The price for my stereo deck was cheaper here then any other site and they also included a harness kit which saves you time and money. This kit worked well and looks good. There prices are good and shipping was fast.

These speakers are simply the best I have ever owned. I have had Infinity components but the Focal's are very very good. The sound quality is very clear. I would highly recommend these speakers. I completely noticed the sound improvement, using the same amplifier and same deck. Awesome very great sounding speakers.

I had several convincing experiences with sonixelectronics. I purchased a set of Focal 165vb components speakers for my vehicule, they are among the best quality I ever heard and I stole them at a ridiculous price from them! I would recommend this store to everyone, including family & friends. And I would suggest the Focal car audio for all stereo upgrades.

I got a pair of these in a 2003 ford mustang running passive and Rey sound grate. They don't get to loud but they are a nice set of components for the price

I replaced another component set purchased from Sonic (Massive Audio CK 69, weak mids was the reason) with this one. Application, Nissan Frontier stock speaker location, fronts, 6x9 in the door and tweeters in the dash. Michael at Sonic strongly recommended these focals for the task, as he stated he has these in his car. I'm glad he did, what a difference. I have these focals running off an Alpine PDX-F4 (100 w rms each channel). Overpowering, a little, but turned the gain down to compensate. What a difference. I turned down my subs all the way to just tune (set the amp gain) on these. These 6.5's make my outside mirrors move just a little with mid-bass! Crystal clear mids and highs. Thanks Michael and thanks Sonic Electronix!
