Posted October 10, 201014 yr In short~ Acoustically Astounding. My Friends FIRST system. Head Unit~ Alpine 9855, running ActiveFront Stage Amp~ Alpine PDX 4.100Sub Stage Amp~ MTX 81001Sub Stage~ 2 Atomic APX 12"sI am VERY tired, and after some more tune time tomorrow I will give a more in depth review. I just had to get that out.
October 10, 201014 yr Author Got some tune time in, and I am amazed at how clear and LOUD these speakers are. It was a straight switch from stock speakers with no amp, to the Bravox's with the Alpine PDX on them and my friend is as happy as could be. Right out the box I knew they were great speakers, the build quality was phenomenal. The crossovers do seem a little bulky, but since we didn't use them, it didn't bother me that much. Once we were deep into the install I was going to put the 6.5" into the door only to realize the Bravox's were physically wider then the stock ones by about 1/8th of an inch. So after some careful dremel work to make room I got them in. After that was the tweeter installation, my friend didn't want to drill massive holes into his car for flush mounting so I just placed them on the top of the door panel as far forward as I could with the angle mounts. The tweeter was VERY difficult to get into the angle mounts for some reason. With just plugging everything in to make sure it played and ZERO tuning, gains still at 6v on the amp, I was already blown away by the Bravox's clarity and loudness. With only tuning in gains, a little EQ play, and some crossover tweaking. I have come to the conclusion........... These are some simply amazing speakers.
October 10, 201014 yr you feeding the midbass and the tweeters 100rms or are your gains dialed back? I am just trying to figure out myself what to feed them. Great review!

October 11, 201014 yr Glad you like them Drew. lol. I have the drivers side in right now. I am waiting on power wire and deadener for a full install with mine. But they sound great just off of the factory amp with factory Xovers. Can't wait to get mine in for realz.
