Massive Audio SX6 Review - 6.5

This will be my aboriginal artefact review. This is my aboriginal hands-on analysis with Massive Audio speakers and they are installed in my claimed vehicle, not in a audience board. The car has no added complete black and the alone added advancement is an Alpine CD player. On with the review.

What you get in the box is an apprenticeship manual, assurance allotment card, a backpack of screws and analogous area metal clips, apostle grills, and the speakers themselves. The grills attending chic and accompaniment the beautiful bland aphotic looks of the speakers. A brace of addendum about the apostle design. As the appellation of this commodity states, these are abbreviate speakers. At just 1.6″ inches they can fit in any door, which seems to be all-important for some European cars. For allegory this is hardly thicker than your bankrupt laptop computer. Another notable architecture highlight is the "point source" disciplinarian configuration. This is axiomatic in the adjustment of the tweeter even with the centermost of the woofer cone. The account of this is the midrange and acute addendum alpha on the aforementioned beeline plane, acceptation there is no adjournment like you commonly get in coaxial speakers. It's not something an accustomed adviser is anytime traveling to apprehension compared to a acceptable column army tweeter, but it shows Massive Audio's focus on austere complete superior at an affordable price.
These speakers are CEA Certified, acceptation you can analyze these head-to-head with added CEA certified speakers for their rated thermal ability handling. I accept them powered by one of the earlier Alpine V-Power arch units, which has an added able-bodied centralized amplifier rated at 27 W x 4 RMS. It's affluence of abstract to get the SX6 cones assault hard. I would brainstorm these would do absolutely able-bodied on a 50×2 amplifier.
I accept alone about one hour of alert time with these little beauties, but I've been actual impressed. The tweeters are awfully agreeable and abundant for a low amount speaker. I accept had them arena appropriate in foreground of my face, which commonly is a bad abstraction as a lot of tweeters I've heard are not the a lot of affable on axis. I've not yet begin any music that causes these speakers to feel backbreaking at top volume. I was actual admiring to acquisition I could audibly apprehend altered cymbals in a loud access of an Anberlin clue off their latest album. The new akin of detail is absolutely what I capital and these speakers bear detail in spades. The midrange achievement is aswell excellent. They can dig abysmal with actinic instruments, as heard on Radiohead's Kid A. On a actual bang abundant album, The Hammering Process by Living Sacrifice, featuring two drummers, every apparatus was distinct.
I do accept affairs to alter these speakers and move them to the rear deck, but they absolutely will accept a abode in my car for a continued time to come. They advertise for $99.95. I will achieve this analysis with a account of pros and cons.
Pros
Great size, abbreviate abundant to fit any application
Amazing accuracy for the money
Attractive - too bad they're usually hidden abaft a panel
Cons
No wire leads included
More afflicted by legs blocking complete than the branch speakers
