RE SE Comparison

Diamond Audio D6

I used to run a pair of the M6's. I would say they are comparable to those....with the M6's focusing a little more on SQ and the SE's a little more on SPL.

The M6's were power hungry as hell.....I know you asked D6, but I'm sorry I don't have any experience with those.

If you can find a dealer near you, the prices aren't too bad. 160 was the quote for a 12" SE for me.

Is there anywhere online they can be bought through a dealer for a price like this to your knowledge?

 

[jacka 10+ year member]

no, online they are a ripoff. ebay is okay but not authorized.

see if there are any near you. if not, i'd go with something else. the D6 is not a bad choice.

bonita springs, not too far of a drive. dunno if you'll get the same pricing, but its worth a shot. my friend got an xterminator-2000d for 225, got my Xt-1600.2 for 180 at my place, just for comparison for prices online.

Wow, I had no idea that shop carried RE. ****, that must be how that place stays in business....running good products //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

They probably charge MSRP //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I would love to, I doubt it would change anything knowing my area and the wealth so many have around me (myself not included) lol. Oh well, I'll go in there sometime to browse.

I thought I heard a while back that RE only raised direct pricing, not pricing through dealers. You might want to check it out. Also, see if they have any previous models in stock. My local dealer offered me BNIB Memphis M-Class woofers for $85 apiece with full warranty just because they had some instock when the new ones came out.

I'd get the D6 off ebay brand new for less than $200. Yes the D6 are very power hungry, they need around 1000rms each to really shine.

i dont kno if i really like diamond audio

Lol..I will tell you this, Diamond Audio makes some of the best car audio products out there. The D6 is a very capable driver, it can take quite a bit of power while sounding very good at the same time. If I were you, I'd get 2 10" D6, put em in a 2.5cft enclosure tuned to 30hz, you'll be amazed by the sound quality and output. I had 2 15" D6 sealed running off my D61500.1...and it was begging for more power. SQ wise..it was pretty **** good, comparable to the W6V2 my buddy has. SPL wise...size of size..no contest, the D6 will take it.
