Focal Polyglass components aren't that great. Focals high end stuff is nice, low end stuff sucks.

I'd save my money just a touch more and get those PG Ti Elite components-they're built and designed by Morel. Excellent components.

Boston sets are nice-the newer Pro50 components should suit you. I wouldn't go with anything lower from them personally, though. Bostons tend to have a characteristic sound the people either love or hate, if you have a nearby Tweeter, Hifi-Buys,or other subsidiary try to go listen to a set before you jump.

Others in that price range worth considering are JL XRs and the MB Quart Premiums.

casey if you want the xr's then i suggest you getting the 3 ways. i've heard the xr 3 ways and they sound much better and different then the xr 2 ways. that is if you know how to do a good job of installing. i wanted 3 ways one time and jonathan told me they are hard to setup so i would be better off with just the 2 way.

Vehicle dependant. 3 ways are more difficult to implement in certain vehicle types. Generally, if you can't/don't want to do kick panels, you'll probably do better with 2 ways. The XRs have a rather higher crossover frequency to the midrange from the midbass driver, for that reason you'll want to keep them close together. 3 ways are nicer if setup correctly, though.

I posted that for somebody a while back :-)

Vifa makes great raw drivers-it'd be every bit as good as stuff costing much more than that.
