Need some advice here.

I have finally narrowed down my choices on components.

either a) infinity kappa perfect 6.5 comps,
b) alpine type x comps
c) diamond d661 comps.

i have more then enough power on tap for any of them, but can not demo any for myself. which would you guys recommend for a guy that likes loud but good quality music. i feel like any of them will sound good, but more concerned about how loud they can get while still sounding good. any input would be great.

What's your budget?

What's your budget?

about $210 us shipped to canada. thats what i can get type x for, being the most expensive one on the list. i take it you have other sugestions? new only though.

Is that the D661S or D661A you're looking at?

^ Not a bad deal. I auditioned those exact speakers, but liked the Polk MMC6500's better (more midbass and tweeters seemed to blend better). I ended up going with Type X's in the long run, though.

Tough call.

what sub stage are you running? does the type x keep up well? i am more inclined to buy the perfects, or x's. both are within $10. never heard a bad thing about either.

If you click the gain setting link in my sig, you'll know exactly what I run and how much power. And yes, they keep up nicely.

havent heard the diamonds or alpine. but from experience the perfects are freekin awesome. i have rainbows (sounds great maybe i need to go active) now but dont like them as much as infinitys.
