I have tried several different full range woofs paired w horns and they definitely bring the warmth in exchange for the loud. The last fairing I tried was the Hertz MLK woof w horns and it was a pretty damn nice sound.

That's the unicorn hunt I guess. Possibly get some warmth via full range woofs in the fairing for guys pairing w horns or add some warmth at additional speaker locations.

The options are unfortunately endless as each rider has very different ears and goals. Ultimately the reason this sled audio rubics cube can be a very cool hobby for many.

One of the first words out of my mouth to the OP when he stopped by the house and we were discussing his upgrade was what are you looking for sound wise and his response was loud crisp and clean.
So I dug out the laptop and shut down my system stage by stage so he could get an idea of what each stage sounded like individually and as a whole.

He also has been to a couple of bike nights and has heard various set ups.

What he has posted was going to be the front stage and he will being working on the rear stage as funds come around.

Awesome stuff. No better way to find the finish line than to hear first hand all of the stages and the impact they have on your setup.

Damn cool of u to step up and help a brother out!!!
