No one around me really sells decent marine audio equipment, so when I saw these online and in my local store, I thought it was too good to be true.

They seem to be the same as these (https://www.crutchfield.com/p_108622MLW ... e_speakers) just without the LED's, but that wouldn't make sense as to why they're so much cheaper. Has anyone used them and could give a rundown of them?

Thanks!

I haven't personally heard those speakers, but I know they are often recommended as some of the best marine speakers when it comes to bang for the buck. Infinity is a quality brand.

FYI, Amazon sells a version with the same specs but a different speaker grill for $69.

Infinity has always been a good brand and been very easy on the wallet. I don't think you would go wrong getting them. Pretty crazy that Crutchfield would charge that much more for the version with led's but I'm sure someone out there bought a pair.
