I purchased this speakers system to upgrade my OEM radio speakers on my 1997 BMW M3. I installed the speakers one at a time and then listened to the same music that I am familiar with. I first replaced the left 5 1/4 kick panel speaker and then listened to the music at different volume levels. I could only discern very slight improvement in mid bass. Got the same result with the right kick panel speaker. Just slightly tighter mid bass which may not be felt by an untrained ear. Next were the tweeters. Same procedure, one at a time, then listen for any improvement. This time was definitely a jump in improvement. I can better hear the cymbals, the esses coming out of the lips of the singer and hand movement of the guitar player sliding on the instrument. I decided to keep the system for this improvement alone. After completing the install, I rested a bit, sat in the drivers seat, and listened to the music in all it's entirety. Sound is better, but not to my delight yet. Next project, the head unit.

I had one set of these in my truck for about 1-1/2 years. They sounded fantastic. So when I upgraded my subs and mid-bass (two 15's and four 8's), I decided to get another set of the db5251's to keep up.
IMHO, these are the best value for any component sets on the market. I love the soft dome tweets. Never harsh. They are just really loud and clear. What more can I say.

I installed the Polk db5251 set to replace front speakers in an old Corvette. Midranges are in the stock location. Tweeters are mounted high on the doors. Despite being driven by only 14 watts RMS per channel, these speakers can put out considerable volume. They are efficient, sound fantastic, and are very clear. The sound is so good (paired with a new Pioneer AVH-3300BT) that I have no need for a separate amp.

I wanted marine rated component speakers because they are going into the fairing on my 08 Harley Ultra. I originally replaced stock ones with Hog Tunes front and back. The Polks far surpass the Hog Tunes for clarity and crispness, they also have better bass response. That is why I just ordered the coaxial version of these to put into my rear speaker pods. Thanks again to the people at Sonix for reasonable prices and top notch service!

I purchased the Polk Audio db5251. I tend to prefer Polk products because they sound great and are durable in the humid Houston heat. I bought them in the early Spring and they are lasting through their first Houston Summer. I've owned other Polk speakers in the past specifically because they last through several Summers before I have to replace them and the price I found them for here is really great!
