Searched around, didn't see anything....
A new set of components just showed up here courtesy of our PG rep (my old boss), so I figger I'll toss them into the car and see whats up with them. I was trying to get my hands on some TiElite components, but much to my dismay, they are NLA, so these were offered instead. Outward impression? They look very nicely built, crossover has a decent component count and size, woofer is very beefy with composite cone, double roll surround, nice terminals, etc.
Seeing as it may be a while until I can actually get these thngs into the car, I was wondering if anyone has actually heard these things and have any constructive reviews of them.
Oh.... HSK 165 is the model#

Looks like they are sold by Audison as their entry-level brand.  A well-respected company who would not handle crap.  Are they made in Germany or somewhere else?  I have never seen nor heard them but I'd be interested in your opinion.

From what I figuRED / deciphered they are made in Italy (only manual options are English and Italian). Very nice construction quality, looks very robust, I was surprised. I've never really heard of them either, but if they are tied in with Audison, they are probably pretty decent. Last time I remember, Audison didn't take any crap either.....
