Hey guys, I will be upgrading my subs pretty soon, and up untill now I was planning on doing the JL Audio 12W6v2, but today I went to another dealer and looked/listened to a set of Diamond Audio M6's, and they seem to be of the same quality as the W6v2, with slightly better power handling, and sensitivity ratings. So far everything I have heard about Diamond is good, and the fact that they are approx. half the price of the JL's is a big plus too. So my question is, any of you with the M6, have you had any problems with them? How is the reliability/customer service from Diamond? Any other input you may have on them would be appreciated....even if you think I should go with the JL's instead, why?

SQ on the two subs seems to be the same, and the Diamonds play a little louder. (I listened to the subs in my car, the dealers were nice enough to bring them out so I could hear them. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] )

Thanks in advance,
Mystic

i was actually going to buy the M6 12" sub, but then i opted for the TDX. anyways, i heard the M6 running off of a diamond 600.1 in a customers car at the local car audio shop, and i was amazed, the sub was in a sealed box to, and it was loud. that sub can handle the power easily, and honestly, for the price, i prefer diamond speakers and subs over any comparable jl speaker and sub.

Yeah, I like the TDX, but he put two of those in my car, and two M6's, and the M6's are louder because I only have two JL 500/1's.....and thats not really enough for the TDX....and I dont feel like spending another couple grand in amps. I'll prob go with M6's, just because they are so much cheaper than the JL's, and I actually think they may be a little better...
