THE BEST AUDIO SPEAKER

[Alien Mantis]

And while we are still on this subject:

FOCAL "Utopia Be" has got to be the most overpriced stuff I ever seen.

What some people fail to understand is, there are only so many ways/materials you can build a speaker/amp/crossover with. Once you use the very best materials and engineering, where do you go from there?

Is that $1,500 FOCAL sub going to play so much nicer than a JL W7 ?
Nah. Maybe slightly different, and in some cases, the JL might sound better. We all know so many other factors come into play when dealing with this stuff. So once you have good components and amps, it's the acoustics of the vehicle and other installation factors that will make the difference. Besides, it's all subjective. What sounds really good to one person, might not sound as good to the next person.
Sound is "art", and as with all "art", you got your "art snobs".

Do you really want to spend $4,000 on 1 set of component speakers when you can spend $2,000 on the whole car and make it sound like the sky is falling? At what point does it just become "spending money for the sake of spending money"?
Do you like bragging to other people that you spent $20,000 on your car stereo system?

Take your car to Will Castro at Unique Whips and let him LACE OUT THAT WHIP! REMY will tune that shit up for ya!
