These speakers sound great!!! Very good sound quality with a neutral clean sound, no distortion at all even at very high volumes. Tight bass and good mid-bass and pleasant to the ears overall. They are in my front doors of my taurus and they compliment my rear drivers very well which are 3-way Rockford P1683s (great 3-way speakers with a deep rich sound that absolutely rock..also with no distortion at all...and these get loud!!!). I am using the stock stereo with a 4-way 60 Watt/Ch. amp and a 10" rockford sub & my system sounds awsome...Very Happy with these as well as the P1683s! Best speakers I've owned and a great value also. I would highly recommend them to anyone!
