Got my Excels in today and put them in the Ranger (temporary install until I make a true MDF/Plywood baffle for them). Bliss, that's all I can say. These thing are ridiculously clear and detailed.

I dedicate this thread to JoeyC

(You should've gotten the mids

)

Will do ASAP. My digital camera crapped out on me, but I have a disposable that I need to use up, so I'll finish it off with some pics of the Excels and before pics of the almighty Ranger

.

I've just got back from testing them with Tori Amos, and oh man female vocals have never sounded so good

I'm really liking the dash mounted mids, can't wait until I get a tweeter in there permanently and widen the stage. AND, they drop really low for 4.5" speaker IB, even with a rather crappy "baffle". Looks like a real world crossover around 150hz, possibly lower even at highway speeds

. Best $120 I ever spent.

Haven't gotten mine yet, but I am hopeful they will show in a few days. From the sound of things, I really got my money's worth

$58 for a mid that's used in $100k+ home audio systems? Hell yeah we got our money's worth

Check your PM, BTW.

Special on madisound, but they've sold out of them:

SEAS Excel W11CY midrange drivers (4.5"), they were NIB from a production run in 2000. Madisound only had 15 of them.

You'll pay over $130 each for a new one., though it's been updated since the W11CY.
