High Quality
Under rated!! These speakers rock. Those who cry about difficulty of install need to learn the basics of car audio install. There is no plug n play. These components are high quality. I usually run "Higher" end brands and these have blown them away. Great audio, great peak and low push. All around a great deal for the money. I bought three sets. I will buy more.

Awesome as Always
This set of components are awesome to say the least. I have them on around 300 watts with a pair of re xxx 15s and are still super loud and clear. The mid range is nice and clean and the tweets are crisp and clear. Only thing that would have been cool is some sort of tweeter "grille". I'm going to have to be careful with placement because of the delicate silk domes that are fragile. Other than that it is a great set. Recommended over any other component set in my opinion.

great mid bass
purchased a set of these after my jbl ms62's crapped out. I was somewhat skeptical about the sound quality compared to the jbl's but figured the power handling capabilities was a fair trade off. All I can say is they sound great. Better than the jbl's. The thing I don't care for is the size of the tweet's. They could prove to be troublesome for some installs.

Ohh Yes, The elusive midbass has been found!
These are amazing, midbass you can hear and feel. Make sure you feed them though! Tweeters are great, their off axis performance is much better than on axis. They are big and require a 1.5 inch diameter hole to mount them in and at least a 2 inch diameter of a flat spot for them to sit flush, make sure you plan accordingly. The woofers are great! and very responsive. The woofers off axis performance is not great, but on axis WOW!, make sure you plan accordingly here as well, you will need spacers if placing in a door, I had 1.5" worth of spacer and my window squeaks by. The crossover is bigger than what you think, A little wider and shorter and deeper than a mac and cheese box, also, plan accordingly. I have heard many setups, for midbass these take the cake, tweeters could use some tweaking, but nothing to be sad about.

Great Output, Clean Highs
These mids can move! For a 6.5 they have insane excursion. Door prep is a given. I had to cut the stock 6.5 locations bigger to accommodate the basket and make a baffle secured with pop nuts but that's not a big deal. Fished heavy gauge speaker wire through door to handle 150rms, deaden doors. More time was spent trying to find a good place for these ridiculous large crossovers, All worth the effort. Mids are more impressive sounding than the tweets. Tweets still sound great by all means. Good product no regrets just know to put time in prep for these they are not drop in components. Installed in 09 Acura TL.

Good for Price
These speakers were my first component set in my 2007 dodge magnum ( custom adapters to fit in 6x9 mounting hole ) the woofers have a subwoofer appearance to them. The tweeters are very beefy and required a 3.5inch space to fit into the dash. crossovers are MASSIVE and look like they could be used to harness a lightning bolt. the woofers have very clean midbass and the crossover does well at separating the low and high frequencies with little user tweaking. tweeters did blow within a month of use but in fairness were over powered slightly. months later the tweeter capacitor in the drivers side crossover exploded like a gunshot on the 407 highway. cardboard everywhere in the unit. the woofers are the golden boy of this component set, if nothing else the woofers make this set well worth the money.

Great speakers!
I bought these speakers based off of reviews and I am very happy with them. They sound very good and have very good kick drum repoducion which is what I was going for. The are very deep!! Your basic 6.5" speaker spacers won't work because of the size of the basket. These speakers are impressive to say the least. The tweeters don't have much for mounting options unfortunately. Just surface mount. They are pretty shallow though. About 1/2" deep is all so not to bad. Just lack of aiming options. I put them in the pillar post. They don't sound to harsh and aren't ear piecing but are still very loud. I put them in a 2003 Chevy 2500hd front doors with manual windows and they barely fit but they fit without major work or spacers. As far sound I couldn't be happier. They won't replace a subwoofer in my opinion but paired with one everything blends great. This is my first set of components so I don't have much of a comparison opinion. The crossovers are big but they have some tuning options that others don't. I've two of these running off of a kicker zx850.4 (215rms @ 2 ohm) and they handle it no problem! These to speakers keep up with a alpine type X 10 with 1500 rms. Great product! I'm gonna buy another set just gotta find room for two more inside.

Sound great
I installed these this weekend and hooked them up to a CT sounds 125.4 amp. It puts out 190w@ 12.7 @ 2 ohms. These speakers suck that up and sound great. The mids are solid and highs are not ear piercing. Worth the money.

good bass
Ok I was looking for 2 pair of components for my vehicle. Changed a few and finally bumped into these. To the point speakers need to be amplified for best results. They have great bass and are pretty loud for 6.5" speakers. However I don't recommend 2 set's of these speakers just one. Tweeters sound just right. The reason I say one set it is because these speakers dont focus on vocal audio they give you more mid bass and highs but once you pair them with a set of good voice speakers to fill them in they sound out of this world. I put a set of the RE in the front and a set of Morel tempo 6 in the back and they complement each other you don't even need a sub. What one misses the other fills in they sound great.The RE speakers will require modification to make them fit due to their larger structure. Hope my experience helps you make a wise decision.

