Upgrade on new internals. Suggestions?

kk listen, ur lookin at a price range of 200-300, why not treat urself with a pair of rainbow speakers, maybe Rainbow CS265.25 Germanium or the RE xxx 6.5 component set( heard that they have a nice bassy sound to em) these are pure quality and will spread themselves ova da whole range of sound. no problems. i got myself da slx series which r a little under these but they sound wicked, and im expecting that these will sound even better.

if u want a very high end set then there is nothing past MOREL. these r da best, period! but they r expensive

Yes, Rainbows are nice.  Yes, Morel's are nice (although they are NOT necessarily "the best."  There is no such thing as the 'best" and I would put several comp sets in the same category as anything from Morel.)  But hey, Jeff said $200 to 300, not $600 to $1000.

For something in your price range, listen to some Diamond D660, Oz Matrix, MBQ PCE, Focal Polyglass, Infinity Kappa... I'm sure there are others that sound equally nice.  But like I tell everyone, listen and buy what sounds good to you.

I was born in Hannibal, and moved to Cameron chasing a job for a year before I joined the Navy.  I've lived all over the US and in a couple of other countries, but been here in the SF Bay area of N. California now since '79.

CDT comps with the silk domes tend to have a pretty neutral high end and punchy midbass.  I intend to install these into my wife's car when they arrive, so I'll let you know what I think, for what that's worth!  :)
