I have an '02 Tundra, and just put in an Alpine 9831, and am looking to replace the stock fronts with some components. Want the best quality for a cheaper price. I've read a lot of good reviews on these. Anyone have em? Or is there something better in this class? |

He was referring to how much the threadstarter had to spend. The Infinity References are good in their price range, they're in the "stock replacement category". The lows aren't as bad on those, they're a little better than the Kappas and the Perfects on the low end. They'll add a significant improvement in SQ over stock, you just won't be entering any competitions in them. IMO you'd be better off with the Kappa or Kappa Perfect components, they're significantly better than the References for SQ and aren't too bad as far as price, you can find the Kappas around $150 online and the Perfects around $200-250. CDT offers great components for the price, too. |

You can get Dynaudios for a little over $500 online, Focals are around $600, the DLS Iridium set around that price too. |

None are really better than the others, they all have their own characteristic sound that will be for you to decide. All of those are neutral sets, meaning one part of the frequency range doesn't really stick out, it's balanced. The Focals are the brighter set (tweeter is brighter), the Dynaudios are the most neutral, the DLS set is similar to the Dynaudios as far as tonality, but a little more lively. All are fantastic sets, you'd just have to try and hear all of them. If you're looking for loud sets or a more powerful set, you'll need to look at other components though. |
