anybody know any good 6.5 components that sound really good, get decently loud, and can handle at least 90 rms? i have been looking at the tantric comps but also wanna hear some other ideas. budget around 200$ depending on whats out there.

Towards the end of the summer I got myself a pair of the Incriminator Audio 6.5 component set. They sound amazing...

I65C 6.5" Component Set

I have heard great things about Crescendo's CZ series also

CDT HD-61 is a good one, although HD-61A has better crossovers. JBL P660C is another good option. We have these in stock.

I don't think they were on sale for that.. I could be wrong

To be honest I think even at $130 they are a great deal!!

I've seen the IAs around $90 slightly used

HD-61 isn't on our store. It's the same as HD-61A, except it uses smaller crossovers that don't have any adjustments. If you run them active it's a better value because the mids and tweeters are the same.

Didn't see sound deadening mentioned. It would be a very wise investment and much easier to do BEFORE all your equipment is in the car.

forgot about that, i have about 30 square feet of audio technix 80 mill left over from last build. going to do the roof at least and if i have enough the front doors. if i dont will have to wait a month or two. spent my budget that i allow myself each month already.i hate deadening thoug, its my least favorite part of audio lol
