    You'd probably have better luck getting answers to car audio questions in the "On The Move" section.

    Expensive and $350 are two different things :)
    Although I've never listened to the JBLs, they aren't exactly known for quality sound. Go with the Focals.

    Not exactly useless. I've heard more than a handful of Focals, and although they're expensive, they're generally pretty good product for the price range. I've heard other lines of JBL component products and they aren't that great, pretty crappy. Even most or all of Team JBL doesn't compete with JBL component products, so that has to raise a couple of questions. I've talked to someone from JBL before, and he suggested JBL non-car products for the front stage. Yet another blow against using their car speakers. Sorry I didn't expand upon my thoughts, but I didn't think it was necessary.
