[QUOTE="Strontium90, post: 8170152, member: 658027"] The Alpine component speakers were mounted on a wall with several different JL Audio speakers, some Kenwood Excelons, Pioneers, Hybrid, and another brand that escapes me. The Alpines sounded the best to me, so I suppose you are right that those would be the ones I should get. I'm not sure what you mean by "bottom tier". Does that mean that the speakers are low quality? I'm sorry for my ignorance, but I have no idea what you mean by TR or VR (I've been out of car audio for a long time). I am 48 years old and doubt I can hear anything above 12 kHz so maybe the speakers I'm considering are limited but I can't hear the difference. The Kenwood Excelons sounded quite decent, as did the top JLs, but the Alpines seemed to sound as good for less than half the price. Maybe I've got dead ears [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG]. Thanks for the reply Neo, it's much appreciated. Are there any particular 6.5" component systems you would recommend? Oh, and the amp I'm looking at is okay, do you think? [/QUOTE]
