I've heard this on headphones, my vehicles stock sound system and my high end home theater! Overall IMHO the Memphis sounded fuller in both categories, somewhat neutral on both highs and lows, the Alpines sounded less full, but cleaner in the highs and vocals, the BLAM had the best bass punch and higher fidelity highs, but felt like the bass interfered with the quality of the vocals a bit. At the end of the day they can all be fine tuned, depending on the head unit/amplifier. Every ear is different, can't go wrong with either choice! Thanks for the comparison!

Yo! The BLAMs knocked it out of the park! The Lows hit hard (enough to skip the need for a sub for some people). The Mids were clean and accurate (less nasally than the other two). The Highs sounded clean and warm without the overemphasis or harshness. Overall, i would definitely spend the extra money to hear true high fidelity reproduction in my vehicle! BLAM is now officially on my radar!

Those were the most clear and accurate of the 3, alpine following behind closely but the blam sound more clear and balanced, I like the punch and clarity from the blam. The Memphis really left some on the table for me. Every time the video switched to them it just sounded too high and not clear on the voice or mids

The alpines sound like they can get loud and clear but missing some midrange. I have the type r tweeters and they get loud and clear. The Blam speakers sound good to me they have that strong mid bass and detail highs. They do sound softer and seemed like they can get loud and clear.

When I saw the Memphis had a poly cone tweeter, I was out on that one. Then I saw the deals and realized how bright the tweeter was above like 8k or 10k but kinda sounded muddy elsewhere. But listening to that BLAM, it sounds nice and flat on tweeter response blending with the mid, and I even picked up some notes that couldn't be heard through the Memphis tweeters that the BLAM really picked up on and the Alpines let you know they were there but not as audible. This BLAM look nice, but I'd like to see them reproduce those same Sq qualities at a higher rms power rating like 85-100 rms

Alpine's distorted a bit, sound like the tweeter is crossed to low or the mid/bass has break-up issues in the upper mid register. Thier overall sound is the best, followed by the Memphis. WHile the BLAM clearly have the most accurate midrang and bass production, the tweeter is poorly matched and absolutley neutered, dull sounding. Keep in mind too, smaller dome, wider dispersion, something you may want for staging in a small environment like a car. I would say for rear fill yes, not so much up front unless they have to be mounted high in the door. I prefer 1" to 1.1/8" tweeters up front in the A pillar. At this price I would go with Focal, better yet Morel, hands down.

You gotta review Alpine Type X components. I had 6x9 Type Rs years ago, but I made the leap and am almost there to finishing this full Alpine Type X system, speakers and woofer with matching amps. Idk when, but Alpine has three classes now, from worst to best: S type, R type, and X type. They now make amps paired for the subs and speakers in their respective class. I found aluminum leak seal tape that is very similar to much more expensive sound dampening material, and you can get hard core with that or butyl tape depending on how many mils thick it is. I've watched videos and seen that it works amazingly. I also learned how to set the gain on an amp using a $40 oscilloscope; screw buying the Steve Meade distortion detector lmao, oscilloscope is the true, real way to go. I've watched comparisons. Cheers!

A lot of people with think the BLAM sounds muted, but that is in comparison to the other two REALLY bright speakers. With the second song (real music), the BLAM sounded much warmer... It's all just personal preference anyway. In my Jeep, I just want volume that can cut through the wind noise when the top is down (Alpine)... In my Lexus, I want a warm, realistic sound (BLAM) since it is road noise is minimal... I wish Burmester made car audio for cars other than Porsche & Mercedes!!

I like your take on them. Just my opinion... At times yes the Blam does sound laid back and muted, but the bass is there. The Memphis sounds nice clear and crisp, but at times a little too much highs and the Alpine is similar to the Memphis in my opinion, but a little tamer. I wish the Blam had more high end and vocals and they would be high on my list. For the price I think I'd pass on them vs the other two, but the nice bass is there. The volume seemed like they turned it up on the Blam on the first song at the end which made it sound better at that moment.

Anyone have an opinion on how these 3 selections compare to the somewhat newly entered Sony mobile ES components? I grew up slightly after the peak of the golden Sony ES days and still have 2 XM-2100G amps. I used one of them for a pair of Sony XS-L1090P5 10" subs with dual magnets mostly for SQ with decent results. I guess in that sense im somewhat old school, and some habbits die hard, so I wouldnt mind giving them another chance if they do actually sound really nice. Again, not looking for max spl as I already have tinnitus for some obvious (and other not so obvious) reasons, just an overall smooth and pleasant sound.

I've fried them all with the gains set properly using a 0db track from JL and my kenwood DMX9720XDS set the 3/4 volume so 30 out of 40 as JL tell you to do (they are probably accounting for most head units introducing distortion past 30 but not one kenwood dmx line I've seen or used does) this one has 5v pre outs that also don't distort at full tilt I'm not sure what the overlap would be but probably 5db at a rough guess but I zero out all my music tracks with active replay gain set to zero on poweramp android and all my music has the replay gain meta data. The thing you find most with sq designed speakers is a more warm tone with less mid range screech and better base response generally from a much bigger voice coil and excursion ability even with 1200w of subs doing most of the hard lifting and the speakers crossed over around 100 Hz because car doors are never going to get much below that even with good sound treatment in my experience unless they are sealed doors from the factory (love a car that has solid doors and no crappy plastic vapor barrier) not even sound treatment can compete with that stock. And I'm I the only one who at head unit only low volumes think some of the factory speakers actually do a better job at bass in those infinite baffel type car doors? Well I'm convinced they do even if the rest of the sound is crap and lacking clarity. Takes a lot of sound deadening with any upgrade to get close to factory base response with some oem speakers . Love the BLAMS sound signature, hate the price it's not justified no matter what they are made of or the fact they are aimed at wealthy snobs. My stereo is worth more than my car about 6k although I've spent probably 8 total on going through different speakers. I need the perfect mix of SPL and sq and haven't found it yet. Kicker KS and alpine type r are the closest I've come! Suggestions welcome. Had thought about some jl c3 convertible coax/components but even their Powe rating and their more expensive siblings are rated to handle their own brand amps output lol. I also like the idea of coax front and rear less of axis cancellation but I still like a tweeter up top too. Sorry for such a long post but any suggestions would be great !😊

I for one need more power than that. Only the Alpines are in my consideration. I'm running earthquake 6.5 400 watt speakers in all 4 of my doors powered by a 1000 watt 4 channel amp. Paired with two 12's powered by a 2000 watt monoblock. I'm considering either running four 12's or two 15's to upgrade

You really have to take in to consideration this sound is coming from a mic in a open room through KZfaq’s compressed audio out of our little headphones or nice headphones 🎧. But all in all we are just getting a small taste of all the quality these speakers offer.

Question for everyone. I bought component speakers as they were cheap. Can I just use the speaker as a direct replacement on my car and then just use the tweeter to replace my original one. Obviously using the cars original wiring and not using the box that separates the sound that comes with the kit. thanks

The BLAM definitely sound the warmest of the 3 sets, but they're way out of my budget. I feel like there was some distortion in them, though. The Memphis are more my budget range, and should do well enough for me. Been hearing good things about the brand. Thanks, these have been a big help with helping me replace the 21 year old bose speakers that came with the car.

Listened this through my 300w 8 powered speakers the blam definitely felt worth the price premium over the other 2 but personally unless I'm redoing an expensive old school luxury car or something I'd probably just go with the Memphis because I don't think the Alpine were worth the premium over them
