Default Anyone using RE Audio RE6.5C

Just bought a set of their RE components for my fronts. Price, specs, and the few reviews I could find is what made me choose RE. Had been also considering RF T1 6.5's and MB Quart PVL 216 as well.
Anyway, to whomever that have experience with these, please tell me what you think. Also, where did you mount the tweeters? I'm considering trying the Pipe end caps into the base of the A-pillars for a nice look and on-axis install. Anyone have an opinion on this method?

I'm going with the "End Cap" into the A-Pillar base or dash mod. Less than $20 in parts and it will provide professional sounding On-Axis imagining. And with a little effort and imagination, anyone can make the install look like an extreme big money Installation: http://www.diymobileaudio.com/forum/...eter-pods.html

Barely $20 in parts!!

Anyway, as bad-assed as this mod looks and performs, I am mainly looking for personal experiences and amplifier recommendations for the RE Audio RE6.5C's...

If you're not willing to listen to input, then don't ask. Personally, I think what you linked looks awful, and the sharp edges will cause diffractions that lower sound quality.

They are ok for the price.
Whats your budget for component speakers?
I have some really nice Focal Performance options now for everyone that have been selling like crazy
