    OA seems to be the new product Wow sight and sound are selling.
    I had a look at them and they seem ok, id prob go Kicker over them for the same price range (not the KX series).

    I always love Soundstream for my fronts, a pair of 6.5's of the comp series and you will never go back.

    just my 2c.

    Option audio has come up a few times on this forum with some mixed opinions. Look, it's like any other entry level gear really. If your spending $150 on speakers, then they are going to sound like $150 worth of speakers.

    I chose an Option Audio amplifier to run my fronts, but that's because in my opinion there's not enough audible difference with amplifiers, to the point where a better quality amplifier would outweigh the gains of spending more on the speakers instead.

    Some have mentioned build quality issues, but with any brand your going to find stories both good and bad. All you can do is listen to the speakers you have in mind on a display board, and if possible try to compare them with similar priced components.

    Remember if you are listening on a display board, ask that the rest of the components used during the test (head unit, amplifiers ect) are on par with what you currently have, or are looking to spend. Don't listen to a $150 set of speakers being fed a signal from a $1000 head unit, because their will be a difference.
