I was looking at different companies to choose from and I noticed that hifonics had some pretty powerful speakers which surprised me how powerful they were. And then I checked out how much they cost and it surprised me too! They're all really cheap! For example I was looking at some 6x9 speakers and hifonics has some that are called ZXI693. They have 110 rms and 500 max and cost around $50? Seems too good to be true...

 

Yes, I have been using them for almost 2 decades, very good stuff. Of all the stuff I ever bought that old GenX 6.2C compo set still sounds the best. Where can you get them that cheap? Hifonics used to be quite expensive here (Netherlands), i remember paying a couple thou for a Zeus amp back many years.

 

I wasn't sure where to buy them so I just went to google shopping and they all came out pretty cheap. Here is exactly the link and the prices range from $45 to $70. Lol any other company would be a steal at $100 so I mean i thought there was something off about it

i dont have too much experience with their speakers, but their amps are A+

 

Those are all sh!tty coaxials....I never use those

 

Oh really why not? Just wondering I'm kinda new to this stuff and would like to learn

 

Well, simply compare a good composet to a coaxial w/ crossover filtering and you'll never want back. I just checked and the modern version of the GenX6.2 is called Maximus6.2C and they are 650 euros here, about 800$. There are a lot of other cheaper alternatives though.

 

Where did you find those? The only site that I could get much info on hifonics was
http://www.hifonicsusa.com/index.html
And I can't find them there. Plus what's the difference between compo and coaxial?

 

Maybe they're not for sale over there?

Component set is usually a 2 way set, a mid range speaker and a tweeter with a passive crossover to split the incoming signal to the 2 speakers. A coaxial has no such thing.

 

High end coaxials DO have crossovers,Look for example at Infinity kappas coax and Focal coax.

 

Okay well thanks guys I'll be sure to go with the hifonics component speakers instead of the coxial ones.
