daytons are usually a safe bet for bang for your buck.

These are interesting for just that. I've thought about building a set because they look cool and are already optimized as near field monitors. I still might build a set and put my Rli8 and a plate amp with them. Fits your price range and application pretty well.

im almost set on thoes thoug im going to make them free standing or floor stand mount instead of wall mount and my enclosure wont be as fancy, maybe ported depending. How do thoes Aura's take to porting? say 0.5 @ 100Hz?

[///M5 2,833]

I can't answer on how the Aura's take porting, but I'd just add a little sub setup with it and call it sweet. Would be pretty easy to change later if you wanted more output.

Sub for deffanitly

1cuft@25Hz with a little 8" would go well with it.

Reading through he doesnt reccomend porting any of the drivers and he reviews the Hi Vi VS3 about the same as the Aura Sound NS3-193 and its cheaper.

So im looking at http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cf...tnumber=297-433 paired with http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cf...tnumber=275-030

with the provided Xover Schematic

Im not sure what i need for power... <10w per chanel should do fine. may solder my own.

Subtotal: $74.06

Xover parts and all...getting to be expensive.
