[QUOTE="Hedo, post: 6400817, member: 614515"] I am running the older polk MM set right now. The tweeter is pretty smooth. The midbass seemed to be lacking but as they break in they are coming around and developing a bit more each day. I broke them in with about 60w rms but have since started putting 100w rms to them and they are starting to come alive however at higher listening volumes with this power the tweeter does start to shreek just a bit. I am sure with a little eq work they can sound pretty good but i am running everything flat right now to see how they sound natural. The answer is not bad but as i said before the tweeter starts to shreek just a bit and i feel the mid range becomes a little muddy as the volume goes up. I listen to mostly heavy metal for your musical reference point. For me these are just temporary speakers to get me buy while i start working on a true build for this vehicle. Current specs Alpine 9885 Polk Momo 6.5" components MB Quart Pab2100 Future build will be like this: Eclipse 7200 mkll Zapco reference 200 running a pair of Hybrid audio L4's ( custom kick panels ) Zapco reference 350 running 2 pair of Peerless 6.5" mid bass in each door I haven't decided on the low end yet but i am leaning this way. Zapco reference 1000.1 running 1 Image dynamics 12" IDMAXX or Zapco reference 500m running 2 image Dynamics 10" IDQ's or some other direction i haven't thought of yet! When i auditioned the diamond stuff i just didn't like how it sounded for my musical taste. I have heard really good things about the Image Dynamics components but i haven't heard any myself but i do feel they are in a different league than the diamond and polk stuff ( what i have anyway) as far as sound quality goes. Hope that helps a bit! [/QUOTE]
