How does this sound to you guys??---
I went to HiFi Buys and they said that a good speaker for me would be the JL Audio TR650CXi. It's supposed to be a good full range speaker (i'm not getting subs amp etc.) They had them for 140. But I found them for 105 on a few sites, and for $90 on onlinecarstereo.com.
Is this site any good, and the speakers online are TR650CX(with no "i" on the end). So are the speakers good?? Site good?? and the model the same??
Thanks Guys

 

I actually work for a sister company of HIFI Buys called Tweeter out here in so cal. First off JL Audio does NOT sell their product on the internet.

Purchasing JL AUDIO Products via the Internet

With e-commerce expanding like wildfire, we get many requests asking if JL AUDIO products are available for purchase via the Internet. The short answer is yes, but these Internet retailers are not authorized, endorsed or guaranteed by JL AUDIO.

As a company, we put a tremendous amount of effort into training our authorized dealers to provide you, the end-user, with valuable advice and installation expertise. With automotive speaker systems, the importance of quality system design and installation is paramount. For that reason, we do not believe that Internet retailers can provide the level of service we feel our customers deserve and we do NOT authorize any dealer to sell product via Internet or Mail Order.

JL AUDIO products purchased from unauthorized sources carry no warranty from JL AUDIO, regardless of any claims made by the seller. We have no way of determining whether these products are used, refurbished, counterfeit, stolen or otherwise compromised. Furthermore, many unscrupulous retailers attempt to remove factory serial numbers in order to avoid detection. In the process, the speaker's ability to reliably reproduce sound is often destroyed.

As a customer, you should value the opportunity to audition products and receive face-to-face service from people who will be there for you after the sale. For that reason, we encourage you to support your local, authorized bricks and mortar JL AUDIO retailer. They have made a commitment to personal service and selection that no Internet retailer can match.

Look for the Authorized JL AUDIO Dealer plaque at your dealer. You may also search our Dealer Finder to locate dealers in your area.

JL has a great line of speakers out this year...get the speakers at HIFI Buys

Just my .02c

that little 'i' that youre referring to...that means that it has the updated tweeter...more accurate, and sounds better. without the i, you are talking about the OLD version.
