Comps 6.5 500 budget

[Pl8er 5,000+ posts]

As Christmas is getting closer I'm planning my big xmas present now to save my fiance some headache and give her some time to save up for it I want to get a new pair of comps for my car and as the title says I'm looking at 500 dollars. Currently I am running CDT CL-61's being fed power from a TRU 4.65 (rated at 83.5 watts rms from TRU) and I am using a RF Symmetry pre-amp. I listen to heavier music like disturbed, tool, breaking benjamin but I also like Tori Amos and radiohead so I need a diverse speaker.

Any suggestions? I've looked at some dynaudio and Morel. Anyone got anything specific?

Thanks!

Not many places around here with rainbow or CDT. Actually Columbus, Ohio doesn't seem to have much in the car audio shop area. I'll look into rainbow right now. Thanks.

Throw more ideas if you have any more.

I'm currently selling EF-61s for $200, and I'll replace the tweeters with better ones (ES-100s...definately a large improvement) for $40 extra.

anything will be a step up from the Cl's which had the lesser tweet if your model # is correct. I sent you a PM so check it and i'll help you out in any way I can.

Thank for all the replies! I'm really thinking about the rainbows now that I have seen some reviews on here as well as online, they look to be the type of speaker I am looking for.

I'm headed to check my PM's now as well, thanks for sending them my way!
