Im not too good with car audio....all i have is a alpine deck that ive had for about 3 years....and i want a little better sounding system.. I dont wanna do any subs but possibly an amp but i dont know...ive read the crazy debates about the 6.5 or 6.75 sizes of our front speakers so im just gonna go with 6.5s ... As far as brands go i was thinkin alpine or infinity. But i dont know what's the best. I want something that hits well and clear...a nice crisp thump, what do i have to do? can i get any suggestions...after all i trust the 6gc owner the most
Im lookin to spend up to 400 or 500 bucks Thanks a bunch |

Most speakers will rattle your doors...my stock ones rattled my doors even. I bet that if you crank your music up and close the doors with the windows up and stand outside the car your doors will rattle too.
Mine no longer rattle, because I've used a lot of RaamMat Dynamat-type sound deadener, and about 4-5 layers of eDead v.3 paint-on sound deadener. The eDead stuff is so easy to apply, and it's fairly cheap too. My gallon was $55 shipped I believe. So for around $400, you could have an awesome front speaker setup with no rattles and not too much work. And if you go without the amp, then you could get some cheaper coaxial speakers that handle around 25-35 watts RMS. Those would probably be a good choice to run off of deck power, but I don't know of any speakers that really fit that criteria off the top of my head. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...
