these speakers are the best, not only do they look sexy but they hit. for all of those idiot who said they smoked and blew soon afer hooking them up dont know what they are talking about. high quality speakers like these need time to break in before you go all out with them. they need a minimum of at least 3 weeks at half power or less or they will blow. if you give them time to break in, you'll have them rattling every house on the block for years to come. these are great speakers and i highly recommend them,
