Here is my situation and i need help. I own a Cadence ZRS-4 amplifier, in which it is a 4 channel amp that does 125 W x 4 @ 4 ohms RMS. Well, it is an extremely clean amp (0.034% THD) for my midrange so i want a great component to go with it (6.5'' Round). My choices have narrowed down to the following. (1) Cadence CVL-6K and (2) Nakamichi SP-S6500 . The Cadence's are 150 WRMS and 250 peak, while the Nak's are 70WRMS and 140 WPEAK. Well, i figured if i got the Nak's i'd just turn the gain down and adjust it from there. Check out the websites for me for both at www.cadencesound.com and www.nakamichi.com and compare for me and tell me which one i should get ... By the way, my head unit is a CD-45z by Nakamichi, and it is fantastic. thanks - tony

DYohn is right, if you buy speakers by what is printed on paper, you may not be happy with the way they sound. Even Bose can print good specs on paper, then they take that paper and make crappy speaker cones from it.....
