Customer Ratings & Reviews

I put these in a 2001 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer

I must say these were a big improvement over the stock speakers. I matched these with a new HU Pioneer SPH-DA210 Appradio 3 so now my truck sounds awesome.

good range

At first encounter after install, music sounded like the upper frequencies dominated compared to the OEM speakers. I thought, these sound like cheap computer speakers! But I tweaked the EQ on the head unit to favor bass, and the range was once again balanced. Well, the upper range of the music was much clearer than OEM. Lows are pretty good, not muddy. I added a foam enclosure between the door sheet metal and the speaker (cut out the back) which may have damped the bass resonating through the door, which may have made the original speaker sound muddy in comparison.

Great Value, Excellent Shipping

Great value when comparing to other sites. Model blows away the factory speakers and for the quality of the sound versus price paid makes it an outstanding value. Shipping from Sonic was delivered ahead of scheduled delivery date. Sonic Tech Support was timely to get in contact with and very helpful with answering my installation questions.

Can't beat it!!!

I have a 1997 Ford F150 Extended/Supercab. It was the first time I had upgraded the sound system since we got it. I put them in with the old factory radio, and they sound SO AMAZING!!! I usually listen to dub-step and music with some good bass, and I usually have it pretty loud. For the size of it, it really puts out some good bass!!! I highly doubt you are going to find a better 6x8 speaker! Don't let the price deceive you, PLEASE!!! You will be missing out on a great deal and even greater speakers!

Bitchin

Made my old beater trucker sound like a million bucks, a great up grade from the 20 year old ones that sounded like a cow farting. Good price and easy to install.

Sound is amazing. Loud and crispy.

I highly recommend the 6x8 Pioneer speakers. I have them in my 94 Mustang and sounds loud over my V8 engine. Even with my stock amp it sounds good. Also I recommend Kenwood X597 radio combination. Thanks Sonic for low price and good quality. =)

Sound great

They fit good and sound great. Good performance for the price.

Pioneer TS-A6885R

I bought a pair of these from Sonic and installed them and I was so happy with the performance of the speakers AND the quick delivery, that I ordered another pair the following week.

great upgrade

I replaced my factory speakers with these speakers. The factory ones gave a distorted sound and with these everything is much clearer.

Perfect bass sound

Perfect sound quality with best best price.It fits Mazda3.

nice

I bought 2 pairs of these for my van and they sound great. Had them 6 months so far and no complaints. Sounded so good I bought some for my brothers truck. He has nothing bad to say either.

great speakers for their value

The difference from my stock speakers to these is night and day. These get twice as loud without running into the same distortion I was getting with my stock ones. Also if powered correctly and tuned right they actually do beat pretty good. For mids and highs these are what you are looking for

WOW!!

Great price, wonderful site helped me find the exact fit for my vehicle.
Outstanding highs and lows.
Of course Pioneer has been around for many years and still brings the sound to ones ears.
I would recommend this to everyone looking to upgrade from stock speakers.

great upgrade

2 pair for the price of one. Amazing sound great upgrade from my factory premium in my 2001 ford f350 sd.

great product!

Great sounding product. Perfect combo along with the pioneer 6400 in dash!

Awesome product

Works great, great quality of sound. Easy to install and wonderful.

Good speakers, cheap price

Used these speakers to replace two blown stock speakers in my 2010 Ford fusion se. Installed these myself using the metra 72 5600 speaker harness. Excellent speakers for the price. Extremely easy to install. I will be purchasing another row speakers to replace my other speakers (in working condition) in the near future for better sound quality.

Very impressive

Wired in my explorer months before swapping it with multiple fiber glassed 6 1/2s. Even off of a headunit they surprised me with their clarity and output. Impressed.

Okay

I bought these speakers for my Crown Victoria back in February. They were easy to install and set up with the manual.

The pros: They look good and fit properly with the adapter that they come with. Decent sound, I got the 4-way speakers and the tweeters get annoying on some songs. They distort on high volumes, not too clear but not cheap sound either.

Cons: Would be that they don't last long. One of the speakers is distorted already and it's only been 6 months. They started acting up 2 months ago but now it sounds bad.

They're good speakers if you're on a budget, I would recommend them to anyone. At $40-$60 a pair, I don't mind switching them out every 6 months.

Excellent quality for the price.

Even if you don't have a blown speaker like I did, these speakers are definitely worth the purchase to replace factory speakers. I replaced my factory speakers in my 2012 Ford Escape and it makes a huge difference. Broader range of sound and clarity.

