I ordered these speakers after already owning a pair of Polk DB6501. I had had the DB6501 set up in the front sound stage, but when I received the MM6501 I replaced the front with the MM's and moved the DB's to the back. WHAT A HUGE DIFFERENCE! The MM's absolutely blow the DB's away (and I was a fan of the DB's). In my opinion, if you are on the fence for an extra 60-70 dollars the difference between the two Polk series is more than worth it. Very good bass response, crystal clear highs. Loving life!

You can find a few better sounding speakers out there, but not for this price. Not even close. Crisp and clear sound as long as your source equipment driving them are good. You won't be disappointed. Don't expect them to replace sub-woofer's, you will be disappointed, but they are not supposed to. You have to be creative mounting the tweeters, but an easy task for an experienced installer.

40 to 25khz frequency response at 2.7 Ohms, and 94db!
These speakers offer a warm sound, compared to similar Infinity or MbQuart component speakers. In my opinion they also blow the Polk Db series speakers out of the water.
They sound great with or without an Amp or Sub. I highly recommend them.

I have used Polk speakers in many of my cars. The shallow depth and scattered mounting holes made the install less difficult. Although no install in an '02 BMW 330xi is easy. Comparing these to stock speakers is not fair, so I won't. The bass is rich and not punchy. Midrange is well ballanced. The hi's are crisp and not brassy. I would like to have a little more power handling, but for the price it's just right.

My g/f has been complaining that the stock speakers in her Suzuki just don't get it done. So I looked around for a good component set of speakers to upgrade to. So I decided to give the DB 651's and MM6501s a shot. I also put in a small Kenwood 4 channel amp. After putting in some sound deadner in the doors (this is a must for the MM6501 going in the front door) I got everything wired up and it was far beyond a night and day difference. After playing it for a few seconds, out comes the g/f. She sat down and was blown away by what she was hearing. Now give these speakers a good amount of time to break in (I would say about 2 months) and the sound just gets better. I love the sound of these speakers, that I am going to put the same setup in my 08 Maxima, but with a bigger 4 channel amp to really bring these to life.
