Folks.... I heard a lot of thing about full range speakers, and I would to give it a try... need help to choose a good component to start with. All triks are welcome!!
You could try the Ciare CH250 in an open baffle. Easy to build and price/perfomance ratio is excellent....
here are a couple urls to begin doing some research. Most have links to additional sites.

The usual qualifications are needed to get a recommendation.
1. How much do you want to spend?
2. What brands are available to you?
3. What results are you expecting?
4. What degree of construction difficulty?
Clear mids, high frequency response, low frequency response, SPL, room size, type of music are all factors to be considered.
The best would be a beginning with Fostex speakers, not always the best but always one of the best, and affordable.
If you really want full range operation, choose the Fe167e or bigger, and if you have more money, the FX200 or F200A mounted in TL, Double BR or TQWT to get down to 30Hz.
If you are satisfied when you don't get under 40Hz, then try a TQWT or DBR with a 13cm speaker, like the Fe127e or the FX120.
Back loaded horns seem to work well but I never tried these enclosures.

Ok.. thanks to all for the replies, I saw that is very hard to find a really good component without spending a fortune.
I tried Ciare components (their farm is 15 Km far to me), generally they are very good, but I'm not satisfied with their full range speaker.

Just found, but I think they are crazy......
A pair of FF165K Full range + a pair of T90A tweeter + crossover = 1200 Euros !!!!!!!!!??????????
For you is a "normal" price?

Visaton B200 on an open baffle is a good one... and made in Europe (doesn't make it cheaper over there thou)
