Honestly I'd rather take my money and go buy the 40th anniversary edition Memphis M3 subs (gold plated basket) They're only like $500 a pop.

That's right, they won't warranty product sold online. You can find a local dealer here though.

haha, They are supposedly nice speakers, but IMO if your gonna drop cash like that on speakers, you need to drop the cash to get an expert to set it up so you get the most out of them.

With the diy speakers around, I couldn't seem myself ever paying that type of money on a component set. or the what...6K that it's retailing for...

The crossover rocks!

I would rather buy a nice 94 SE for that price.

My friends shop in North NJ deals memphis. It is a OK brand IMO

I love my polk DB10, 7 years old and it still rocks... best $150 I ever spent... just need to find another one to run 2ohms


Those focals... amazing... sensitivity of 89dB, 100W RMS for almost $3k... must have incredible sound quality, especially since they don't get super loud as they peak out at ~110dB (200W peak power)...

I could see buying $3k speakers for a home theater setup, but not for a mobile setup... Home speakers don't have to content with road noise or take as much abuse (hot/cold, moisture, etc) as mobile speakers...
