I have a USamps Exterminator 100 watt amp, a Rockford Fosgate Punch 150, and Two 10 inch Cerwin Vega subs. I picked these up used. They're going into a 97 Ford Explorer. Budget is around $700 for both deck and speakers. |

Silver Member Username: JohammbassIRL Post Number: 608 Registered: May-06 | Yes, the Reference and the Competition series are very good, because they are made for Zapco by an Italian company - ESB. They have very modern motor designs so yes they would sound more accurate than Bostons and I hate to say it, but in linearity they would even beat the GT's. See, I love Morel and Dynaudio, but them boys have to upgrade their motors, cause they are falling behind some speakers that are cheaper. For example, the LINEAR coil travel on GT's is 6mm peak to peak, but on these guys: http://www.madisound.com/cgi-bin/index.cgi?cart_id=9838330.12218&pid=1044 it's 10mm peak to peak AND those are only 5.5" drivers compared to Dynaudio 6's |
