Boss SE552

This is the first time I have purchased truly cheap cars speakers and it will also be the last time. I bought a second car (beater) and since the 18 year old facotry speakers were shot I decided to try some cheap replacements. The high-grade materials of these Boss speakers sold me on them. However high-grade materials mean little when one of the speakers arrives with a bad voice coil.

In short, you get what you pay for and in my case I got 1 working speaker and 1 that sounds worse than the 18 year old paper oem speaker with the foam surround completely missing. Caveat emptor.

Replaced front door speakers in my 97 Volvo 850 GLT with the SE552's. The screw holes didn't line up perfect so I drilled 2 new holes through the plastic mounts, no big deal. My connectors fit fine but were a little loose so I secured them with electrical tape. The speakers sound great powered by my low-end head unit though it's only pushing 40Wx4. They will distort at high volume just like any other speaker in this price range. If you need cheap replacement speakers and you're not too picky I'd say this is your best bargain for brand new speakers.

I bought a set of Boss SE552 from Sonic Electronix and they work great. Cheap price too. I would recommend Sonic to anyone looking to buy audio system.

These speakers have great range and handle the loud as well as the softer frequencies coming through them. They were easy to install and hook up. These speakers continue to ensure there is music in my life.

the value is high, they sound pretty good for what they are