Best car speakers
I bought these speakers after long time of reading forums. I can only say that these speakers can handle a lot more than 150w rms. Im running them on alpine 4.150 with no distortion on highest level. Sound is very loud and clean, bass nice too! Dont worry about blowing them its just not possible:) Ive did distance clarity test, about 400m. Like i said, these speakers just the best on market! I owned and alpine spx17 pro, morels, focals, hertz, jl's, none of them was able to play so loud and clean.

well worth the price and the work
Not an easy plug and play install. The diameter required for the tweeters to sit flush is large, and you have to be mindful of the top mount clearance if you're putting the mid driver in your door that it wont clip the window, but this is the first set of components retailing under a thousand dollars that I'm happy with the sound quality on. The magnets are massive and can handle a lot of power and they have great excursion, but unlike some people are saying, I wouldn't recommend driving more than 150W RMS to these as even if they don't blow, you'll eventually warp the voice coils and the SQ will drop on you. I got a defective pair initially, but now I'm running these in both my front and rear sound stages. EQ is flat. 131W RMS rated x 4 from my digital amp and the sound is truly immersive.

Best components I've ever used. Very serious sound.
I was highly impressed by these drivers and I can honestly say, i'd have no problem forking out the money to get another couple sets. I've used Rockford Fosgate, Orion, Alpine, Kenwood, Pioneer and nothing can touch these. The lows are super super low and powerful and deep rich sound with plenty of highs. I'm extremely impressed with these and honestly, if you just had a regular cab truck and put an amp to a couple of these sets, you wouldn't even need subs.They hit that hard They can take all you can drive on them and never pop. Amazing.

sweet midbass
I only have 125watts rms x 2 on a pair and wow, they really sound amazing. After a long playtime they don't even get warm, I need to try 200-275 rms to see there full potential. They do not fit a stock 6 1/2" mounting hole and are fairly deep. I did moderate customizing to get them to work in my Lexus. They are paired with a set of focal components and really help the lower end. Great set of speakers for the money!

Xxx serious machines
I bought these planing on replacing my factory door speakers but when they came in the mail I was surprised at the depth of them they are just like a miniature subwoofer! And they are heavy too :) the sad part is that the basket for these things is about a1/4" larger than the 6.5" hole in my doors..so rather than modifying the door or making a spacer that might make them fit with out having the speaker extend past the door panel (I'd have to cut out the factory speaker grille) I decided to throw some mdf board together and make two seperate boxes to fit in the corners of the trunk in my hatchback...all I have to say is wow they are amazing both powerful accurate bass and verry verrrry clean sound quality. I'm running them off of the Re VLX 4150 amp which is alitttle over powered for the speakers but they handle the power with zero problems no distortion no overheating no anything I love Re products and strongly recommend these for anyone looking to maybe customize some door panels for thier ride or has space for them else where and is looking for a awesome mid range driver...
These are My #1 choice from now on... Oh and the boxes they are in are probably around... .15 to .25 cu ft don't know exactly I just threw the boxes together because I was so anxious to hear the speakers

Awesome little speaker
Just got a chance to install these in my 07 eclipse mated to a 4ch Kenwood. The bass is beyond impressive, the pictures on the Web make the surrounds look larger than they are, but none the less these flex. The tweeters seem to be high quality as well but there's just no getting enough highs with the included crossover.

Good bang for buck but not what I expected
Awesome comps. Very clean, lots of movement and decent low end. Those that say these can take the place of subs are on drugs. More mid bass than almost any 6.5 I've heard but you still need more. Way more. I have two sets, doors and deck. Each set getting around 200 from an old school power class. They take the 200 watts well but if they had as much balls as people say they did Id be able to play them full range. Tweeters are awfully quiet too. That was very surprising. Need more voice that's for sure. Well worth the 250 tho. I'd buy more...and prolly will since they are so cheap.

