good job on narrowing down your speaker choices to these two... since they both sound good to u & price is similar, then to me the choice is simple.. just go for the speakers that look good to u or fits ur home deco more. cheers smile.gif

i will play 60% for music , 40% for movie

since u still haven't made up ur mind, i suggest u go with the MA RS6s... reason, design is longer lasting compared to Mezzos, & Mezzo 6 tweeter designs have holes on top which tend to trap dust & cobwebs etc which will affect sound quality later. So it's a no brainer, go for MA. Cheers dude!

the meezo cabinet is curved one...is seen to reduced to standing wave... is it really important?...btw.. if ma rs6, will colour will ur guy choose?

color depends on the deco of your house/av-room... for me, i'm going for cool minimalist look so it has to be glossy piano black... none of the speakers u chose has that so.... i'd just go for the black ? smile.gif

how the sound? good for music o movie?
*
i use them 45% movies, 45% gaming (PS3) & 10% music..... i can say they sound absolutely fantastic for movies & gaming, & but they only sound good for music with the onkyo 875. They sounded fantastic when i auditioned the speakers with moon CD player & power amps.


Added on August 25, 2008, 11:01 ammore poison for u splee.... MA RS6 freq response from 38hz to 30khz whereas these canton chrono 507 is 25hz to 40khz. go figure.. smile.gif
