September 16, 201113 yr Author Iirc, lithium has some hds tweets for saleI'll send him a pm and see if he still has them.This is going to sound rather dumb but I like how these look: Fostex FT28D 28 mm Dome Tweeter http://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/soft-dome-tweeters/fostex-ft28d-28-mm-dome-tweeter/ But yeah I'll see if Lithium still has his.
September 16, 201113 yr Author I can buy a jbl ms-8 brand new for $500It also has speaker outputs:4 ohms: 18 watts x 8 chan.18watts should be plenty for the tweeters?Then I could just use my current amp: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_29982_VIBE-Audio-LiteBox-Stereo-2-LiteBox2.htmlfor the midrange.Or I could afford the JBL GT5-A604 http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_12251_JBL-GT5-A604.html and have it do everything.4 ohms: 60 watts x 4 chan.Think that's enough power for the midrange?If so, this would give me way more control then the RF 3sixty.2, and I wouldn't have to deal with buying some bluetooth adapter and connecting it to the computer.

At full tilt you may be off a few dB's from your potential but that is easily rectified later if it bugs you.MS-8 > 360 anyday of the week, although don't get caught up in the automatic setup hype.

But I know it's a way more advanced dsp so why not. I think I'll just get this: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_12251_JBL-GT5-A604.html and run everything off it, for the sake of simplicity.God knows I need some simplicity.
September 16, 201113 yr Author Pure WIN right now, I got the ms8 for $460 brand new, not on ebay either... WOOT WOOT
September 17, 201113 yr Iirc, lithium has some hds tweets for salewrong guy, think ryan has them for sale.

September 18, 201113 yr Nice grab on that MS8. Warning though, it's not quite as plug-n-play as advertised It takes a little bit of tinkering still.
September 18, 201113 yr Author Nice grab on that MS8. Warning though, it's not quite as plug-n-play as advertised It takes a little bit of tinkering still.Thanks, I'm not planning on running through the wizard then calling it a day. I read the entire manual today, it looks pretty awesome, I think after installing it, people could call me a "tweaker" and I couldn't take offense to it. For anyone else looking for an ms8, sonic electronix has them for 499, and you can submit an offer right below the "add to cart" button, try submitting around 430 and it should come back with a price in the 460 range.
September 19, 201113 yr Iirc, lithium has some hds tweets for salewrong guy, think ryan has them for sale. Sorry. I didn't recall right.
