help me decide on a set of comps

[victorious]

I want to get some 6.5 comps. I've been doing a lot of searching on this site. And I've kinda narrowed my options down to several choices. I listen to all types of music, but mostly classical, r&b, gospel, and hip hop. Which of these speakers do you guys think I should get. I know I should listen to them myself, but unfortunately I don't know any place that actually carries them.
Ok, enough with the rambling and on to the choices:

1.) Diamond M6

2.) A/D/S 236is

3.) Boston Acoustics SL60

4.) Orion P6.2

5.) DLS MS6

6.) AVI BSM (depending on the price quote I get for them)

7.) CDT EF-61CFi


As you can see my prince range is around $200. Can you please help me choose help make a decision on which speaker would be best for me.

TIA

IMO..
MS6> EF's ( ive heard them)
I might have heard the Bostons, but i cant remember

Thanks for responding supa_c.

Hopefully some of the other members who've heard the other comps will step up and voice their opinion.

:help:

Ive only really heard JL and Focal.

[Expy2000]

The DLS's MS6, heard them as well, which is what made me buy the Iridiums. But... I do like the Focal Polyglass line, but it they would cost just a couple more $$$.

jl vr 6.5" comps for 250-280 retail have amazing SQ and midbass output

[audiolife]

avi's are schweeeeeeet. hard to come by around the states though. i dont think you would find much better if any better midbasses than whats in those sets.

[victorious]

Hey audiolife from the reviews I've read and heard AVI's are sweet. I just may not be able to afford them. I did find a company that sells them, and I'm waiting for them to send me a price quote.

[audiolife]

yuh i had avi 5 1/4 in mid basses to go with my id horns. very strong speakers

[amedeuce]

I'll let you know how my rainbow soundlines sound when I get them :)

[victorious]

Hey ameduece, how much did those Rainbows cost you?

Hey ameduece, how much did those Rainbows cost you?

279.00 plus shipping and tax = around 300.00

i cant believe no one thought about infinity or mb quart. i have the kappa's and they sound great. i've heard mb quart refence and they sound just as good! either set is on ebay for under $200.
