Morel Supremo Vs Hertz Mlk 165

[DIPKICK88]

alright, here it goes. i think we have a new company out that's competing with higher priced sq components that are better over all. the msrp on the MLK 165's are $999 and the MOREL SUPREMO's are $ 1,199. i read two reviews by two different sound specialist in this months publication in car audio and electronics. the review by bob morrow for HERTZ really impressed me. out of a total score of 100 he gave the MLK's an 87. the SUPREMO's scored an 86 by casey thorson. my question is: why spend an extra $1000 for the SUPREMO's? casey thorson said" the bass drum, which comes in after the guitar interlude, gave the impression that there's a subwoofer in this system- it's very rare that a 6.5 component set with such a well-balanced, low frequency responce". im sure the SUPREMO's sound just a little bit better but i don think their worth the extra 1000 bucks. hertz needs to get out there and really promote here in america. i think their fairly priced and very attractive. hertz is the new mb quart.

I don't see a $1000 difference in the prices you posted. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

The real difference is in the buyer's head/ears. To some people the Supremo may well justify the differences in price. I'd love to see some Hertz components to see how well they're made, and maybe get a feel for their "sound", but like you mention.... they aren't very easy to find.
