[QUOTE="thasnake, post: 948109, member: 561166"] Currently I have JL Audio XR650 comps in the front. They are being fed by a rockford amp (551x 4ch | 2 ch -->tweeters + 2ch -->6.5s using HU crossover in 3-way mode) with 70 wrms/ch. Right now they sound pretty good, but I want to upgrade. I want to bridge the amp into 2 channels at 200+ per channel and upgrade to some comps that will handle the power and sound better than the JLs and have good midbass. One problem I am having is that there aren't a whole lot of shops (if any) around to listen to some higher end comps. I was also thinking of mixing brands too. Maybe a xxx6.5 with some tweeters and active crossover. Budget is around $350 - $400, will go higher if there is a BIG difference in quality. I searched on the CDTs, Boston Pros, Focals and Diamond Hexes. I really don't have a way to compare them sound wise. Need your help.
