[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8864115, member: 689267"] The 65s/20.2 has a .75" tweeter which will have a wider dispersion pattern but they are also rated to take less power. the [URL='https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/sets/hd/hd65s262.php']CDT Audio HD-65S/26.2[/URL] can handle more power and the difference in the dome dispersion pattern is not all the significant at all considering how close one is to the tweeter. Go with the 26.2 IMHO. Keep in mind that the RMS rating is at above 110Hz, most 100 watt RMS rated speakers will take a lot more power with a x-over point that high. Compare efficiency ratings, that is going to be a better spec to factor in. These pioneers crossed over at 110hz will most likely match the output of the CTD's, so would many others. I like the CTDs but I'm not fan of ratings that stipulate you have to cross them at 110hz to attain that rating.
