I haven't heard the top of the line Audiobahn's, but I'll stand by the quality of the HX2's.

Man my vote is for Audiobahn. Their top of the line speakers will kill the HX2's. The HX2's are a lot cheaper though.

i have an audiobahn alum 10" that bought, but now i am selling to a friend. personally, i didnt think the sound was as good as the hype. i have also heard alot of issues about the quality of the audiobahns. i have run JL w6s( in several applications), and now i will be running 2 10" solo barics. i would say go with the rockfords.
