Keep your eyes open, you may find a set of TFS 215's for sale by someone that needs the cash.

TFS 215's is my vote for when you can afford them. Budget and Heads shouldn't be in the same sentence unless big comes before budget. JMO.

Keep in mind how much power potential there is in a good set of heads vs some avg brand.
True. I mean I'm definitely still looking until I find what I really want
