Good Idea?
I've come across a guy who'se selling A pair of Alpine SPX 5.25" Woofers. Since i moved my front tweeters to the dash, i've been thinking about adding a dedicated midrange. I'd have to buy a set of SPX MB crossovers (if you know where to buy some I'd love some suggestions)
I'll be running them at 100W per channel with 180 W peak.
Does this sound like a good idea or will i be throwing $$$ away?

Actually, i'd like s mid around 3.5-4" instead of the larger 5.25 however the Type X 4" woofer is a rare one.....and finding the SPX 17MB crossover is even more challenging.
What i'd like to do is get a cleaner midrange especially in the area of electric guitars, mostly in the area of 1K-5kHz.
are you selling your Dynaudio MD142s ?

I think you would be hard pressed to find a mirange cleaner sounding than the dyn MD142 - In fact that's one of the reasons I'm not using them anymore. I like a LITTLE bit of a warm/dirty sound in the midrange.
They can run 700hz @ 24db - 4.5khz pretty well
wouldnt cross them lower than 800hz if your slope is 12db.
im selling damn near everything actually, in my other post.