Great sound

Speakers sound great! Nice to have full sharp crisp music playing again. Install was easy. Get the wiring harness adapter so you don't need to cut wires.

Not bad...better feed it more power than a H/U offers

These speakers sound great...once I added in a Alpine Power Pack. Just pure HeadUnit power starves these things and you get no low end. Post-Powerpack install, the full range speaker sounds full range.

Since they are 4-way, they still pack a ton of high end and you may want to tweak down that end since it can get a little sharp to the ears with high-hat reproduction.

Pioneer Review

These pioneers are a great bang for the buck. They sound good. Only some small complaints. I don't think the power rating is right. They don't seem to be able handle the power of my amp and its only a 750 watt Kenwood 4 channel amp at about 60 watts RMS per channel. The amp is turned at half gain with all the settings on my head set down... Don't get the wrong idea they come in nice loud and clear...Just watch the power and get the settings right and they will last you a long time. Pioneer has always been a reliable brand that I have trusted for years. If you want it LOUD and ear blasting you may want to look some where else.

great speakers

I bought these as the last part of an install, they went into the front
doors of my Ford Ranger.
I have Pioneer 2ways in the back, and a Pioneer DD hu, 50wx2.
These have pizeo tweeters, what used to be called "supertweeters"
back in the day, you put them on top of your loudspeaker.
Was worried about having four in a small truck, seemed like overkill.
Shouldn't have worried.
These speakers sound great, supertweeters are basically about cymbals, tamboreens, whistles. I did not put them in the back, you don't
get much treble from behind you. But they present a great soundstage
in front.
And Mids and bass is great also, don't need the graphic eq at all.
Sonic had the best price, and they also have speaker connectors that
make for a professional install, not to mention prevent wiring
a speaker backwards, or out of phase, which destroys bass. If your
vehicle uses a speaker connector, you need these, makes for an easy time of it when installing. Took me about half an hour.
Sonic and Pioneer, a great combo, and don't forget the Metra speaker
connects, best money you will ever spend

GREAT VALUE

I installed this in my 99 mustang, after previous owner cut and removed harnesses and factory amps. perfect fit under package tray. sounds great now. A+ .

great price and value!!

awsome product at low prices!! very satisfied with the spaekers!! going to use them with just the reciever for a while to loosen them up a bit then hook up the amp!! thanks for the fast shipping!!

Great

This products is great and they sound awesome. They came on time. The fit was perfect too.

excellent!!!!

These speakers are awesome they really delivers a super clear and loud sound and the price is super nice I definitely recommended to any body that is looking for a great speaker,thanks !!!!!!!!

Great replacement for factory speakers

I used these Pioneer speakers to upgrade the audio in my 2012 Mazda 3. The audio shop tech said I would NOT notice much difference compared to the factory speakers but he was wrong. I guess he just wanted me to buy some overpriced speakers from him! Right away I noticed a BIG improvement in how my stereo and CD player sounded. The bass is more pronounced and all sounds became crisper, with more detail. I'm very happy. The audio shop said they had to improvise with the install a little bit because the factory speakers on my Mazda were flat, while these Pioneers have some depth to them. So, they're not a direct replacement. I didn't experience any problems after the install though, everything (including my electric windows) works as it should. The cone is made of paper, not the magnet is much bigger than the one on my old factory speakers.

Did not Fit!

The speakers when tested sound dope!! Great Bass Response, no distortion and crisp highs!! I just wish they fit my car.

Great speakers!

I installed these in my 2012 Mazda 3 and even without a sub or amp, the sound has considerably improved. I have more bass and better tremble. My factory stereo sounds now as if it's a part of a premium audio package ;) Recommended!

good upgrade

Very good radio, plenty of good tuner settings. The HD radio works good on it. Sound is clean and clear, powerful too. Still can't get the jvc Android app to work. But who cares.

I'd recommend this radio to anyone. Has all the features anyone would want!

Pioneer TS-A6872R - Great Speakers! Great Price

These speakers were a great deal for me. I installed them in my 2002 Ford Explorer is about 2 hours. It was a lot easier than I thought it would have been and they sound great.

Great Upgrade for stock speakers

Had a defective speaker in my wife's 2006 Ford Escape. Liked them so much that I changed out all four speakers. Awesome sound. Great bass! Have also since installed them in my 1999 Taurus. Figured If I was going to drive an older car that I may well spoil myself. Paired them up with the JCV HDR60 and the sound is great!!!

Good speaker

These speakers have a lot of clarity. I replaced my stocks on my 2011 truck with these, and the difference was noticeable. When you buy Pioneer you can't go wrong. Quality and affordability.

