6.5 vs 8 vs 10 woofer


IMHO I think the 8 is the ideal size cone for mid/small sized listening rooms. Even for large size listening rooms. 
The lower mid hz's seem cleaner/clearer. And  there is so little fq's in 905+ of the music we listen to, it seems to me the 8  driver is the most perfect size cone.
A 10 size cone  has the potential to become overwheling, aggressive, attacking when amp gain is pushed just a  tad too much, = Better  volume  control with a  8 vs a 10. 
The 6.5 misses some of that lower bass which a  8 can voice superior. 
After listening to several YT vids with a  10 FR, I had considered going 10, but i think  staying with a  8 avoids regrets. 
I listen at low/mid volume.

Well, I combine those with a pair of SVS SB-13 Ultras to make sure there's just enough bass.

They all come with volume controls. They don't have to be turned up to 11.
Thanks for sharing. Based on your informative post, I just put my two Rythmik F25s with their ridiculous dual 15-inch drivers out by the curb with a "free" sign on them.
