[QUOTE="Cliff459, post: 8322722, member: 660957"] I agree it's a lot of money to spend, but I would do it in a minute if the sound was what I was looking for. I just spent about $550 on a pair of PHD 6.5" comps (2-way), and I think it was very well spent for the SPL and clarity they produce. Nothing like Italian-made fiberglass cones for the rock-n-roll I listen to, the midbass is fantastic and rock drums and guitar will vibrate the crap out of my front floor of my truck cab at high levels (JL 300/2 driving them). For contrast, my good friend just bought a set of audio monitors for his recording studio and laid out $10k for the pair. It is an understatement to say that the sound coming from them is stunning; recorded grand piano played back over them makes you feel like the pianist is sitting directly in front of you and the imaging convinces you that you can reach out and touch the piano itself.

I spend about 2 hours a day in my vehicle doing my commute, and I have been a musician all my life so audio quality has a high value to me. Good tunes along the way keep my head in a happy place!
