Hey, I like the idea! I've got a HXD2 as well! LOL
The question is, which $150 pair of speakers do we use?

QUOTE (RMA @ Feb 6 2010, 01:22 AM) My only regrets are:
Selling Fudd an amp (for a fraction of the real price) that had been returned by Autobarn Geelong which had been incorrectly used by AB Geelong and turned out to be faulty when Fudd started using it.
Whilst he was given a new amp after it could not be fixed, he never acknowledged any of the assistance given and bitches to this day about it.

I don't think it is a good idea
Add-ons like, EQ and dynamic (spectral/colour) correction, fully custom mounting - no limits there on spending either
you could spend big $$, and the results would show.
or, for the same money, just buy better speakers in the first place.
I guess what I am trying to say is that you can polish a turd if you gold plate it first.

I think it's a good idea, but just use a readily available $50 set so even us poor bums can get into it 
Hell i'd be in on it, i'd just make a suitable box for them, shove em in my boot and hook em up to the amp on the day and "voila".
Sure don't expect to win anything, specially considering I don't have any "high end" gear, but would be fun.

Well, as an opener suggestion, I think I could arrange a group buy of Jaycar kevlar 6.5-inch splits for $150 per pair of thereabouts. Hey, they aren't the last word on SQ but for the money they can be made to sound quite good.
Any other suggestions?

Sure, using jaycar splits sounds good to me.
I have an older pair spare atm
Saves me some dosh.
Be funny after the comp, seeing an influx of jaycar splits on the 2nd hand market.

Hey Daniel old mate...Hows it going. Hows everyone gonna compete. Were all in different parts of Australia and your in NZ. The trip would blowout us spending our $150 on speakers? Good idea though!!!
If you buy a new GM Holden and drive it into a wall, do you go back to Holden for a WARRANTY ? So why do they try it with a burnt woofer ?
Some say if a car/install was a turd, if you mould it and shape it into something great. They say its still a turd. I must be a turd polisher then!!!
