Customer Testimonial

SONIC has the best prices, and fast shipping. This was my second purchase. This time I got new Front & Rear speakers for my truck. I installed them the day they arrived and they sound great. No need to ever go anywhere else looking for equiptment.

These are good speakers. I installed them in my single cab truck, so it filled the small space really well. I wish the mid ranges were a bit stronger, but the tweeters were great. Combine these with some 6x9's behind the seats and it would have been perfect. They look plain, which is both good and bad (depending on what your taste is)....I did have to modify the metal door frame to fit the speakers, (I guess since these are technically "oversized" 6 1/2"'s I should have expected it). Besides that, the installation was smooth and I never had any problems with them after installation. The built in crossovers also helped, since I didn't have to buy external ones.

I paired these up with a JVC XR810 head unit using NO amp. You don't need an amp using these speakers and a good quality head unit. Mine is rated at 20 watts RMS and 50 watts max. They sound very clear, much better than coaxial speakers! They are very loud using just the deck. Excellent highs with nice mids. Im very impressed with the quality in construction and sound. Trust me when I say get these!

I'm using these in my 04 Tahoe, front and rear doors. They get extremely loud for the money and have pretty good midbass as well. I'd recommend them for sure!

I bought these to put into a vehicle I was selling. They sounded ok. These were ran off of a basic head unit and paired up with some 4x6's in the rear. I'm sure they would sound better with a complete system with a sub and ran off of a good amp.
