[QUOTE="trumpet, post: 8032024, member: 628688"] Unless it's 4x6s* I never advise people to downsize to round speakers. You lose midbass response by dropping down to a smaller cone. If you're spending the money to get a 6.5" that moves a lot of air you're into 6x9 component territory. That myth about 6x9s being crap for sound quality needs to die. There are good 6x9s out there but you have to spend a bit more to get them. *an exception is if there's no easy way to cut out to fit 5.25s, then there are good 4x6 plate components to choose.
