Are these speakers waterproof/resistant? What is the frequency range? What size is the cross overs? Thanks for the response.

I have the MS69CX Diamonds. They require a lot of grinding on the RF kit to get them to fit and seal properly. Nice speaker but don't let the words COAX SUB fool you. There is nothing about them that resemble a sub. They are way better than the RF, not as loud as the MMats. I'm feeding them 200W crossed at 70 and they rock pretty good. These bitches are heavy, its the one thing I don't like.

Most 6x9's can go 70hz. Have you tried them lower? I personally have not tied/heard these but from what I have read they aren't all that and you confirmed that they are heavy for any lids and not as loud as mmats. You need loud in the lids to overcome the wind. I WILL need to hear them before my final thoughts on them. Thanks for the review.

I have went lower. To me, they seem to sound best around 70hz. Once broke in I'll play with the a little more.

So the hertz sx 690.4 would be a lot lighter on the lids correct. Are they as loud as the Mmats?

I really like my GZ 7x10. I haven't heard every 6x9 so I wont say the best. 7X10s get extremely loud and hit pretty dam good, after a little tweak from Mr. Bates.
