kicker components ... any good??

Ive seen these on ebay:

and wondered whether they were any good? Ive had kicker components in the past and thought they were great although they did cost considerably more money. At the moment though i only have a budget of about £50

 

Or would it be worth my upgrading to 6.5" like these:

i have kickers and love em and just fitted them in my supra yesterday

 

ive got the pro range 6 1/2"s and they sound great with the tweeters n crossovers

 

but i also have a jlaudio set which sound even better imho

 

so if its budget then get the best for the money and my kickers cost me £280 trade so £50 is damn cheap

 

i would have to say the 3rd set on the list as they have an rms of 60 which is better than the others by the looks of it and its the rms you want

depends allot on what you are after, what type of set up do you want, are you a sound quality man or a bass head?.. or just some one after a general upgrade over standard, if just after a upgrade then spot on also should be sorted for loud set up like spl, but if your after SQ set up i would look at some other brands.
