[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8618799, member: 614752"] Here we go again. JL equipment is and has always been very nice, it's just premium priced. Do you need it/will you hear the difference? Do you value companies that still manufacture in the USA? These kids don't really understand what premium costs. The stuff where you're actually getting R&D or who manufacture in the first world is going to start at JL pricing and go up. Browse component woofers, mids, and tweeters over at Madisound. SEAS, Morrel, Focal, etc get spendy very fast. Some folks pay 400$+ a pop for a single tweeter. Personally I like the Zed Audio amps for the money and if you have deeper pockets the stuff he is designing for Focal right now is the absolute state of the art technology. Let us know your goals, the vehicle, and your level of comfort with DIY. If you're going to a shop to do the install you may need to work around what they sell in order to get them to offer you install, service, and warranty.... which may well be worth paying the markup.
