speaker bedding as far as i was away, just means play on low volumes for a good period of time, then a lil louder , lil louder over and over to get the maximum performance out of them... with a good period of time being hours to days...

I have to say, these really are good. Better than my Inphase speakers I used to have anyways (of a similar price range, actually a tad more expensive)
My sub used to drown out my old speakers, now the treble is crisp at the higher volumes and compliments it nicely.
Very recommended! Cheers ash

any material that is subjected to movement/force will deform over a period of time, and that's what bedding in is all about really. It's real all right

i really want to know a true comparison between these and the spl 5.2's
ive been considering these two sets of components for a while and thought i made a decision but i just havent
i want to sell my 6x9's i have from my old car and then buy some components
i think the spl's will be better but are 70quid so should be and as said by ashleyp they are the most under rated comps. but i will be giving them 100w from my amp
will thaht still be good or should i run jbls with 100w ????

possibly the most stupid thing ive heard in my life
have you heard either set of components yet?
how can you say "i think its better because they cost more" without actually hearing either set of components?
yes imo the SPL's are better due to the powerful mid-bass they produce (providing you give them over 100wrms of power). but i have heard both sets and can make a valid comparison
sorry but that statement is just plain silly

Make your mind up kiddo, youre welcome to come over today and hear mine.
The JBLS will take 70W from your amp, SPL's 100W.
My JBLs are at 80W but your amp is cleaner than mine so *should* be a close-enough indicator
