[QUOTE="6three6mafia6, post: 1036559, member: 557245"] hey guys i got to say ive been struggling with DLS speakers for about a year, i have a car audio and electronics magazine and they did a special HIGH END component comparison, they had the most expensive speaker rainbow reference(6,000$then) the alpine spx z15m(3500$) the morel elite(or something like that 899$) and the dls iridium 6.2(850$) they got the most expensive speakers out did tests and reviewed them, and the dls did kind bad, it did the worse out of all the speakers and it scored a 60 out of 100, the alpine did 86 out of 100 highest score, in the test it showed the dls had tons of spikes and valleys in the frequency response including a 10db dip around 10khz, that was the first time they did a reiviwe with the the klippel anylizer(or something like that) and the second bad thing about the woofer was the xc and xbl , it pretty much had the shorted xmax and the spider ran out of travel VERY soon and i think it said it could move 2.3mm, and they had some other issues they coulnd figure out. This stuff is all in charts and tech info etc, then when it came to the music listening it didnt do what a 800$ component set should do. So my question do the dls iridium users, ive been thinking VERY much about getting a iridium 3 way but it seems like these things have no mid bass and as far as the spikes in frequency response im not to worried about , im starting to think that FLAT speakres arent for me cause i like how my kappa 6x9 sound more than ANY component ive had in my car, so i need to know , how GOOD do these things sound , and is the midbass below average??? i want to get listening reviews mostly cause ive had problems with lower non bass sounds(500-1000hz) that my components never play loud, but my 6x9 kappas play them much better(actually audiable) so a person with a graph seing a valley around 500-1500hz might see as a bad thing but i would pay to get something like that, so it could be that it actually looks bad on paper but it sounds good?
