Best comps for metal/rock >$200

[JohnnyChuttz 10+ year member]

I demo'd the Crystals, the Diamonds above and countless others. I went with the Crystals. All I listen to is rock and metal and for me the Crystals sounded the best.

I think someone said in one of the Crystal threads that the Comp set was designed for rock music.

With death metal wouldn't you just need a pair of loud coaxials.??//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

wow,someone actually had Crystals on Demo...thats awsome

Speakers aren't necessarily designed for 1 genre of music but

the crystals will get the job done for rock and or rap as a good speaker

makes any tyoe of music sound good.

Good choice,just get a beefy amp to power them up and you'll be

golden !

i heard crystal's sound was compared to the k2p.. which makes it a harsh set.

I wouldn't say the Crystals sound harsh, but very clear and loud.

A friend of my soon to be brother in law has them in his Camaro.

Mine will be here tomorrow!

that was an ignorant statment........//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

they are so far from being harsh its not even funny

and whats a k2p anyways?

 

[jacka 10+ year member]

how is that an ignorant statement when that IS actually something that i've heard from someone on here? and if you did you looked around a bit, the k2p is about a 400 dollar focal set, which makes the sscs6 a good set if it is compared to the k2p, if you like that kind of sound. have i heard k2p's? yes.

And what does that have to do with speakers.?? A coxial is pretty much a mid bass with a tweeter so how is it so different.

MANY coaxials don't enjoy lots of midbass at high volumes.
