Hold up, a DA6213 for front speakers.........that would be a no to that idea there dude. While it most certainly can operate front speakers, with 250w x 2 into 4 ohms, to find a speaker that can safely handle that much power is not going to be easy. End result is blown speakers due to overpowering. This is a great amplifier but it is far happier being used to drive a sub or subs. If you want to match an amp to this one, see if you can dig up a PA5422 (4channel) or PA4122 (2channel) before they are gone forever as this entire line of amplifiers is now discontinued. (save for a couple of the sub amps but they are soon to be gone as well).

Good sounding speakers are highly subjective, we all hear different. That said I like the Eclipse component speakers, the y sound amazing to me. They are also built extremely good as well. (even our fearless moderator uses Eclipse components). If the speakers are in your budget, go for it, they will not dissappoint you.

Top Secret, I can tell you but then my wife will kill me.

I already have a DA7122 amp for the sub.I was hoping to find good power handling speakers and have the gains on the front amp turned down.Any opinions ?

Been looking around and there are quite a few speakers with the power ratings i need.Might go with CDT.Their HD 6,5 3 ways are rated at 300rms.
