[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 1682182, member: 555320"] Both of them are equally prone to beaming. All speakers are prone to beaming. The 6.5", however, will begin to beam at a lower frequency than the 5.25". Beaming is, simply put, due to a relationship between the length of the soundwave in relation to the diameter of the cone.
