    need help comparing S3 to S2 600 series

    Hi all,

    From what I have been reading there is a significant difference in the 600 series between the S3 and S2 lines... Most folks here state that the best bang for the buck is the 602, but If you had a choice between the the 601 S3 and the 602 S2, which would you choose and why?

    Thanks for the help...

    DM602 S2. The 601 will have you wanting a sub in no time, while a pair of 602's may postpone this desire for a while...

    The upgrade was most apparent between the first serie (S1) and the second series (S2), as it was between these series that the tweeter got enhanced / upgraded...

      Which series do you own: 600, 700 or 800?
