5.25" vs 6.5" components? Any difference?

[QUOTE="trumpet, post: 8407034, member: 628688"] We care about the lower end of the usable frequency range on our midbass or midrange speakers because they should not be crossed below Fs, or the resonant frequency, if you care about sound quality. Just because a 6.5" speaker, for example, can play 30 Hz doesn't mean it should ever be tasked to play that low in a vehicle when that is the job of a subwoofer. We have to play subs below Fs but our hearing is much, much more tolerant of distortion from bass than midbass on up. [/QUOTE]
