These speakers sound great. They look nice, too. The bass is quite good yet they are still very clear. They seem very well made and they should last quite a while. I recommend these speakers to anyone on a budget but still want great sound.

I installed these in the front doors of my 2008 Ford F-150. Even using the factory CD player, these speakers jam. Clear, but not tinny highs, and really solid lows from a 6 X 8" speaker. I use these in conjunction with a 10" Dub Sub, and my SLAYER will wake the dead. They are equally impressive for Segovia or Yo Yo Ma.

I recommend these speakers...especially if you are having difficulty in affording the top of the line anything...I needed moderate speakers for my 06 F350 crew cab, replacing the stock 6x8s...I have an older amp waiting for a clean install later at 65rmx4 at 4ohms...but for now, the stock head unit (with steering wheel controls and short arms) is pumping 16watts rms x4 and they sound cleaner, warmer, higher, and lower than stock 4ohms at 25 watt rating...I couldn't believe the difference in mid bass and bass...I really think they are reaching their rated 52Hz in my sealed doors...I enjoy techno/electronica/ and some classic rock (zepp/ozzy/halen/etc..) they do great here too because the midbass is warm and has some pressure...I may not need to add the 6.5 midbass drivers I have from previous install...the highs sound nice, but too bright at times...can't wait to add some clean power and cross them over on the amp high pass at 50 and then on up as needed...I've had em'in my truck (4 new ones) for 1 business day and gave em' country/rock/trance/heavy metal/and even an audio book today...can't wait for tomorrow...these will do for a long time until I wait for some separates but need to fab some fiberglass door panels (infinity kappa)..hope this helped....features was 4 for non swivel tweets in center...overall was 4 because of bright highs at times...

I own a F150 and purchased these for all four doors. I had the benefit of using them with the stock HU and then using them with an aftermarket HU.
differences:
stock HU -
PROs: tad bit more crisp, added deep bass notes, that i never knew doors speakers could produce. MAX'd volume and these guys didn't crack, distort, or fade.
CONs: there is not enough power(expected, using OEM HU) although sound SQ was improved lack of volume sucked!
Aftermarket HU -
PROs: louder, brings out the full sound of the speaker.
CONs: slight brassy sound, had to adjust the HU's tone and filters, and a slight tweak on the iPOD's EQ and it was remedied, but again they need more power. eventually I will add an amp to these. Turnign these up past 3/4 they start to distort(HU defect not speaker).

final note,
aside from the very slightest brassy sound, these speakers are great for the price!!!
all in all very pleased, price and value!

also these are "MARINE" speakers?? so I opted not to use baffles? pro or con i don't know? So far so good. I did add dynamat to the inner skin of the door. moutning i had to bend a few tabs to have correct fitment in the rear doors.

there are tons of name brand speakers out there and Polk is one brand not many have heard about. i got two pairs of these speakers in my F150 and they sound awesome. not only do they sound great but they are pretty good looking as well. this is a great buy and you wont be disappointed.
