CDT CL-61 Question.

Hi, I'm having a hard time deciding between these(CDT CL-61) and the Focal 165A and the Focal 165V for about $40 more. I'm looking for more midbass/midrange than anything else. I usually don't have a problem with hearing the highs since the stock location of the tweeter is in the pillar. I usually listen to trance and house music but occasionally hip-hop. Thanks.

I'm going to have them running off a Soundstream 405s amp.

BTW I've never heard any of these before but have heard the Focal Coaxials and the MB Quart Coaxials and definately like the Focal a lot better. This should give you a frame of reference of what I'm looking for.

 
So... would you think anyone would bother a box that looked like this sitting on your porch while you were at work? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

It is a good thing that I (a.) live in a good neighborhood and (b.) get home from work fairly early in the afternoon. The Zeb just shipped it right in a big ole CDT box for the whole world to know what it was. Grrrrr.

Anyway, here's what was inside...

Can't wait to make some adapter plates (6x8 -to- 6.5) and install them in my car this weekend. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Originally posted by avistar23 Yeah he put them in i dont know his opinion on them tho.
i think they sound amazing! this is my first component set, and it is worlds better than what i had b4 (of course...5.25" sony coax 3 ways of my HU.) ANYWAY, imo they sound much better than any of the components i have heard at local shops around here...x-cept maybe the top of the line JL 3 way comps. I have been missing out on sooo much sound, the hi-hats, crashes, and all cymbals in my rock music are crystal clear...i never heard some of them before! (partially b/c stock speakers are at your feet) The mid is powerful, and contributes/matches well with the amazing tweeter! by far, the best component set in it's range...at the $150 discount price. If they still have them, i believe this set beats the infinity kappa's(which i listened to sunday at a shop, finally) This is a nica all around component set...and has adjustable tweeter levels in the crossover(-3db/0db/+3db) I still have some fine tuning to do, but i love them already. peace

I've had a lot of unexpected projects come up this week which have in turn kept me from doing jack **** with my CDT components. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif I hope to install them over the holiday weekend.

Might be the 3/4" - better off-axis response and/or sensitivity could lead to a brighter sounding tweeter. I'm not sure why they recommend moving...

I guess the new version is the HD-M6+

What also helps is the suspensions on them aren’t as tight as a virgin on prom night! Sorry I couldn’t resist using this joke 🤣
