If you are already running JL speakers, i would stick with them rather than going the Focal, http://www.jlaudio.com/c5-400cm-car-...ossovers-99127
The tonality of the Focals may not go well with the JL's,
Also, if the JL set you have is a 2 way system, you may need to get the 3 way passive crossover to drive them.
Unless you are wanting to run a full active 3 way front stage which even i am not game to try haha.
Hey Fudd,

I have had a mess around with the equalizer... not much luck still sounds rubbish, lol.

The set I have is just a 2 way set.

I have spoken to JL Audio, and they don't have a midrange speaker that they sell seperately that will fit. I would have to replace the whole system which I am not too keen on.

The man at Tonkins has suggested the Focal midrange speaker with a 3 way crossover. Installed it's $850. So it's not cheap... but I don't really have much of an option.
