[QUOTE="okiedokie, post: 6289372, member: 599205"] Hey RunninRedline, Before spending 1200 on a set of Focal's,you might want to look into Hybrid Audio. you can talk with the owner scott, which he is very helpful-please read & look through this info. [URL="http://www.hybrid-audio.com/legatia_three_way.htm"]http://www.hybrid-audio.com/legatia_three_way.htm[/URL] [URL="http://www.hybrid-audio.com/downloads.htm"]http://www.hybrid-audio.com/downloads.htm[/URL] [URL="http://www.hybrid-audio.com/news.htm"]http://www.hybrid-audio.com/news.htm[/URL] [URL="http://www.hybrid-audio.com/demo_cars.htm"]http://www.hybrid-audio.com/demo_cars.htm[/URL] [URL="http://www.hybrid-audio.com/team_hybrids.htm"]http://www.hybrid-audio.com/team_hybrids.htm[/URL] [URL="http://www.hybrid-audio.com/team_hybrids.htm"]http://www.hybrid-audio.com/team_hybrids.htm[/URL] When you buy something from Hybrid Audio they will help you choose whats best for car. 1200 is just a lot to spend on a passive comp set!!! most companies that start up in the 1000 range will suggest going active. plus like many of these guys keep saying, be careful who you buy Focal off the internet from. to bad you couldnt just drive maybe 50-100miles out of your way to hear other companies, like Hertz milles,Im wouldnt buy another passive comp set except the Hertz Milles The tweeter is open & airy with a nice top end, plus that small tweeter can be xover pretty low. the upper mid is one of the flattest mids i've heard to date. the lower midbass is equal to focal k2p's & is one of the best sounding mids on the market. I went to a local shop last week to order the shallow 8inch mid from Hertz, the shop i went to was full of BS. so im going to go to another shop in the sf bayarea & hopefully they will order it for me. Remember we are in a recession & companies arent doing that well, you shouldnt have to pay the dealer mark ups, so look around for the best deal you can find. think about how much that dealer or any dealer pays for a speaker. The reason so many guys do diy is because you can pay around $200-$500 for raw drivers & it can sound just as good as those Focal's @ 1200 or even better. [/QUOTE]
