Focal or diamond audio?
Looking at doing an upgraded system and was wondering if I should go with focal like I have had in past vehicles
And have been really really happy with or diamond audio. I heard that diamond audio also makes kick ass stuff as well. |

Both are nice and we have both available for you
I would also highly consider Arc Audio Black series and Hybrid Audio as well. Depends on what models of the products your looking at |

has anyone used audison amps? The one I was looking at is the AV 5.1k. The install shop said of course that this is one of the best amps on the market. Its pricey though. $1500

Like all Audison products they are nice. I think you can do just as nice for a lot less than 1500.00 to be honest I can get you the Focal 165KR and a great amp together for less than the 1500.00 price for the Audison amp. Hybrid Clarus Arc Black Series are two of my other suggestions for speakers. Just stay with the K2 series on the Focal. The Polyglass to me are not worth the money from Focal |

I think diamond audio is the best. Get the d3s or d6s an you will never look back.

can't go wrong w/ either brand. I had Diamond M6 comps in the past and they were very good & have Focal 5x7's in my focus and they are excellent as well will be getting the Focal KR's soon and those sound amazing. got the Diamonds to replace some JL Audio comps and was very happy w/ the upgrade

D6 comps here and love them..Focal is nice too. I think the Diamond is a little better..just my opinion.. when listening to them side by side in the sound room

What about MBQuart? The Q series look good. Ive had them in the past in 2 different setups. I was always happy and Im hard to please.

+ 1 for Hybrid Audio!
I'm running L6's, L1sE's and an ARC 900.6 and couldn't be happier. Just add an EQ or SP and call it finished. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hybrid Audio or Focal...both good...both different tonal characteristics. Listen yourself and see what you like. Shopping on the internet will never tell you what truly sounds good to your ears.
