mb quart makes excellent comps with very strong midbass. if they are in your price range, I would highly suggest taking a listen to. Try to stay away from buying comps based on someones opinion, listen to them first..only your ears will know what sounds right to you.

Unfortanantly, he is in the same boat I was in, while stationed in Korea. Its not as easy to go check out stuf here, as it is in the states. Yeah we have a JL dealer that charges 1000 euro for a 12w7 ($1250) and and a few other options. But its hard to just go out listening for a day.

Well buy something higher end.

We all know the differences between silk dome and titanium domed tweets.

Given that fact pick out a system that suits your tastes and in your price range.

MB Quarts are always pretty good. So is the higher end Diamond. been hearing good things about the ARC Audio comps also... Rainbow, love mine

... CDT is good aswell... I really liked my coaxials (braxials really), they were warm and crisp... Especially for $100!

pretty much any decent brand and comp set in that price range should give you want your looking for. i myself run bravox but finding a dealer by you is like a needle in a hay stack. Dls very nice along with arc rainbow focal and i have heard cdt are suppose to be pretty decent too. also the 500 is for comps and an amp? cause that cuts your budget down pretty good. you could get a nice set of elevation audio comps too. the list goes on an on.

Yeah he was talking 500 for the comps and an amp. I told him to figure out what he wanted out of the sound. IE punchy or melow mid, bright or nuetral tweeter, and go from there. I sugested some of the JL or Elavation Audio components. I know he can get some of there mid range stuff for about 250 300 for the components. Or I should say, I am sure i can find him the JLs for that, and I know one of you won't mind hooking us up with some EAs.

OnYrMrk, I though about sugesting some of the low end focals too, but his tweets will most likely be off axis, So I was thinking about something with a better off axis responce.
