Never heard their speakers, just heard their amps in use. Hifonics was one
of the first and prominent in the car audio scene, they had a cult following
and their gear was priced to match the following.

They fell off the face of the earth then seemed to come back with more
inexpensive stuff. The amps seem good but god-only-knows who builds the
speakers.

Another company that's cool to find "diamonds in the rough" is Cadence,
check them out if you are amp shopping.

Yes, and all their amps were named for Greek gods and other characters in
Greek mythology. Now how cool is that? Much more cool than just numbers
and letters.

I've been a hifonics fan since I got into car audio back in the early
90s. I only have experience with their amps though. They always seem
to me to have a good price/performance ratio. I havn't checked their
prices lately though.

The best thing to do is to find a place that will let you listen to
their speakers first.
