CT Sounds Meso 5.25 Inch Component Speaker Set

This is my First CT Sounds purchase. I am very impressed with the Meso 5.25 component set. They have Aluminum baskets, push terminals , and are made with quality craftsmanship. They have a dynamic, clean, clear, full sound with plenty of mid bass. In my opinion you rarely get all of those attributes even at a price point of 5 times what I paid for these . The front stage in my car now consists of 2 sets of the Meso componet sets.

Components were of high quality and made well built. Midsubs were really big, you would need a deep spot to mount. Overall I liked this product and the price was really good.

I finally hooked these up to the packaged crossover, and they sound great! There are many options for mounting the tweeter. The option I picked mounts the tweeter in a rotatable gimbal mount so that the tweeter can be pointed any direction within a generous plane degree.

So I bought some speakers and I put them in and they just barely had any sound coming out of them and anytime I try to turn it up they would squeak and pop sound a little blown so I'm like maybe it's just bad connection or you know bad sound coming through . I completely reground my truck new ground straps hole shot and hooked up a 200 watt amp to these which they should handle this not a problem cuz technically it's only running 120 RMS to four speakers mind you . And it just sounds worse . So I contacted CT sounds and ask them what I could do about it and you know they were sympathetic I guess and you know ask me to do a couple things I did . But then they literally want me to take video of them not working correctly which truthfully the way that I have it set up right now you can hear them but they don't crackle they're turned down so I would have to become a cinematic photographer to be able to adjust the levels to where they would squeak again and run the video camera at the same time . And to be honest I just don't want to deal with the hassle . and I didn't actually get a hold of them to get a refund or to get a warranty or anything like that I was just telling them that their product was garbage that's it and they wanted to go through with a whole return scenario which I guess is cool but the hoops you got to jump through to get a return it's just not worth it I mean I'm just going to buy another set of speakers anyways and change these ones out . And the magnet on the back of the speakers is massive you figure the submids would actually have some bass come out of them it's all tweeter and the speaker is so thick did it barely fits in my door and my window when it's rolled down touches the top of the magnet on the speaker . These are not good quality speakers they look like their quality they got good magnets on them but the sound that comes out of them is cheap at best I would never recommend these to anybody else ever .

I have 1 set per front door total of 2 mids 2 tweeters per door ran off a Orion 6002 and man these are some of the best budget comp sets I've ever ran. Crossed at 80hz these sound really good. Tweeters are a little bright so I have them at -3db and it helped a lot. Mids were a little deep considering my build. I chose the lazy budget build without fiber glass or cutting me doors.
