the only thing that is new about my front end so far is the rainbow 4" are out of the A pillars, and the RF is in. Im still waiting on the rest of the puzzle to be delivered

After seeing the price of the Rainbows (to replace a blown 4") and hearing the new RF's, i cant believe anyone would pay that much. I mean im looking at the Rainbow and im trying to figure out just what is better about it then any other decent speaker out there. Does it move different? not really.....does it sound better then the RF, no, not to me anyway. Same thing with the Focals. I dont have a ton of experience with them, i know people that run them, and to be honest, i dont get the hype with those either. I think if your trying for an SQ system, imaging, soundstage etc is probably more important then brand.....in fact its not probably its a fact. I heard the WORLD famous Jerry Soo-hoo's older Toyota SQ car - no joke, it has a set Sony mids/highs up front and that is IT (besides a 10 or something in the trunk) and it sounded amazing.

So anyway i know you dont need a lecture and im not tryin to give you one im just saying i think people dwell on name brand mids and highs more then they should....not saying get SHIT mids and highs, but i think any REPUTABLE brand could give a high priced brand a run for their money, especially if both sets are properly tuned (and placed of course)

Nah Steve I totally get you on that. That is exactly what I wanted to hear actually. I know you had rainbow mids up there and such and if you went to RF and really didn't notice a difference then I doubt I would either. I would imagine they look better on a RTA or someone with extremely picky hearing but I know what you mean. I could get 5 sets of speakers for around the same price and have a great sound stage. Thanks for your input and no you weren't lecturing me I love the harsh truth
