aculous Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 wondering how they are going to sound. $140 a driver is a little steep but then when you look at similarly performing drivers and setups they look like a bargain. Would like to know how the stack up with the Anarchy's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gckless Posted April 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 First, some photos: Stereo Integrity TM65 by Gilbert Kless, on Flickr I put mine in today, and my initial impression was one of slight disappointment. There was a hollow sound and I found myself reaching for EQ. Vocals sounded a bit odd. Quick RTA showed 500Hz was down, but I'm not totally sure at this point it's solely the drivers themselves. Might be the way they're playing with the truck. I also noticed that they don't seem as efficient as the Anarchy's I took out, seems like they both handle more and require more power to get loud. Seemed like the snap of a snare drum was more in your face though, I did like that. Regardless, I only have about 45 minutes on them, so I will definitely give them some time. Both of the symptoms I've described will almost definitely subside after break in. I also only have them on like 30W or so, temp amp right now until my Ground Zero amps get here. I'm excited to see what they hold in store. I will be revisiting the Anarchy's in another month or two, and do a true side-by-side with both broken in well. Here's another review where the initial symptoms were also seen, and disappeared after some listening: http://www.diymobileaudio.com/forum/member-reviews-product-comparisons/180162-average-joe-review-stereo-integrity-tm65.html "Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now.

Karkov Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 Thanks man. =/ Seriously interested in some nice shallow mounts. Not saying I expected great results/opinions right out the bag but was hoping they impressed you, lol....oh well. I feel as though 30 watts isn't enough as you have stated. Truly appreciate the info, and am looking forward to further reviews of these from you. 2007 Chevy Tahoe (SOLD) 12 ~ FI Audio X series 10" w/BP option 2 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @0.67 3 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @1.0 2 ~ PPI 3 way sets (not installed yet) 1 ~ RF T400-4, 1 ~ RF T600-2, 1 ~ RF T600-4 4 ~ CT Sounds 5.25" Strato comps (rear fill only) 1 ~ XS Power D4800 1 ~ XS Power D3400 8 ~ XS Power XP3000 160 stock alt, Mechman 370 Elite, 185 DC Power 320+ Sq.

I will say that the snap of the snare in Touch, Peel, and Stand really surprised me, was a much more concussive snap. I don't believe I gave these the right conditions for a proper review yet, so I guess take everything with a grain of salt. That being said, conditions are the same as the Anarchys they replaced.
