[QUOTE="Vanquish, post: 186263, member: 84"] Hi bro, Yeah, that's the new Billet range from Tru all right - so you're getting a new model and not something that's discontinued already. I know a lot of people who have skipped the rear-fills and just focussed on getting the soundstage set up right up front - myself included. My own plan is to have a pair of 3 way drivers up front eventually - a pair of 7 inch mid bass, a pair of 3 inch mid range domes and a pair of tweeters backed up by a sub at the back. However, if you ferry people around and would like to have some rearfill music to compliment the front staging, a pair of simple co-axials shud do the job nicely. I'm quite sure that the Focal Access or Polyglass range has a couple of co-axials in them - you might need to check on this as my knowledge of the Focal range is limited. Don worry too much about the sub and the type of sound you're aiming for - it's a good thing that you already know the type of sound you're aiming to create and this makes the installer's job a lot easier. A lot depends on the sub used and the enclosure design (sealed / ported / bandpass) but ultimately, with proper installation and tuning, it's easy to achieve a sound quality that suits your listening preference. Not sure if the Bazooka is an active sub but the ones that I've seen are mainly passive - meaning that they'll need external amplification to work. You have a much easier task now if you opt for co-axials at rear fills - the front channels of the amp will handle your comps while the rear channels can be bridged for the sub duties. Your rear-fills can be driven off your HU's power since we don't need much power for rear fill application.
