place to buy online?

[timmyjimmy5150 10+ year member]

I was thinking of buying some Focal 165K2P components.... Was just wondering about WHERE I could buy them online? Anyone have any good sites to recommend? Or, should I skip Focal altogether because I don't have a dealer near my home (or in my state for that matter) and not buy online but go with another component set by a different manufacturer?

Suggestions?

Any ideas?

i dont think there is an autherized(sp?) focal dealer on the web.

Yes.. I realize that.... Was just wondering if someone had bought focals online before at a store and was happy with the purchase? I don't have a store dealer near me.... so it's either buy online or change manufacturers.......

give 6spdcoupe a PM, he sells Rainbow and most people on this board would choose Rainbow over Focal anyday!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

I am planning on running Focals for my new car. I've just never really looked into Rainbow much. So what makes everyone choose RB over Focal? Just curious.

if you like bright highs then focals are for you, my profi's have silk tweets and i can crank them and NEVER get fatigued...even Rainbow's metal tweets are smooth. focals are too much money IMO.

Yeah I have noticed the hard material tweets are always harsh..

So what 6.5" comps would you reccommend for an SQ guy? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif (Rainbow lines..)

I was gonna get the old 3way Utopia comps but now they only have the Utopia-BE, which I'd love to have but they are expensive. Number 7 = //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif

in some situations i'm sure you can EQ the brightness out of a tweet or maybe your vehicle soaks up the highs just right. other than that some people like bright highs.

some of the Rainbow lines have 3 versions. standard, kick-bass, and phase plug. the phase plug versions are the pure SQ version. give 6spdcoupe a PM and he can explain in greater detail.
