I have seen some pretty low money MADISOUND and PARTSEXPRESS components made to sound great. Really I've seen some cheap package deal comps that actually can be made to sound good with just a better crossover and a good install. IMO you hit the point of diminishing returns with raw drivers a LOT quicker than you do with amps. I have < 300$ into my 3 way fronts and they're all fantastic drivers [/QUOTE]
