These r all focal speakers ...
Easy comparison ... More $$$ = better sound.
End of the day, it is your budget that decide.

Don't think more $$$ always = better sound.

If that's the case which will you choose? And between a 6.5" and 5.25"?

K2P165 is the one to get.

Polyglass and Access are the lower ends.

Don't get 5.25".

Hi,

Why not 5.25"?

Focal K2 Power 165 KR2 6.5-Inch 2-Way Component Speaker

Focal K2 Power 165 KR 6.5-Inch 2-Way Component Speaker

Focal 165K2Pl- 6.5" Polykevlar Power Components

So which is good?

For my case, change speakers or get processor 1st?

Bro, how do you define good? What suit my ears may not suit you. Listen to the speakers you mentioned (if possible) then decide. Hope this helps.

6.5" can play lower and give better punch than 5.25".

Attend more meet ups to fully understand first before changing. What I see is you're like a headless housefly. Usually, will end up changing and changing stuffs because you're not sure what you want.
