I have a pair of these n the rear doors of my trucks. Right now they r runnin off a pioneer DEH-P6000UB HU and they sound alright. They r alot btr then the stock but they do not get as loud as I would like. Im hoping tht when I install the amp for them i will get btr responce. All in all a decent buy

i got 4 of these in my car and it sounds so much better. i started with heavy subs so you couldn't hear anything else besides bass. but once i got these things in everything became clearer.

I made a custom speaker box with these capping a bass tube with two 6X9's in the middle with a fosgate amplifier powering the pair behind the seat of my old S-10 and I have to say they sounded amazing. Great depth for the size and the tweeters are downright unbelievable, and near indestructible, for that matter. I Would definitely suggest a pair of these for anyone.

These speakers have got to be the best sounding 6 1/2's I have ever had,well worth the cash! The highs are crystal clear w/no distortion and the bass is incredible. Surely live up to the name!
