[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8925392, member: 689267"] I'd opt for something entirely different. That focal set is more of an attempt to have a presence in the semi-budget-oriented component offerings, somewhere that Focal should have just stayed away from. Focal shines where it matters in the mid to high and super high-end products; leave the budget brands to others. I mean, $180.00 set of components that use a mylar tweeter, I think not. Between the two, the Infinity set would be the clear winner, at the very least, it utilizes a woven textile tweeter, which is just a better sound to me than most any plastic film tweeters like Mylar or polyimide. AS for alternatives, here are a few budget lines that I think surpass either of the two in sound quality. The German-made silk tweeters alone, in these components, are worth it (and they're roughly the same price), hands down, the better-sounding components.
