Have a listen to both of them and judge for yourself.. At the end of the day is up to personal preference....

yeah it all goes down to personal taste really. Some 6x9s produce different kinds of bass and trebles better than others. Whatever you do if you put a sub in make sure you tune your 6x9s properly. I think ive blown mine :o

I'd have to agree with that.. If you have or are planning to get a sub in the future, 6x9s are a waste of money. Rear speakers are mainly there to keep you're passengers happy IMO, the majority of what you listen to should come from you're front stage, not the rear. Save for a little longer and get a 10inch and a moderately powered monoblock or 2-channel amp, you'll be much happier with the results.
If you simply must have 6x9s tho (I assume you want some cheap bass), go the Cadence ones. The couple that I've listened to put out reasonable bass but average mid/high range sound. Most JL speakers I've heard are better at mid/high range sound but not too great at reproducing bass on their own. Just my opinion.. in the end its what you like best.

JL Audio TR690's for sure. The Cadence ZX691's are good speakers but the overall quality of the JL Audio's are
alot better. Come down to JB Chaddy and i can give u a listen and price on them ;)
Im about to sell my JL Audio TR690's if your interested...

That’s certainly good advice, what type of music do you listen to mainly?
When you go to listen to them make sure you take a CD with the music that you like to listen to.

6x9s are good just dont use em for bass ive got mb quarts in the back of my ek4 but as i have two 12 inche pioneer subs ive got the 6x9s on high pass they seem to vibrate to mutch when the bass is on ive also got the new yellow pioneers in the doors so when i take the subs out i just turn the bass back on the 6x9s an it still sounds good
