Opinions on DLS speakers

I planning on replacing my system in my 04 CLK 320. I'm curious what your thoughts are on the DLS component systems.

I'm looking at the Iridium 6.2i. They are not cheap. I'm wondering if there are any other companies that you all may recommend. I already know that Focal is highly regarded.

From experience, DLS are excellent, very high end and decent speakers.

I love focal for their hard hitting control, but some may find the tweeters a little bright. They can give the impression that sustained high volume would make your ears bleed, and each mid/high note can cause you to blink/flinch.

If this is a concern then consider alternatives from Hertz or Dynaudio. If money isn't an option, then look at rainbow too!
