I'm looking to get some high quality component speakers for my '05 G35x sedan. I do not have the bose system. I'm only looking to spend $200-$300 on the speakers. Anyone have any suggestions? Here are the ones I'm considering so far (sort of in order):

Rainbow: Power Line CMX 265 ($300)Morel: Tempo 6 ($240)Diamond Audio: M661 or D661 ($200-$230)Focal: Polyglass 165 V1 or V2 ($230)Boston Acoustics: SL60 ($225)Image Dynamics: CXS64 ($360)CDTAudio: CL62 ($250)Infinity: Kappa ($230)

I might also consider JL and Audiobahn. I think I'm ruling out the MB Quart 'cause a lot of people complain the tweeter's too sharp. Dynaudio, Hertz, and Seas seem too expensive.

A lot of people say it depends on your music tastes and your specific car. I listen to music like Postal Service, House (Milk & Sugar, Miguel Migs), Dave Matthews, Beasties, some hip hop (Notorious), and some jazz (Dizzy Gillespie, Sonny Rollins). Any suggestions for speakers for this kind of music?

Thanks!

Get an hearing test and post the graphs for both ears at 10db spl intervals, then we can determine the speaker for your ears.

I'm somewhat kidding but this is the only accurate way to determine with precision accuracy.

Human ear sensitivity vs frequency is different for every individual and declines with age starting with the higher frequencies first. People who listen to high levels of sound lose high frequencies faster and men hear differently from woman of the same age.

They make equalizers so you can correct for your ears.
