New Alpine speakers...
Alpine's been advertising their new SPX 17PRO series speakers in every audio mag i've picked up:
they're supposed to have a slightly larger tweeter (1.5") to better fill the upper midrange gap between tweeter and woofer.
Anyone know when these are due to hit the stores?

I guess i'll wait a while.... I picked up both sets of my SPX 177r comps for $200 shipped. If i figure the same percent difference, i should be able to pick up the PRO model for around $350....as soon as they get a little more popular 
)
glad to see they're avalible now. I really like the Aluminum encased crossover network...surely beats out the plastic ones with the 177r series that tend to melt in the sun.

Oh good news, they're finally available in the states. The best price iv'e found is in the $350 range.

They certainly look cool and i'm thinking about upgrading my SPX 177r's for a couple sets. The Xovers feature heat syncs and a black face that look awesome.
