Need speaker recommendations!!!
I need some recommendations on a good set of components for the front doors and 2 way speakers (coaxial) for the rear side panel. I was eyeballing JL Audio C-1's and C-2's but am open to others. Max budget is $500 but would rather stay around 400+/-. Currently, I have a JL 12W3v3 powered by 500W. An LCi6 and an alpine 4channel amp good for 300W. 1LE is a 6speaker system with no factory amp or ANC. Thank you.

Haven't installed yet but I will document for this forum. Going to follow the others like slickzl1 in the "1LE section" under "amp location". Its a thread around 10 pages. Basically tap into front panel kick plate wires.

Are you a histologist by chance? Noticed the name and had to ask. Bet not too many people around here even know what a histologist does! |

Good guess, Histology technician. I work for a private dermatopathology lab. What do you do? I agree no one has the slightest clue.

Hertz mille 1650.3 legend two way speakers, the crossovers are large if you go with a passive setup but the sound quality is impressive. In the end it's up to your listening preference and music taste. Don't skimp on the DSP it's as important as your speaker selection. Helix DSP.2 is what I'm running and it totally changed the clarity of the system as a whole. Good luck man.

Use these recommendations as just a roadmap to making your choice. You REALLY need to listen to them in-person because all of our ears and music opinions are different.
What I do is take a song that I know very well and have a stereo shop play it on the stuff they are showing me. I use Hotel California (the live one).
