I bought theses speakers with confidence, because made by Alpine, and these speakers sounded way better than expected. For only 5 1/4" speakers, they have pretty good bass as well

Pros - Very clear sounding with great highs, awesome mids and good lows
- Great price for what you get
- Replaced my Infinity speakers

Cons- Absolutely none!


Recommended to anyone!

These speakers own up! They have excellent sound quality and they can get loud! You can crank these speakers and they will not distort and the music stays extremely clear. Well worth the price and very durable. I recommend these speakers to anyone who want to have the best in clarity!

Great speakers put in my girlfriend's Honda Civic. Speakers have clear crisp sound for the price. Delivery was great as well. I would say to anyone that ask that they would be wasting money on anything else.

I have used Alpine products for years in many vehicles. The reason why I used these this time was Sonics recommendation. I like this company and it's personnel so I trust their judgement. Thank you Alpine for a great product and thanks Sonic for the great customer relationship I enjoy with you.
