Default Finally got my Rainbows installed!!!!!

Oh man, they're awesome. I landed some Rainbow Dreamline 6 1/2" components for $150 shipped.



Now I just need to build/install my amp rack and install my sub and bass amp and my system will be complete and exactly the way I want it, loud, clean, and crisp. I finally figured out where it will go so I will begin the design phase of it this weekend. Hopefully it comes out as nicely as I hope. I'll post up a pic when it's done, now that I have a digi cam

I was really impressed with the sound of even the lowest line rainbows on a soundboard. It was a though choice between the alpines and the rainbows. I just got a better deal on the alpines Nice choice.

They've been around for quite some time - at least two years. They are distributed in the United States by Arc Audio....

I haven't listened to the different lines, im a baller on a budget so I had to stay within my price range. And these were well within that range and I had heard great things about em so I jumped on em and rest is history. Awesome sound quality, I couldn't be happier. Well, actually, if I had my HX2 thumpin' in the trunk that'd be the icing on the cake.

Interesting. I've been out of the scene for a while. I come from a time when MB Quart Q's and Diamonds were the absolute SHIT. I have JL XR525's in my Civic. I'll be looking to get some new components here soon, what would you all reccomend?

What's wrong with horns??!?!!?

If you had to stick to conventionals....I don't know, I guess Rainbow Platinums, maybe the new Alpine Revalator set, but something that's pretty affordable - I'd say the DLS Iridium 6.3 or 8.3 seem pretty darn tempting.
