boston acoustics makes some damn good speakers (although a bit pricey)...so i don't know how they are "really bad". the SX65's are just coaxils, not really true components. but even so, they should provide decent amount of midbass.
i think it's the install that's need adjustment...

What about completely sealed? In deadening the doors against rattles is one thingm but have you covered up the access panels to seal the doors? That would increase your midbass response, as you seem to have a decent set right now. Just a thought as well this will keep you from brand hopping trying to find the mid. If anything follow don and manny and do an 8 in the door and some domes in the kick or actual kickpanels for front imaging.
Subs. 3 twelves sealed for the win. If your currently running two type rs they would be best setup in just over four cubes for the two subs. for a combination of the two music styles i would say your close i would shoot a little lower on the tuning. Get over to the car audio box website( Google TCAB) and youll be set...Or you could just get with SBlazer or TCAB (Mark Potts) on www.forums.caraudio.com and get some specs. Their pretty knowledgeable on those subs (150+ on single sub setups constantly...

If you listen to rock music the most, i'd stay away from 15s.. they'll only bring you less kick. And definately go sealed..

Man........I only have one little ole ten inch sub.......Might be going with a 12 pretty soon though .
I remember when I was in high school and some guys had four 15's in their cars. When they drove by it felt as if someone was thumping you on your chest.

Probably not what you were thinking ...
I will probably be going with an ARC series 12D2. I had thought about the SS RL-p12, but after emailing Mike a few times I decided otherwise. The SS sub is going to require a much bigger box than what I have now to sound nice. The ARC sub only requires a .90 cubic foot box. I know in one of the reviews it said it had a hump in the upper bass frequency response with this enclosure, but nothing a little EQ-ing or lower x-over setting wont fix. In the review they actually put it in a 1.25 cubic foot box. Trunk space is pretty important to me. I may play around with my amplifier location to see if I can squeeze some more room. I will see..........

If you want your metal to hit hard with subs you are going to need a subwoofer cone that is made of (ironically enough) metal as it will provide the fast response you are looking for with double-bass laden songs. I had to spend around $1k to get the subs system equipment, but you get what you pay for.

I think im looking for more sq than i thought but i dont want to lose spl from what i have now.
I was looking to only spend 800 for 2 subs and an amp but if i have to spend 1000 to get what i want i will.
Does anyone run CDT comps and how do you like them??
How much deadening is everyone using??
Sorry for all of the questions but im trying to do it right this time.....and i wanted to go to a nice set of comps to build a nice front stage....im not just a bass head.
