hey peeeps, I went out to audition a bunch of different speakers last week but am unfortunately not able to hear cdt, boston, rainbow etc..... I heard Focal k2p i liked how loud they got, but they seemed a little too forward and kind of hurt my ears after listening for a bit. < i also heard the zapco's but they sounded awful at high volume then i listened to the spx-17ref AND REALLY LIKED THE MIDBASS, great pounding and sounding midbass, but the tweeter sounded very... muddy? muffled? etc... <br><br> so keeping this stuff in mind what would you guys recommend on say a $300 budget? used is always an option. i have 2x200w rms @ 4 ohms power available! THANKS!!! |

Rainbow really wouldn't be a bad choice here. There is the option to mix and match with tweeters and mids if you have the chance (see ebay for this one). Funny that you liked Alpines so much ;) Have you checked out Dynaudio? |

you could try xr components they might sound better then the coax. Also what car are they going in. are you running just two front speakers no rear and no sub? |
