Decent Speakers

These speakers are of good quality and sound clear, but they almost no low end. They could possibly have more with an amplifier, but I'm not sure.

great product

Great sounding speakers! Highs are very crisp, mid range is awesome...not the bassist speaker but that's what subs are for.
Can't go wrong with these speakers.

Perfect Fit

There was some concern if these would fit in my Ford Explorer. The system stated they would not however that was inaccurate. It was a perfect fit and we did not have to drill any new holes.

Decent budget speakers. Sound alright on Deck Amp.

I have these in a rear door speakers to replace the stock ones. If you have a good amplified pair of speakers in the front you don't need anything fancy in the back so these are great. They fit the Ford door panels (5x7) perfectly.
Currently powered off of an Alpine deck and they only distort at high volumes. Bass and high end are lacking but midrange is good.

Great Product

I bought these to replace older B.A. speakers in the back of my car. No complaints, great speakers for the price.

Boston all day everyday

Great speakers, very loud very clear. However, if your trying to get bass out of em, id look elsewhere. If you have a sub, then there are no better speakers in my opinion. But they will distort if you try to run mid bass through them. As long as you keep them within their frequency range, perfectly loud and clear, and last forever.

Product Review

I find these speakers perform very well under stress, crisp, clear sound. I recommend these to all who are considering purchasing new speakers.

GREAT SPEAKER, GET THEM WHILE YOU CAN

I AM A BIG FAN OF BOSTON ACOUSTICS, I HAVE A PAIR OF THEIR $3500.00 VS336 TOWER SPEAKERS AND THE VS335 CENTER IN MY FAMILY ROOM. THEIR CAR AUDIO IS RIGHT ON PAR WITH THE HOME AUDIO, WHEN I LEARNED THAT BOSTON WAS GOING OUT OF THE CAR AUDIO BUSINESS I WAS VERY SAD. YOU COULD ALWAYS COUNT ON THEM FOR A SUPERIOR PRODUCT. SO I BOUGHT THE SC85 5X7 SPEAKERS AND THE SR80 5X7 PLATE SPEAKERS AND THE G110 SUBWOOFER JUST TO REDO ONE OF MY VEHICLES BEFORE THEY WERE NO LONGER AVAILABLE. NEEDLESS TO SAY THEY ALL SOUND GREAT AND BOSTON WILL BE MISSED IN CAR AUDIO.
