    Diamond M3 are not as good as the MMC6500.

    Diamond M6 are as good as the MMC6500 but cost $100 more.

    Diamond Hex are better than the MMC6500 but cost $350 more.

    Get the MMC6500.

    I'd take anything Diamond over polk. For me...thats a no brainer. However...some folks do like the Polk speakers.

    Yup, and Im one of them.

    Diamond makes some great speakers. Ive not owned any of them but I have listened to them exstensively and got a good 20 minute audition in their demo car and they are outstanding.

    The M3 is not as good as the MM6 or the MMC. The M6 was tho. It was a tad smoother but lacked the midbass and at nearly $100 more (retail) they aint worth it.

    The Hex is quite good and is better than the MMC or M6. Its also $670!

    I love the way the Carbon series sounds. They have a great "color" to them and sound awesome with metal. Now that my MM6's seem to have broken in, they sound outstanding! I wouldnt trade em for anything short of some MBQ Premiums.
