Alpine Type R or Focal Access 6.5 Comps?

[Jason Brubaker 10+ year member]

Which ones are better for listening to mainly classic rock, and heavy metal with a little bit of rap thrown in?Will be run off of HU power for now. Ultimate goal is to run them off of about 75-100 watts rms. Will be using the coax's for rear fill if that makes a difference.

Thanks

Focal is a step above..no matter what line

I'd run the current Type-R comps over the current Access line, but I'd run the Polyglass or Type-X for only a little more money.

Listened to the Type R and Access comps today and liked both of them. Looked on the net and found that I can get Type X's for less than the Access. So now I am now thinking of just getting the X's. Forgot how much fun this was trying to decide on speakers. Now I am wondering what would be a good set of rear fills to complement the X's? Any suggestions?

Focals are a bit harsh up top.
