They are the equivelant of the CL-61 comp set in performance and quality. They just are not a phase plug design...standard type of center cap with the CDT logo on them. This comp set actually has a little nicer 1" silk tweeters then the CL-61 3/4" tweeter though. It's a $200.00 set of components.

Hey Ian, I had a question about the 6.5 subs with the 10-4k hz range you have on you midbase page. Do any of them fit in the sails and if so could I use them as a midbase with the stock amp but run them as subs later on when I upgrade to better amps?

Phase plug is the bullet shaped center piece in the middle of the midbass. The CL-61 and CL-E61 both use the same design where the cone moves around the fixed center cap/phase plug. The theory is that since it is a fixed center and the cone moves around it that it reduces distortion due to compression under the cone that a regular dust cap can cause in extreme cases and smooths frequency response. This does work.
That being said, CDT uses a slightly different cone anyway that creates a more elliptical shaped sound wave (vs. round) to focus frequencies better. If you notice on most of the CDT products they have a very small dustcap in the center which basically does the same type of thing a phase plug design does.
Some really high end stuff like Hertz don't even have a dust cap or phase plug but have a cone that is kind of V shaped.
It's just different types of speaker designs.
Here's some more info that kind of explains what I mean about CDT speakers:

They will work with the stock system but don't expect them to sound very good on stock power. They need a good amount of power to be optimal.
Here's the CT ES-06+ in action:

I have no affiliation with that video...just something I found awhile ago.

Hey Ian, thanks for the info, I love those speakers I bought from you for the doors and will probably upgrade the hatch speakers soon, and leave the sails for last.

The 626 is a standard seperate component set....seperate midbass and tweeter.
Shipping costs are included in the listed prices to the lower 48 states...Hawaii, Canada are extra.

The CDT M-6 will fit in the sail panels. The others will as well like the M6+ and ES-06+ BUT they would require a spacer. These are actually extended range subs that will hit all the low frequencies VERY well but can also handle a certain amount of midrange.
They will work with the stock system but don't expect them to sound very good on stock power. They need a good amount of power to be optimal.
