I have been checking out speakers for the past couple days and I've become familiar with some name brands. Currently, I am leaning towards the Infinity Kappa Perfect 5.1 ($254 @ onlinecarstereo.com). I heard mixed reviews on these components and want more feedback from people who have heard them. I would appreciate any other suggestions for components that are in that same price range ($200-300ish). |

I have two other prospects now too, the Focal 130 A1 and the JL Audio XR525-CSi. I was wondering if anyone ever tried using a 6x8 component? and if those are effective in comparison to circular components? |

The perfect system to me would have clear tweeters/highs since I am installing a pair of kappa perfects 12dvq in the trunk. |
