get some Crystal CCSC's.....they are veddy nice, and not all that expensive for what you get.

i have never had first had experience with Diamond, but their products look mediocre at best.:-)

i personally prefer the sound of Silk Tweeters...they are more laid back, not as aggresive.

if oyu like extremely loud tweeters....then get metal, if oyu want a more natural sounding...get silk(my opinion, as you can tell, i have had bad experiences with metal tweets.lol)

I like Diamonds. Not smooth and full, but "neat" and detailed. The D6 and 9s are good for the $.
I've had good experiences with both, but I'm more of a smooth and full type.
