stocks

You mean WAS a great name. They too have succumbed to not always staying true to form and have a bunch of stuff I'd have no interest in. The comp set in question I am not referring to and have no experience with, but in general Morel doesn't get a thumbs up across the board IMO. meh. so i'll be the first to say i don't know much about reviewing speakers. but the morels are the nicest i've owned. of course this has a lot to do with a proper deadening job. so anyway, i'm running them off head unit power and they distort at about the same volume the stock speakers did. but i can actually hear vocals! and there's midbass! i'm sure they would be louder and clearer if amped.. but for my listening i am happy. i am unbelievably angry that this ia sale came up days after i bought my speakers though. oh well

thought it was you.. but still.. damn.

a little harsh don't you think? they were on sale and unfortunately i missed it by a month. oh well, funds were the issue. the ia components show up on amazon as well i ended up buying the morels simply because i had a budget of about $250 to finish deadening and get come decent components; and they were cheaper. i'll buy a dcon or two to support the ssa community soon

thanks man Best advice really. Everyone has different tastes for their front stage.Comparing IA's subwoofers to the Maximos is like comparing apples to oranges, dontcha think? :PSince these speakers aren't that much money, you could always try a set, sell used, take a little loss, and try the others. I'd rather do that and lose a little bit of cash but end up with what sounds better to me.See what local shops carry, ask if they have any of the products installed in their personal rides so you could get a demo. Listening to the wall is better then nothing. if only there were shops in indy that carried decent equipment. there's only one i know of that carries orion and that's about the extent of decent equipment.. i'm gonna dig around a little more. thanks

morel is an established name and has been for decades. ia is a great company also, but there are no in depth reviews of either of the speakers. which is why i'm having trouble deciding on either. any one have a third candidate? alright. well looks like.... ia is winning the discussion

yup. thanks for the input damnit. now you're changing my mind. the morels are from amazon and i would assume them to be an authorized dealer. plus a warranty. but none of the support ia has on this board. but they're more expensive. so i'm conflicted

well looks like everyone has the same opinion on these.. thanks man. makes my decision harder i guess

hmm really? they seem to be a little less sensitive, the morels at 90.5db and the incriminators at 88db. i know that's pretty damn comparable, but i may be biased towards the morel name as well..... also, it's $20 shipping for the incriminators. but if they're a better speaker then i will definitely consider them instead.

well, decided to jump on the bandwagon again. i've decided i want some decent entry level comps. i've been looking at morel maximo 6.5s.. anything else around $120 that would suit my needs? wanted to stay right at $100 but unfortunately i saw nothing in the classifieds that would suit my needs

truth

my opinion.. six fifteens.

please don't

yeah everything is run through the amp

amp? head unit?

i took my equipment out of my car to diagnose a problem. while it was out it was stolen. so now i am stuck with factory power. the problem now though is, the factory system had some issues when i bought it. at a little over half volume the sound from the tweeters cuts out when there is a louder sound.. like a yell or.. scream. or just louder singing. head unit? or amp. 03 z4 by the way
