Which Components in $350? Informed Buyer - Do Read!

[rnl8888]

Guys need your suggestion on which 6.5" components to go for. My budget is max $350 and restricted to ordering from Amazon.com only. I can not order from anywhere else because I don't live in the US and my credit card is accepted only on Amazon and no where else.

Uptill now my choices are

1)Alpine Type X PRO

2)Focal 165KR (these are available in my country for around $340)

I listen mostly to hip hop, dance and indian/bhangra music. This setup is going into a Honda Civic 2009 model (4 door) and the rest of the system specs are

1)Pioneer AVH-P4200DVD Touchscreen HU w/JBL MS-8

2)Rockford Fosgate RFK4D Dual Amplifier wiring Kit

3)Focal Power 2.75 Limited Edition Amplifier

4)Dynamat Extreme Deadening on front doors and trunk

5)Pioneer TS-W12PRS sub in 1 cu.ft sealed enclosure

To give you guys an idea about my lsitening preferences, I have heard some components and my reviews are given to help you guys make a better decision for me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

1)Focal 165KRX2 - Lovely components. The best I have heard yet with balanced and wide sound

2)Focal Polyglass 165VR V30 Limited Edition - The only focal components with natural sound, however lacks depth

3)Focal Polyglass 165VR - Accurate yet too bright for my taste

4)Morel Tempo 6 - Excellent components with neutral sound. Love them

5)Focal Access 165A1 - Once again too bright for me taste

5)Pioneer D1720C - Dont even mention them. Bright as hell and feels like my ears will start bleeding

These were the review of the components I have heard. I am hoping you guys will help me make an informed decision as $350 is a big amount for me. I love Morels but its a bummer that the components better than Morel Tempo 6 cost more than $350.

Looking forward to the suggestions.

Have you tried using your CC through eBay? I know some of the stores will ship worldwide like SonicElectronix through their eBay store.

If your willing to try Id suggest these:

ECLIPSE SC8365 6.5" Component Car Speakers System 600W - eBay (item 300495314889 end time Dec-20-10 08:48:26 PST)

You can also look for some Hertz HSK165's.

ordering $140 components is not what I have in mind. Also dont like the HSK 165. I rate them below Morel Tempo 6

Unfortunately the CC does not works on ebay/paypal/sonixelectronix/woofersetc etc. Amazon is the only place it works

Thats just a blowout price because they are discontinued. Normally they were $350+

problem is I wont be able to order them anyway (due to my CC not working on ebay).