Best bang for the buck!!!!

these speakers have the ability to hold up to the treatment that any radio could put them through..Value,price,and durability are top notch.....

really good

i have had these for about 4 months and they great. really good highs and pretty good lows. i also have pioneer 6.5s in the doors and they sound so good and now im about to buy some pioneer 12s. good speakers for a really good price

People will hear you coming!!!!

I would recommend these speakers as they are very good speakers with great highs, mids and overall the lows. I was impressed with the bass they put off. I have a kenwood stereo with no amp hooked up to the pioneers and it kicks hard with it! I turn it all the way up and there is no distortion at all except a little if its at maximum. There is no need for an amp unless you have a cheap stock stereo or a crappy stereo. If you have a good aftermarket stereo there is no need for an amp unless you want to blow them real quick. I put these 6x8's on my 97 mercury mystique and it is about 4 times better than the cheap paper made speakers. The bass still hits hard out of the box but they seem as though they will improve over time. So give them time before you judge them. When I turned them up with the bass all the way up I closed the windows and walked away from the car and I could hear them shaking my doors and the windows and it seemed as though i had one 10" or 12" sub in the trunk. They can be heard from up to 15-30 feet away or even farther! Although I do have a 12" speaker powered with an amp but it was turned off when I tested it. They hit like mini subs and will make your windows and door rattle because of the bass. Also, if you have subs they will keep up with it! I mostly depend on these speakers for the mids and highs and some lows but I let the sub take care of that.

Pros: Very good bass for little speakers (mini subs), great mids and highs also. Sounds like they will last for years to come depending on how you treat them.
Cons: I did have to strip the factory wires to put these in. Other than that they fit perfect. I would suggest you to use the stock screws that come with your stock speakers to hold them in place as the screws that come with them are a little bit thinner and the stock screw holes may vary. It is also best to look at the color of the wires and take note of the positive and negative color wires before stripping to make sure that you don't connect the positive with the negative wires and fry the head unit(stereo).

Get these speakers while supplies last!

Awesome Buy!

I just installed these today in my car. I had to replace my blown factory speakers. These speakers are fantastic. They are about 3 times better than factory speakers too. They have a very full sound to them and they are very smooth and crisp. I like them a lot. The install was a breeze too. For 50 bucks, these compare easily to Alpine. Can't go wrong with Pioneer! If you want some great sound and you are just running them off of a factory or aftermarket stereo, get them!

PIonner

LOVE THEM got some in my F150 Defintly a step up from my stock speakers hookwd up QUICK recommend to anybody and everybody

Great for the Price

I bought these and am impressed by the sound. I have them wired to my pioneer deck and they sound great. I would recommend these to anyone on a budget and want some kick butt sound. I bet they will sound even better when I hook them up to an amp.

Great value

This product has very good sound, and is an easy fix with speaker adapter, for my ford focus it was ok, and the sound is great.

hot buy

i own these. they sound excellent in my grandmarquis. price is cheap shipping was 6 days. w****** wanted way too much for speakers got em cheap here waiting on my head unit now thx sonic

Good speakers

i bought 2 pairs of these (4 speakers) from a local dealer and there really good. i've had them for almost a year in my ford ranger. they haven't blown yet. they handle power pretty good. decent bass from these things :) and good loudness with almost no distortion. Good speakers good price i recommend

Would take these rather than my kickers

I have two of these in the back of my 2003 Ford Escape and I love them. The sound quality is good but not great but the fact that they are 3-ways really improves the quality of my music. The range of these speakers is wonderful an couldn't ask for better. They even have more bass than my Kicker KS680's. The Kickers still have better quality but these Pioneers are definitely rockin, which says a lot considering how much lees these Pioneers coated in comparison to the Kickers. The surround is flimsy like past reviewers have mentioned but I you won't have to worry about that unless you have a pretty decent amp going to them. I would most likely buy these again, I even considered buying my friend some Pioneers for him as his graduation present.

Pioneer TS-A6872R 6

Definitely was an upgrade from my factory speakers in my F-150. They sounded good but not great. I am sure they would sound better with an aftermarket stereo. I like pioneer but next time would spend a little extra money and get a higher end pioneer speaker

Great Value and Great Sound

My customer was very happy with the cost and quality.

