Quality Components under $150?
I've been looking on ebay and there seems to be a bunch of components for under $150 including shipping. Is it possible to find quality for under $150. I will be sending 100 watts RMS to whatever component set I get, or I could run active with 50 watts to each separate component, but will probably use the passive crossover. If you have any recommendations, please share. I'm open for suggestions. I thought about giving Don a call, but I know I will end up spending more than I want to spend.

I would still call Don, you never know what he may have for sale used or traded in.....
BTW, Rainbow SLC's would do the job if you could step your budget up some....

I was going to mention also, maybe look at some used stuff.
I bought my Profis used for 280 bucks....
Heck, my whole stereo is pretty much used stuff, otherwise I would be running cheap crap if I bought it all new

BestNTx,
That was same question in an earlier post. I have fosgate 5x7s but wanted to upgrade to better quality, not that the fosgates are bad, just wanted more sound.
As I stated before, if anyone can suggest a good set, it would really help in the decision making.
By the way who is Don??? I'm kind of new to posting and asking questions on the forum. Never had much time. Too much work and not enough down time.
Thanks again guys.

As to the topic at hand .. as I stated in your email ... the SLCs will please both your ears and pockets for years to come. Looking at the majority of your listing, I see an 'upgrade' from some of those in the near future ultimately resulting in larger expenditures.
