them worse than what I currently have? And since I'm definitely looking to upgrade, what might you recommend in a similar price range? I have been considering the Skar VXI65s or waiting on the Mezzo components that they just announced.
