Default Has anyone put Focal speakers in their front doors?

If so, which line and which size? I'm close to purchasing the Kevlar components (want the Utopias, but can't justify the cost-value ratio), and I notice that there are two sizes of 5.x" woofers. I bet the larger one is deeper also, and I wonder if there are any fitment issues. If you have them or know whether they will/will not work, please post the line, model number, and dimensions of the woofer (I'm assuming that the tweeter will not be an issue). Thanks!

Default I've heard the Focals

and they are great! I have also heard the Diamond Audio speakers. For the money, the Diamond is much more worth the money IMO. Have you seen those?

Default A buddy has Diamonds

all around in his 300M. I like them, but I think the Focals are cleaner. Plus, I hate to be a copycat (even though I recommended them to him!). I currently own Boston Pro 6.4s from a previous car, but they won't fit. I love those speakers.

Did you hear the Focals in an Audi, or just on some store's sound board (like me)?

Default i have the polykevlar 130ks

its the 5 1/8 component set. i chose it over the 5 3/8 set because the freq response of the driver is lower. i wanted more mid-bass up front. its just hard to get a good amount of mid-bass with 5" drivers though.

they sound real good though.
