Oh yeah, just remembered! Focal are bringing out some new stuff.
get ready for the 165K4s! 2x 6" mids, 1x4" mid, and 1" tweeter. If you want to go mental, then get these, they would make some great doorbuilds/kickbuilds.

Diamond hexes are really good quality too. If your planning to spend £500 on components, do some research, look around. There are alot more good speaker makes than Focal and JL. Ive got the 165K2s, but if I was buying another set, I'd either go for
Rainbow,
Boston acoustics
Focal Utopias
Diamond hexes

Go to your local Ice dealers and see if theyve got any you can listen to. I doubt you'll find the BA and rainbow, but believe me these speakers are the best you can get. Spend as much as you can afford to on them, so you neer have to upgrade them again. And dont forget, to get these speakers to their very best, you need a good amp, head unit and wires. Hope this helps

focal jmlab technical dept. said that the utopia 2 ways were better than the polykevlar 3 ways, both same price so not trying to make bigger profit from more expensive speaker.

Set-up correctly with proper deadend builds which are angled and positioned correctly a 3-way set-up will win EVERY time! Not assuming you are a fool but you will do door-builds wont you if youre forking out that amount of cash? In which case shove the 3-ways in their. PROPER SQ...;)

Focal's IMO :D

I heard both and whichever choice will be a good one, but the Focal's just edge it for me.

I've had the JL XR 650 CSi's in my car, and they were too bassy. I am now on a set Focal Polykevlars and they are spot on.


I love them :D

not ever heard the JL's, but focal are fcuking amazing

The JL components top range XR's go for £380 and they are top class. I have them in mine, amp them up and they just SING.

Wicked speakers really

Steve.

Which ones do you lot think i should get? anyone got any of them? Ive heard the JL 3 ways are fantastic but at £500 are a little bit pricey, but the Focals are still £360 is it worth spending the extra little bit!!!!
