Germanium 265 vs 465

[Sonnick 10+ year member]

What are the differences? I hear about the Germaniums all the time and am 50/50 on these or the Diamond Audio Hex S600. I heard the Diamonds and they sounded crystal clear and I loved them, but I'm not sure which Germaniums (465 or 265) the reviews are talking about...??

Edit: I'm not looking to turn this into a Hex vs Germanium thread as there is one already. Just wanted to know the differences between the Germanium 265.25 and the 465.25. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

265=standard component set. 465= double midbasses per side. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif people are talking about the 265's...which I happen to own.

Ah! Makes my decision harder! haha. Only thing is I heard the Hex's and they sounded awesome...but all this about the Rainbows have got me wondering. It's about $100 difference, Hex being cheaper

if you'd be happy with the hex's then do it, that's what it's all about.

Hell I'll give you $50 toward those Rainbows just so you don't have to run Diamond!! I keed, I keed. Seriously though, spend the money on something quality with a warranty.

*Edit* You already have the Germs in your sig?? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/uhoh.gif.c07307dd22ee7e63e22fc8e9c614d1fd.gif

The Hex's have no midbass......I sold mine

 

[Sonnick 10+ year member]

Well, I was almost 100% sure when I made my sig, but then I heard these and now I don't know. Anyone have these in the Long Island area? or Poughkeepsie? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Sig edited lol

I heard people saying the midbass lacks but I've also heard people say the midbass is great. All install dependent I guess
