I recently purchased these speakers to replace some failing factory paper speakers which had began to rattle and distort. I was very pleased with their overall performance. The high's come through beautifully and the mids are a great improvement.

I wouldn't rate these the best sounding speaker in the world, but for low power handling that most factory radios provide, they do great.

I purchased a pair of kicker speakers as well, 4x6 for my back seats, and they seem to handle bass a little better overall, even with factory power. However there is a price difference as well.

For the price, these speakers will do in a pinch!

I purchased these as replacements for the factory speakers in my 1996 Blazer. Installation was pretty simple and straight-forward. I can't say it was any harder or easier than any other speaker install. I do recommend using a bit of caution as the surround can tear if you're not careful as mine did. That being the case though, the 1/4 inch tear in mine has not affected the sound in any way.

For such an inexpensive speaker, I was not expecting the quality of sound. The rest of my system is a Pioneer CD deck and a 10" MTX Thunder 7500 sub and MTX amp. With all the bass from the sub, these speakers are still able to come through crisp and clear. They do take a bit of tweaking on head unit and crossover to prevent any bass distortion as some very deep lows will cause a bit of buzz, but that's to be expected with any 6.5" full range speaker. Mids don't get lost in the mix and highs cut through nicely.

You could pay more, but to get better quality, you'd have to pay a lot more. Over the years I've owned about 6 sets of full range speakers and the only ones that were better were a set of Polk's that I paid over twice as much for.

Moral of the story.....Awesome speakers + great price = unbeatable buy.

I would recommend these speakers to anyone looking to upgrade their factory speakers. They are perfect if powered by a factory system. They sound sweet, but if you got an amp, you should consider some Pioneers that support higher wattage.

I purchased these Pioneer speakers because the old ones in my car were going bad. I was skeptical at first because the price was low and these were only the regular base speakers. I bought them anyway and I'm glad I did. The sound quality was excellent for only regular speakers. If you want to have the volume to the max, then these speakers aren't for you. But if you want a great quality, low priced speaker that sounds good then I would definitely recommend these.

My Dual XDM6820 plays through these speakers. The Dual volume goes up to 45 but the speakers kinda max at a volume of 38ish. They're pretty decent. I do not have a sub so these speakers have to do the Low/Mid/High all together. They output very poor Low. I am getting a sub soon so that these speakers will have to work less and can focus on just the Lows and Mids for better sound quality. You can't clearly pick out the dynamics in the music because of the low quality but it's pretty nice for the price.

January 7, 2011 Great speakers for an average deck

I replaced my factory speakers in a 96 Honda Civic with minor modification (had to snip off the 6 outer mounting teeth). The factory speakers were fine for what I needed, but the outer seal (made of paper) had deteriorated and—though tape fixed the obnoxious buzz—required replacement.

I really like the sound of the material... not too artificial or 'tinny' thanks to the cloth and polypropylene acoustics. Carbon is nice, but it tends to reproduce a lot of ultra-high-frequency electronic noise that I find too noticeable for my liking.

Perfect power handling for a normal consumer deck in the mid range. I have these hooked to a >$100 Pioneer deck and couldn't ask for anything more without external amplification... But honestly, I don't feel like anything "better" is necessary since I have have a sub handling all my LFE.

Looking to upgrade my rear speakers soon with the corresponding 6x9s.

Nothing negative to say, definitely an upgrade from the factory papers. I can hear decent bass even at 60 and beyond with 4 of them in my Saturn l200. At $40, an awesome speaker.
