I've been trying to find a set of component speakers with good sound quality and that can get LOUD...if thats possible. I've been looking closely at two sets:

-RE Audio XXX 6.5s

*Power Handling: 150 Watts RMS

*Impedance: 2 Ohms

-Pheonix Gold RSD 65cs

*Power Handling: 60 watts RMS

*Impedance: 4 Ohms

Ive seen many threads that promote the PG's but im just wondering if the RE's would be a better buy? The RE's are quite a bit more expensive...but also have a higher wattage.

Thanks!

Take the time and do the research, You'll be happy you did later

LOUD is subjective and requires a budget. Be more clear.

Im not really on a budget, but not looking to spend a rediculously huge amount...so high end Focals or Hertz would be out.

Loud meaning I want something that will sound musical at very high volumes. Im looking for sound quality as well as loudness. And Im also looking to find a component set with a non-harsh sounding tweeter.

What have you listened to that you like?

I've listened to high end Kickers, Polk Audios, Diamond Audios, Massive Audios, and a few others that slip my mind.

And to re-iterate what I asked above, what did you like about them and what didn't you like?

ohh sorry, read the post way too fast and kinda missed that part...

-the polk audios i enjoyed, thought they sounded clear and not so harsh at higher volumes.

-Kickers sounded amazing at lower volumes but as the volume increased the tweeters became very noisy and harsh to the ears.

-Diamond Audios i rather enjoyed, very musical and great mid-bass.

-Massive audios were just plain harsh at any volume.

I was just thinkin about another set...what is your opinion on the ROCKFORD T162S? Any feedback?

thanks again

Hmm, you only ask for loud and then don't reference how any of those sets do in that regard.

thats because i was not able to hear them at their full potential. They were in a wall in a store when i heard them.
