I was in your shoes about going with the Focal or Hertz. I went with the Hertz Hi-Energy 165Xl. My sig shows what I have for audio & it sounds pretty effen clean. I have no regrets & I would definitely do it again.

OP if you get HSKs i hop you intend to amplify them because otherwise you will be sorely disappointed.

Both are great brands

Focal for brighter highs

Image dynamics and hertz for a smoother sound.
