Crutchfield kicks worth it?

I was thinking about putting some Custom Kick pannels, the ones from crutchfield for i think about $210 that hold 5 1/4 and a tweet, I like there look and the way the kickpannels sound compared to 4x6's. Also what speakers will sound the best in them. i was maybe thinking about saving a whole hell of a lot of money and getting the polk momos. but there kind of steep. thanks.

I had them and sold them. Took up too much space, heater core leaked and drip on the pass speaker , cheap construction. But they did sound better then dash speakers.

Make your own, they'll be smaller and cheaper, if they cost the same you've still come out ahead with better kicks. You can hold 6.5" with custom made.
