Which are good 6.5 Components???????

Like the tittle says what are good components out there , I do not mind spending a lot I want quality.

What do you think about Alpine Type R's in 6.5, Focals and so fourth, please advise me to more knowledge. I have an Alpine 9853, deck and an MRP-T220 amp just for speakers, so what components would you reccomend for my setup?

Thanks for all your inputs.

Focal makes some kick **** speakers. Working on a no holds barred Jeep Commander right now with 5 1/2 pairs of them in it all in the Poly Kevlar series. Sky is really the limit when it comes to components, all depends on your budget and of course the integrity of the install.

Thumbs up

/\ What he said.....

I picked up a set of the Focal 165V1 components for my wife's minivan last month, and we are both really impressed with the sound. If you don't mind driving down to Burlington, Radioactive is selling them for $399 while they last....

They have a set in the demo board in the showroom, and if you take a CD with you you will be able to check them out with material you are familiar with....

Focal Utopia or MB Quart QSC/QSD 6.5 components.

Oh thought I would add Polk Audio SR6500. Heard these are very good speakers. Flatter response than the Focals or MB Quart.

Ascendant audio and mpyre audio have nice looking 6.5" speakers. They have 11mm and a 14mm x-max, impressive. They are like $199 US to order online. I'm gonna try the mpyre 652C 6.5" component set when I save up.
