Question Image Dynamics CX62

Here is a link to these speakers on cardomain.com. http://www.cardomain.com/item/IDSCX62?vq_id=none

Btw I'm a car audio newbie.

These speakers run at 2 ohms. Would they make a decent replacement speaker for the 6.5" monsoons' in the doors and the sails? What do you guys think?

No, actually those are midbass speakers so you wouldn't have the highs that you get with your tweeter stock. You would want these 2 ways http://www.cardomain.com/item/IDSCTX6 to go in the doors and maybe those mids of yours would be okay in the sail panels, but the sail panel speakers have 8 ohm resistance so they wouldn't make any sound if you're using the stock amp.

I wouldn't use these as they only go down to 45hz.

but the sail panel speakers have 8 ohm resistance so they wouldn't make any sound if you're using the stock amp.
Last time I checked the TA sub was a dual voice coil sub, each coil being 4ohm creating a 2 ohm load at the amp.

No 6.5 will play down to 45hz with a +3db. If you want to go that low you need an actual sub.

You would be supprized how much of the music you listen to actually plays down that low. (Unless your listening to bass CDs on a 6.5 which I highly doubt)
