Oh, really? Haha, good to know. I won't even attempt to try them.

I'm still unable to make up my mind. I've read reviews, specs, articles, etc. and I just feel like I'm going to make the wrong decision. The thing is, I want a good set of components but I really don't want to spend over $300 because I also need to buy dampener and wire and a couple other things. And I really don't want to go over $500 for everything. The local stores definitely want more than that for the good stuff.

So, I'm seeking advice and opinions from you all, if you don't mind.

If you were to purchase a component set for $300 or less, which set would you chose? I will gladly purchase through an online dealer if that's where I can get a good set for that price. As long as their reputation is good.

Feel free to call me out on the noobie boobie questions. ( . )( . )

Thanks guys.

Check the FS section for what Im considering...

Im not sure on the Cadence comps... $170 shipped for a $520 set seems like a steal. Going tonight to a dealer to have a quick look- if they have any...lol

$170? Holy cat poo! How is that even possible?

Someone must have hacked their site on April 1st or sumthin'.

No its legit.

I got'um! There's no going back now boys. I bought the SPX-17REF 6.5" components. I'll try and have them in by the end of the weekend.

I need to thank you guys for helping make the proper decision. I wasn't even going to buy components a couple weeks ago. I was going to go with two way 5x7's. Man, I'm glad I read up on the facts here. I'm pumped now. I don't regret spending the money at all.

Look decent. What did they run ya?

I'm definately glad to see you went with the comps over 5x7"s... And I know you'll notice a difference
