I'm rocking Bostons Acoustic S60s in my doors. Some damn good speakers right there. Crystal and Rainbow are supposedly damn good too, but i don't have much experience or info on'em.
the Bostons are 6.5" and they fit with a bracket. you can fit 8" woofers in the door as well, so it's totally up to you. -------------------- -Alex {](O_o)[}

I have pioneer 3 ways and they sound really good, even after a few years of playing really loud all the time:) They are pretty cheap too, compared to a lot of other speakers.

Best speakers for Sound Quality is definetly Focal (K2P165). But dont know if you want to pay that much for a composet. I paid about €400-430 for them 2 years ago, never was I dissapointed about them! But I dont think they are sold in the US (French company)

i second the pioneer idea, i have a set of 6 1/2 3-ways and a set of 6*9 3-ways and i love the sound, even for the price. i think you can get a set for about 40 bucks some places!

http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/Pr...ProductID=14797 that amp will power the 4 speakers http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/Pr...ProductID=14553 and those speakers.......now what im wondering is.....whats the key diffrence between: Pioneer & Pioneer Premier like whats the diffrence between the premier speakers ^ and these http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/Pr...ProductID=14530 besides the fact that the reg one or hte blue ones im getting 4 of them for $60 as opposed to $200 so what you think the major diffrence is....or is there really a quality diffrence..or is it just myth? -------------------- ![]() KB |

get the 4-way pioneer, cause with the 2-way you will get more bass, which you dont need
and you really dont need an amp, unless you want one lol but your headunit should be more than enough power for the speakers -------------------- ![]() |

well with the premier ones, id buy 4 of them....i just want them to sound good, bass is not a issue at all...due to "King Kong" in da Trunk haha or any other term you wanna use lol
well ive heard that the amp will make them sound wayy better....obviously. do the pioneer ones sound good thou? ..... and what is the diffrence between "2-way" "3-way" "4-way" ?? This post has been edited by KB-2: Jan 17, 2007 - 7:19 PM -------------------- ![]() KB |

never heard pioneers before... if you get another hifonics amp for which ever speakers you get, be sure not to turn the gain up too high... it seems like a lot of power for some door speakers... my door speakers dont have an amp and they are plenty loud and keep up with my alpines...

QUOTE and what is the diffrence between "2-way" "3-way" "4-way" ?? 2-way- have a small sub and midrange 3-way- small sub, midrange, and tweeter 4-way-havent checked into them much, but it will probley have 2 tweeters instead of one. i have 3-way's in mine and there are perfect for me, and i listen to all kind of music, but i have two kicker L7 12's in mine so the bass is all the way down on the speakers. It get pretty loud w/o an amp, so with an amp it will be amazing! -------------------- ![]() |

these wil fit and they will handle all the power you have. my suggestion is to go to a reputable auto sound dealer and listen to different setups. a lot depends on your head unit. by the way, the infinitys will sound way far better than the alpines. |
