Thanks C_P_W

They look interesting. The "real" crossover inspires confidence. But speaker sound is such a subjective thing (within limits), that I am very reluctant to pop for something that I haven't listened carefully to. That's why the Alpines are on the list. I wouldn't have considered them to be in the short list of candidates until I heard them. And I didn't like the Infinity Kappas as well as I thought I would.

Thanks again
