Professional JBL Sound:
With the long history of professional audio equipment manufactured my JBL, it is no surprise that the Grand Touring Series (GTO) produce some of the finest sound available for car speakers. By integrating the majority of JBL's top car speaker technology, these speakers are able to effectively deliver truly stunning audio, while keeping the price affordable for everyone. For those that are looking for a quality car speaker that will not only sound great, but also keep more money in your pockets. Put your trust in JBL and these Grand Touring Series speakers.
Tweeter-Level Adjustment with Unipoint:
The tweeters on the GTO series speakers are an excellent example of JBL's advanced technology. Made from My/Ti (Mylar and Titanium composite), the tweeters offer a higher power handling, greater efficiency, and reduced distortion. To direct that sound where you want, JBL has designed a Unipoint rotating tweeter pod that allows the tweeter to be directed towards the listener. This results is better imaging and a more accurate sound stage. To top of the tweeter technology, JBL engineered a tweeter-level control switch that adjusts the tweeter dB output. This allows for more sound adjustments after the speaker is installed.

Sound quality is good, but i was expecting more in the bass department. Important to note that i am not running an amp with these speakers.

As expected, the engineers at JBL have produced a very natural sounding speaker. These speakers have a balanced natural sound to them. When driven by a quality head unit and amp, these speakers can be driven hard while maintaining their sound integrity. The balanced design allows the listener to fine tune or tailor the sound to his or her preference. JBL produces some of the best drivers and speakers for live performance venues. They obviously engineer some of the best car audio speakers, too!

Listed as a 6 x 8 speakers, but they truly are a 5 x 7 that fits original mounts. These speakers provide great bass response, the built in cross-overs and the adjustable tweeters make directing your sound correctly a breeze. I use a aftermarket Alpine with a 45 watt amp with Infinity 5 x 7 front and these GTO-8628 in the rear. Sonic's price made these speakers a no brainer.

for the price i couldnt beat it. decent bass responsce, mids were alittle muddy at high volumes, as with highs. a good head unit and amp should fix that hopefully. overall im happy with them, but i would get the 4 0r 5 way pioneers if i had to order again. id say middle of the road and price point for most, not awsome, deffinatly not bad. wayy better than stock :)

these are very accurate speakers (as mentioned above)...
Woofer Review:
the bass response is tight...no distortion to speak of...at full volume with the bass i get punchy, tight sounds that really give the music more of home stereo feel (which is what i want)...the vocals are very strong and don't get distorted at high levels...
Tweeter Review:
The way that the tweeters are designed is very practical...on normal setups it seems that the crispy highs get driven right into my shins...to the point of not really noticing them..with these GTOs you can adjust the angle of the tweeter so that the sounds can be driven upwards towards the driver so the highs don't get lost in the bass....and the tweeters are really sweat...again no fuzz or distortion just crispy highs...
i have a amp on order for them, but really off of the head unit they are A1 components....I HIGHLY recommend these to budget shoppers and audiophiles alike...
