i was wondering what kind of components there are out there that have a very full and rich sound to them,  mayge a little bit of a harsh tweeter and some really good midbass, just overall sounding amaxzing

the only problem is that i do not want to break the bank with this so i was wondering what would be a good set but not cost that  much

Budget, what is it? Based on what you have said, money is the only concern (as usual) posted_image

There are TOO many to list, that would...break the bank. Let us hear what you WON"T spend.

You pay for good componets and what sounds good to me may sound like crap to you. Take some time and some music into your local car audio and try some speakers out.

So that would be a no to speakers like Morel, Eclipse and Focal...... The new Pioneer Premiere speakers look amazing. The Polk however, chances are that they are just another old run of the mill basic set of speakers that come out of some factory in Singakoreachinatiawanapore and badged with the Polk name on it (as is very common in this industry for a crapload of companies). There is a huge difference in speakers that come from a proper build house like Morels, Vifa's, Focals, as to compared to the sweatshops of the far east. This does not mean that all speakers that come out of the far east build houses are crap by any means, however, to compare them to a speaker like the ones that we here in the industry look upon as great speakers, well that is just not fair. If these are your front speakers and then they are the most important speakers, choose wisely young grasshopper.

You might consider looking at Focal's Access line. They are excellent sounding and very affordable.

The Eclipse speakers are more than decent. Cast aluminum baskets and darn good sound. Our fearless moderator uses the Eclipse component speakers bought from some Canadian guy........ I should also make mention of Macrom speakers. They should also be on a short list of finer speakers to choose from.
