Between the two, which would you choose?
I have a set of PG 5 1/4 Zeropoints and a set of PG 6 1/2 XS comps. Both would be ran actively, 75w to the Mids and 45w to the tweeters. It's my understanding or belief, that The Zeropoints are a bit more robust, but what I'm looking for is which one has better lowend out put? I have both sets but in tired of taking my door panels off.

Re: Between the two, which would you choose?
I'm currently running the XS set for that reason, but there's little to no low end at all. I'm going to try one more thing on the installation side of things first I guess.
The RSDc sub I bought from dako arrived yesterday so I have some tuning to do.

Re: Between the two, which would you choose?
I would guess the 6.5's, but if the zeropoints are indeed more robust it might be a wash. I do tend to think though that cone area will win out in any case.
Being loud without good sound quality is pointless, but having good sound quality without being loud is also pointless.
Re: Between the two, which would you choose?
I am going to disagree, more cone area (Sd) does not mean it will play to lower frequencies well. Fs and Xmax will play much larger roles in how low the speaker is able to play. If cone area made that much of a difference, we wouldn't have smaller diameter subwoofers. I would look at the specifications of both speakers and see which set is more apt to play lower frequencies at higher SPL levels.
XS2300, XS2500, XS2300, X200.4, X100.2, Ti21000.4, Roadster 66

Re: Between the two, which would you choose?
I was to lazy to post that, but yes more XMAX and less cone area could beat out less XMAX and more cone area. Specs for the zeropoint 5 set is from 80-21k. Can't find the freq response to the XS6 set. So I don't know.

Re: Between the two, which would you choose?
without looking I would say about the same. just buy a 70 set of rsd 6.5 and enjoy
