whatever u do dont buy anything from indoaudio the guy scams a lot of people. but the focals are cr#p for that kind of money unless ur getting the upper models id say stay away from moral and focal. the infinity's arent bad i have a thing about hating diamond so ya lol but mhh ive heard to many mixed reviews on the cdt's also so not sure there the boston's according to many people they lack mid bass but sound nice

so far the a/d/s seem to be the choice.. are there any comps i left out that would fit the budget and sound as good or better than what is listed?

well im not buying now.. just doing some research for later on.. but since your not using them isaac ill take them off your hands :-) .. $150 shipped

but now plans have kind of fell into place.. I'm about to pick me up another BEtter Audio 1600M1/RE35.1 .. then soon another RE SX 15" .. so I'll have to have a frontstage loud enough to be heard over those two subs.. factory locations but I might angle the subs in the door to re-stage it better

Man I really wish I could.. my bro and parents are splitting the diff on that amp for a present. only way I can afford that. Only way I'll have money is If I sell my amp or box .. or talk my fiances mom into picking those up for me :-) .. I'll see if I can get the funds some how.. I would seriously love to get them though .. and they are 6.5 correct?!

yea.. but no one here is in the market.. not to mention everyone where I live goes by what the amp says so they end up getting no-name amps that say 2000watts! .. lmfao .. well you can send me $30 for a copy of BBP6 :-) .. if I raise enough money I'll be able to buy some comps without selling my amp
