has anyone compared these to either the kenwoods or infinitys at less than $100.00 ?

No I haven't done any comparisons. But I will say for the money it's hard to beat a fosgate sub. I'm very happy with mine.

Tough question...These are very solid and seemingly well built speakers. On the other hand $6 each seems cheap. I didn't get the warranty. I believe in the quality Infinity. By the way. They sound great.

I don't know about the Infinity's, but I will tell you that I love the Polk Audio's. They almost sound just as good as a home stereo. In my opinion you will not go wrong with the Polk Audio speakers

I have two which were about the price of a "brand name". I'm very pleased and my house would not be able to withstand anymore bass. Totally satisfied for the price. Good value.

I bought them for 12.99 which may have been an error. They are pretty good quality for that price but not sure at 199. I use them a lot and have had no problems with them. They set kind of jumbled in the holder but still look nice and work very well.

Well, if you're referring to the $100 price tag, I'm gonna say they're legit. They've been at that price point for quite some time. However, I wouldn't recommend these headphones if you care about sound quality.

If you go with the Tusq, there will be more sustain there. Warmer sound I would check out a Planet Waves Ebony wood w/pearl inlay set which we also have. They are 19.99 . If you would like to order that you can call the store at 856-384-2725 and I can manually place the order for you.

Slight advantage to the Oshlun over the Freud 208, mainly due to having more teeth. The Oshlun isn't quite as clean as the DW/Delta 7670 though, which tends to run a bit higher in price. Any of those will have significantly better performance than the $30-$50 sets from Avanti, HF, Mibro, Vermont American, Promax, and others. However, none of these entry level sets do as well as the premium sets from Infinity, Freud, Forrest, Systimatic, Ridge Carbide, etc @ $200+, mainly due to the design and quality of manufacture...there really is a notable difference, but the better ~ $90+ sets can be "good nuff". It all boils down to need, usage, economics, and priorities.

Have not compared these. Still feel the way the posts insert into the earpiece is weak and prone to break(both sides broke on my daughter's set). We replaced this headphone with the Sennheiser Momentum On-Ear ($230)and the Bang and Olufsen BeoPlay H6 ($399) and have been happy with both. Hope this helps.

Well for the price the KRK's are a solid choice if you're on a budget. But there is definitely better. These give a pretty warm low end tone and isn't so flat. AKG's I know work really well but don't have first hand experience. Pretty confident those are going to be my next headphone purchase once these wear out. (And they're getting there)

There may be....i am conditioned to think that 20 bucks more means something a bit additional, perhaps. Maybe the other model has a bigger sound.....however, maybe they are essentially the same. If you find any info, please let me know. Thanks!

I have NOT used a 100. My educated "guess" would be, owing to the feature set in particular (SBM, et al) that the edge would go to the newer, slightly "beefier" 100. That being said, I'm not sure that in a familiar environment, under ideal conditions, anybody would find telling the two apart would be particularly easy. It's an equivocal attempt at an answer, but I suspect the real question is "Is the 100 worth difference in price?" Only you can divine that answer for yourself. Shop carefully, don't pull the trigger on anything that does not have a generous return option and (if possible) audition them side by side.....

i had some infinity kappa's before they were so harsh on my ears, the polks actually sound so good i'm thinking about replacing the phoenix gold rsd components in my other car with them.

I matched them up to my Kenwood and they really sound great. All speakers are pretty much generic in their build and if this unit is normal powered, I'd say yes, they'll sound fine.

Through personal experience I've really come to like the shure sm57 due to the sturdiness and clarity that in can provide. It's also extremely versatile so there's more bang for your buck! I believe they run about $100 but you can find one on music go round for about $70 or $80

I bought a pair of Infinity's P163 speaker. They easily fill our little living room / kitchen with great sound.

I looked this up for you and couldn't find many comparisons. I just found this guy's youtube video on headfi. http://www.head-fi.org/t/629433/new-sony-extra-bass-mdr-xb600-mdr-xb800-unboxing-videosEven so, you should try seeing if you can find more comparisons or wait until more come out to have more opinions as the guy in the video may not be 100% reliable (also, they guy said that he didn't burn them in yet). Unfortunately that my take some time.
