DLS UP6 vs Adire Kodas

Post by Mpbojangles »

I'm back with some more exciting questions...You guys had me set on Adire Koda's for front components, but someone threw the name DLS UP6 out to me, saying they were better SQ than Kodas. I am looking purely for SQ in my system and was wondering what you guys's take on these comps are. Any comments are appreciated.

While DLS is very good stuff, I don't think I'd rank them higher then Adire.

If you are putting down some cash, take a look into Dyn-Audio and Rainbow, too. Costly, but great.

I've heard the UP5's and they are very nice speakers. I'd rank them somewhat close to the Koda's in terms of sound quality, but I don't have enough listening time with either sets to give a clear opinion on which I like better. Now, if you stepped up to say the Ultimate Iridium line of speakers from DLS, they absolutely blow the Koda's away. You are also paying a lot more money compared to the Koda's, so it's not a fair comparison.

I've actually considered dropping my Dyn's and moving to the Iridium's a couple of times though. Very sweet speakers.

Just make sure you have a very nice amp to power such speakers! Go for at least Memphis or Zapco.

I thought they were good quality? (about Kicker's quality) nevermind then.

Memphis is good as far as I have heard. As for personal experience with them I have none.
