i haven't played much with those and with out me doing a recent comparison, i can't straight forward tell you yes or no. i'm not one feed someone a line of b.s..
i can say that how the crystals stood up against dynaudio in my testing, i wouldn't be afraid to put them up against anything in their price range, or even double their price.

lol, you don't have to group buy. you want them, i can hook you up with them. we were doing a group buy, if enough people wanted in, we would get a qty price break that we would additionally kick down to those ordering. so if you want them tomorrow, or next month, just hit me up when you're ready.

This sounds like a cop-out but this is a tough one to answer. You are asking us what we think YOU would like best. The truth is that each is a fine set for their price point. The Nissan is a great sounding car so whatever you put in needs to sound better to YOUR ears than the factory rig (which is quite good by OEM standards).
Go to a number of stores and listen to their better/ best stuff (BTW sometimes the cheap stuff sounds better). See if there is a product line that makes you happy... then once you know what you like and dislike, buy the best you can afford. Then mock it up in your car and make sure you are going to put the drivers where they sound the best. This is how an SQ noob or even an experienced SQ competitor does it.
You will have a hard time with any comp set keeping up with the RE's volume wise. I would guess that you would prefer the Infinity's in the lineup you put together but if you shop around...
Another option would be to check out some SQ cars at the next car audio competion you go to.

how many people can tell a true sq set up? only those serious about it. most people are so used to listening with the bass cranked full up, the treble cranked full up, the loud button on, the superbass eq function, and every thing else they can play with. they've trained themselves that is what sounds good. they might say an sq set sounds good, but if you turn your back, they would take a perfectly dialed system and tweek everything all out of whack. not saying he would do that, but i'm sure you've also had to have seen it a million times.
but i agree, the best advice is to listen to everything for yourself.

Polk Audio MMC6500 Infinity Perfect 6.1 Infinity Kappa 60.7cs Polk Audio db6500
PLEASE let me know which is the best for a 2004 Nissan Sentra SER Spec-V. I need something to get with my two 12" RE SE's
Well from my experiences in the store working with both Polk models you mentioned above... Polk tends to have a warmer, softer tone when playing any type of music. Now having a set of Infinity Kappa Perfects in each door of my truck,"yes 2 midbass and 2 tweeters each side", They sound alot cleaner and sharper then the other sets you mentioned. but of course that is subject to criticism and remembers its my ear that is rateing them. If you want to see pics of them just check out my post in the General Audio catagory under Mazda Kicker / Infinity install. But the draw back is that they need 100rms to properly sound and they are pricey.... but damn they rock and sound clean as hell doing it man!
