Because of an unfortunate blowing of my stock speakers in my rig, I'm now in the market for some new 6.5 components. I've heard focals are great speakers, so I took a trip to car toys to hear some. I got to talking with one of the installers there about our systems, and he was telling me that in his oppinion out of all their speakers from their selection, the best for my money would be the focal 165v1 components for like $350. He recomended them as second best to the focal poly kelvlar speakers at 800bucks a pop. He played both for me and honestly I didnt hear much of a difference from their poly kevlar speakers to the 165v1. Of course I probably wont buy from cartoys because they are a tad overpriced... but I have found them online for $230 shipped. Would you think that these be worth my money? Staying around 250ish, what could be some other options that could be better?