Alpine CDE-102 car sterio deck

Love this deck.....Great service.....highly recommend the buy!!! Also, buy an iPod cord with it....worth the $26 or so dollars. I mostly use my USB slot and my iPod so this deck is perfect for me. May eventually get the blue tooth attachment. HIGHLY RECOMMEND A+ seller

great speakers for the price

They fit in my ford excursion with no problem they sound great with just the radio pushing them

love em

i've had mine for over a year and a half and i love them

awesome!!!

the sound the speakers produce are crisp and clean for the vocals

GREAT speakers!!

I put these in my 07 F250 Harley Davidson about 6 months ago and the change in sound was incredible! Noticeable right away. I changed both front and rear speakers. Excellent highs, mids and more bass. I've since switched out the factory headunit with a nice Pioneer double din and the sound quality has increased even more. These speakers are definitely worth the money. Can't beat the price for the great change in sound. 4 screws hold each speaker in and they use the existing holes the factory speakers use, so no drilling or guessing. I'm still very pleased with the purchase.

Perfect buy

I ordered a total of four speakers for my car of this type and I didn't go wrong. I was skeptical for the price, but they sound great. Without a standalone sub in the car, these things still hit pretty nicely when it comes to bass. Highs are great, mids and lows are very good as well. For the price, definitely worth it.

Fine speaker for the money

Summary:

Pros: kick very hard when driven by an external amp. Strong, satisfying, punchy mid bass.
Cons: So so off the head unit amp, no crossover or even caps to separate frequencies.

These speakers can provide surprisingly good midbass. Loud, clear, and without distortions. Mids and highs are clear and balanced but not as good as those of Infinity speakers. Give these speakers adequate power and they'll really surprise you. However, when running off the head unit amp, they're nothing special IMHO. Recessed highs and mids, and bass that's only tiny little bit better than the factory speakers. My other complaint is that there is no crossover or even capacitor to separate frequencies, so the woofer and tweeters are being fed the whole spectrum.

Great over Stock speakers

I bought these for a 2002 f150 supercrew which they are a direct replacement. They were extremely easy to install and sound so much better than the stock speakers. They bring the music to life. They handle a good amount of power with out distorting and still sound awesome cranked up. Hands down one of the best values for the money if your looking for a Ford or Mazda direct replacement.

Great Speakers, Great Price, Great Deal!

I would definitely recommend these speakers to anyone who is on a budget. They sound great from my factory ones. I drive a 96 regular cab ranger and the sound is great. It takes about 30 mins to install.

awesome most bang for the buck

these are awesome speakers they sound great in my 93 ranger had the needed wiring to fit in didnt even take an hour to install

Good, not great.

I have these in my '97 EXT cab Ranger. I have them in back, because I have higher quality Kickers in front. I have to be honest, I was extremely happy with the amount of money I spent on these and in exchange, I was greeted with just about the same quality as the factory speakers. The woofer cone feels very flimsy, and I am pretty wary of having too much bass going to them for fear of ripping the surround. I could and would recommend better speakers for the money.

Good Sound for the Money

The speakers sound good with crisp high notes and decent mid and bass for a standard speaker

Superior Quality!!

The speakers are amazing! They are nothing short of legendary Pioneer quality. If you put them in the right environment they will be the best coax speaker 6x8 you will ever own! I have had mine for about 18 months and they have never let me down and usually surprise! i have mine in my 01' Ranger. I have Boom Mat speaker baffles behind them and the doors and inside door panel covered in Stinger sound deadened. Both of these great products and the speakers make superb sound quality! Pioneer makes the best speakers under $200 period! If you are on a budget, Pioneer speakers would be the best choice by far! I also put the 6.5" version in my girlfriend's 01' Camaro without the sound deadener and they still sound amazing! Just be sure to spend the extra $20 for baffles! It will make a world of difference for your install!

Overall 5 stars across the board!

Good Value

Speaker installation was very easy. Overall sound quality is much better than the factory speakers.

Amazing speakers

I just got a pair of these today and hooked them up in my mercury grand marquis and they are simply awesome! The bass from the woofer is great and the midrange and the tweeter have great clarity. They're smooth and clear when the volume is low but when you crank it it just gets better zero distortion and loud sound that can be heard blocks away. As I have only had them 1 day I'm not sure on durability but they are pioneer and they make excellent quality stuff. I'm sure these will sound even better after they're broken in. These are great speakers so if youre looking for quality sound at a price you won't double take on pick these up.

Good Speaker

Good speaker for price; using in rear doors of Sport Trac and handles everything my KDX 993 can dish out. Only complaint is that the lows overpower the highs compared to the front speakers. Contemplating a subwoofer with crossovers into the speakers low range to compensate...
