Bronze Member Username: The_image_dynamicSan Diego Post Number: 87 Registered: Dec-06 | I don't understand the budget part....with $300-400 per set you can easily get the hex's with cash to spare. I haven't heard any JL comps, but from what I read, they aren't nearly as regarded as their subs and amps. I own the S600S's and they are amazing. http://cgi.ebay.com/Diamond-Audio-S600S-S6-6-5-300W-COMPONENT-SPEAKERS-NEW_W0QQi temZ120068657281QQihZ002QQcategoryZ32819QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem |

Gold Member Username: AlteraudiousaConcord Post Number: 1396 Registered: Jan-06 | the ZRs have the better midrange IMO but total package goes to the Hexs. Just something I don't like in the high frequencies(mid and highs) and how they blend. HD's are a good pick also in there. |

Gold Member Username: AlteraudiousaConcord Post Number: 1399 Registered: Jan-06 | some companies allow for online sales others don't. Their stuff is usually new but its just not covered under manufacturers warranty which can lead to problems. When i worked at a store, funny enough it was Freeman's Stereo and Video, alot of people bought JL stuff from woofersetc.com and if something went wrong with it we'd have to turn them away b/c JL won't touch it but then the same problem from a customer who bought it from us and we'd switch it out for a new one and then send in the amp/speakers to get fixed, no hassle. |

Silver Member Username: Dsmith07LaGrange, NC US oF A Post Number: 399 Registered: Jun-06 | its always good to have a warranty but if your dealer charges 800 and woofersetc charges 300 thats 500 bucks difference ( simple math  ) the chances of you gettin em from woofers and them going bad are unpredictable i guess its a hard decision.... |

Bronze Member Username: WarlokOrlando, FL USA Post Number: 95 Registered: Dec-05 | I got the Hex's with Silk Tweeters, and Id take them over anything JL has anyday !  The only comp set JL has that is even comparable, is the . . . ZR series, and I beliver they are MUCH MORE the the HEX's. GO HEX, you will not be sorry. Ol Matt mentioned cdt-hd62, never heard them, but they have to be quite phenominal if ther are eve comparable. |

Bronze Member Username: WarlokOrlando, FL USA Post Number: 96 Registered: Dec-05 | And I agree, warranty is always good though ! But honetsly, you have to play something pretty hard to Fudge it up. Use you brain and I dont think you will have to worry, although there are always them freq occurences. |
