Under normal circumstances this would be a no brainer as components are always my go to choice, but there's more to this. Like it states in the title.
I have a brand new set of NVX NSP65 Coaxials and the CDT CL6 Classics are from 2004, but remained unopened until a few weeks ago. So they're both essentially brand new. The CDTs were I want to say like $300+ back then, however I got them for a steal as they were considered "Factory Rejects" bc the cone was a maroon color instead of red.
So they're both new speakers but the CDTs are 14 yrs old, so a 14 year old comp set vs a new coaxial? Just wondering if speakers have changed that much over the years that the coaxials may be better. Also bc I have a lease vehicle I don't want to have to cut or drill into any panels, I'll be mounting the tweeters right above the mid driver with the CDTs, I have a Silverado (2018 non bose) and I will be keeping the dash speakers, have a set of Memphis 2.75s on the way to replace the stock 1s. Both sets of speakers will be running off a Memphis SRX 150.2, so both would be seeing about 60 watts per speaker.
So under those circumstances which would you guys recommend? What ever 1s I don't use will go into my girls vehicle so they will go to good use either way...
