Well known, Focal Utopia or CDT Eurosport. Less well known, Rainbow, DLS, Phass, Macrom, Morel, Dynaudio, and a couple others that I can't remember right now.

IMO, a DIY set is the best bet...cheap, and you can customize everything to your likings..

Just wondering but how would you rate the infinity perfect 6 1/2 set?

Not even in the category as Focal or CDT.

http://www.madisound.com Look under catalog, under seas about 2/3rds of the way down the page. $830 per set.

Boston Acoustic 6.5 Pros or Z6's will be something else to look into.

I haven't heard them in an install that sounds as good as my Eurosports and my tweets are currently just sitting on my dash.

I'd vote for focal utopias as well. I haven't heard the CDT eurosport, how much do those run for? I'm not too found of the MB Quart Q series, my ears don't agree with them. Infinity kappa perfects are good for the money, but not top line. I currenly run Diamond Audio Hex and i'm happy with them, but they aren't as good as the focals.
