Diamond Audio s500a vs Focal Polyglass 130v1 vs Alpine Type X SPX-13REF

I'm looking at a new 5.25" Comp set to put up front in a custom kickpod. Looking for something that will go well with my 8" Kickers that are located in the front doors.

I'm torn between the sets listed in the title, I've never heard any of them in person and would like some opinions.

Thanks!

I had the type X SPX's in that size and they could be a sweet set, just hope you know how to make them shine. I was lost with them and could never get them to sound right. They have so many crossover pts. I recommend them if you can set/tune well, otherwise go with another set. The Diamonds sound very nice and the Focals I haven't heard.
