They are power hungry and mounting depth is something to double check but will crank out some very accurate and powerful sound.

These are great speakers for the money. Excellent quality but they do need to be amped for their full potential. They can take a beating.

I've had these for a few months now and I couldn't be happier... I have 2 Infinity Kappa 12s in the back being pushed by an underrated 600w amp and I wanted something that could keep keep up... these do more than keep up. They sound absolutely amazing and the amp I have running to them is only pushing about 70w to each speaker, can't wait to get a better amp and I am honestly surprised that the one I have isn't holding them back like I thought it would.

I haven't heard any similarly priced component sets to compare these to but I have had nothing but compliments since I got them, a few people have even gone as far as to say it was the best car stereo they've heard (which is believable since most people around here just have underpowered coaxials, no midbass, and overpowering bass).

I have 2 sets of Alpine SPR-17S speakers in my 98 Dodge Dakota. I don't have a whole lot of power going to them , but the sound great. Especially for the price! I got a whole lot of bang for my buck with this purchase! Thanks Sonic!
