Eclipse component speaker impression

The Tang Bands are great little woofers for people like me who want good overall frequency response and low-end reinforcement, but not for someone who wants the typical "boom" sound.  For that, nothing replaces large diaphrams, large enclosures and high power.

New car.  The Seas Lotus set is in a different car.

Good to hear that you are that impressed David, I have used the various incarnations of these speakers for years. They are a set of Vifa speakers in disguise for those that did not know. That chrome flame blue led grill that you wanted is in the mail to you....expect it next week.

Now about ESN......your complaining because the unit did it's job? Next time remember to have no cd in the unit or have the correct key cd in the unit before you unplug the power from it...... I get about 2 people a week that this has happened to, in some cases it is the same people over and over and over again.  Yes they know all about ESN but what can you do about stupidity, it seems to come to some people naturally. I think that you just forgot about how particular it really is. If you remove power to the unit in any way and there is a cd  in the unit, it will automatically source that cd 5 times until the unit locks up due to the wrong cd being inserted. This is the root cause of more people coming in the door from the car dealers no matter how many times I tell the service guys what they need to do. Jeepers.

Ah, thanks for the info, Rob.  The woofers DO look a lot like Vifa PL18W woofers.  Interesting! 

FWIW, the ESN in my HU is activated.  And I also have an alarm.

are these last years model components or the new ones? im really not too fond of their new set as the highs are too much with the metal dome tweeter they are using. im eventually switching back to the 6 1/2 set that i had in my last car and selling the new style 5 1/4 set i have in there now. id rather the sound of the soft dome since it adds more warmth. well, least it does to me. oh yeah, and welcome to the eclipse junky club. :)