Amazing speakers,, BUT!
These are some of the best sounding mids I have ever heard in my life. Amazing mid bass and sound. Tweeters are OKAY. The biggest problem.... It is IMPOSSIBLE to fit these in your car door. They are massive. The depth and the magnet are just too much to fit in any door without seriously modifing your door or not being able to fully open your window. Get them if you love great sound and are willing to build their own kicks or boxes. They are rated at 150rms, but you cant run over 200rms without a problem to these things.

great speaker
I was a little skeptical to buy these because I have never heard any RE Audio product. These get loud enough to keep up with 2 12" type R's in custom ported box in my single cab sierra. I only have 1 set so thats pretty impressive since there is no distortion. i have it running from an old school memphis amp but i feel like it needs more. with that said dont be afraid to overpower these. i am looking at the us amps 4 channel amp and getting another set. also the sound quality and imaging is great, but since the tweeter does not swivel at all and the manget is so deep and large it took quite a bit of installation and hard work, so be prepared with a full day off to get these in your car. other than that this speaker has performed flawlessly and I recommend it to everyone

Great Sounding Speakers. Under-Rated!
These are the 2nd set of component speakers I've had in my Trailblazer SS and they sound amazing. Deliver tons of mid-bass and the tweeters are not over bearing or too harsh. I'm running these in the front doors which are sealed pretty well with Dynamat. I would definitely make sure you use some sort of sound deadening if you're going to run these. I run components in the rear also, Massive Audio CK6X, and these RE Audio XXX 6.5's are way more powerful than the Massive Audio's and deliver way more midbass. These speakers are powered by a Lanzar MNX460 amp, which is rated at 320W RMS per channel at 2 ohm and these speakers take it well. Do not be afraid to over power these speakers.

Amazing Speakers!!!
I was fortunate enough to use the RE Audio XXX6.5 Components in my vehicle,a 2005 Ford Crown Victoria that had a very wasted set of factory 6X8 speakers. I had to purchase a special speaker adapter that goes from the 6X8 to the 6.5 speakers..The problem I only had was the new adapters that were supposed to house the new 6.5 speakers were too small in some places and required some grinding of the plastic to get the speakers to fit. THESE SPEAKERS ARE HUGE!!!! And that really a understatement,so be sure you do some homework before you decide.
They will need at least a 3" space to fit them without any issues,and there heavy.so use the supplied hardware that is included. The performance of these speakers is just incredible,,clean highs and sub bass lows,a good 100watt per speaker set would do nice without the chance of any troubles. I have a set of these now in the front doors of my Crown Vic and in the rear doors (a little custom work to make them fit) and the RE6.9 Component set in the rear package tray deck. I don't have any subs yet,but with the set-up Iam running right now most people think I have one from the deep lows these speakers produce..I would definitely recommend these if you have the space to make them fit!

Great speakers
Wow what a pain to install, lol
Really worth the effort in the end. The tweets are natural sounding and are not harsh. I listen to a lot of rock/metal and these speakers do a great job. They give the drums and guitar a very full presence.

Chose these over my Focal 165v1
I am way too old to listen to the music at the sound level I do. I have used Boston Acoustic Pro 6.5's, Focal 165v1, and the list goes on. Yes, these require proper door preparation and proper amplification. Do not give these low ratings because you did not read the specifications for the speakers. Let a professional install them if you don't know what you are doing. I have a Soundstream Human Reign HRU.4 bridged powering these. They are incredible. Tweeter is smooth. Midrange breaks up a bit around 800khz running them well beyond their RMS so that is not the speaker's fault. On my system, I set my active crossover in my Pioneer NEX8000 at 63hz with 12db slope. The closer you set these to their low of 50hz, they get a bit muddy. But, I am running them at more than twice the RMS. At RMS, they sound amazing. Make sure you set your gain properly. If you don't know how, its not hard. Search it. Plenty of info, and it is not hard to do.

2 ohm treasure!!
These component set speakers are incredible!!
I have gone round and round trying to find the sweetest amp to get desired performance and they all work well..but with a 4 channel amp its best to run all 2 ohm or all 4 ohm. Of course JL Audio has great results but Hifonics x1200 runbing 300 watts per channel at 2 ohms sounds really good. AB amps are desired but not necessary and the different types of files whether it be non compressed files or internet radio like Pandora or Spotify you will hear a very big difference in the headroom these drivers will give you.
All in all the quality of sound at the power that these will handle at 2 ohms allows you to FEEL the music like no other...not even close.
I am very interested in hearing about other applications that you have found for these gems. Buy em and write a review. Enjoy these at this price because you'll have a very hard time finding anything close of this quality...
Love those mids!!!

Great package deal value.
I recieved this as part of a package deal. It is enough to cover the lid of my 98 Civic sedan trunk. This will clean up the sound of your lows by decreasing noise (rattles, distortion of sound, etc). This is the first step in noise reduction and everybody should start here.
I doubt it will create a noticable increase in sound from your speakers.
Very flexible, sticks like crazy! Easy to work with.

Great Price and Product
I found the price great for the product I got. Installation was very easy, product sticks very well (Remember to clean/prep the surface). I noticed a difference right away in my music as well as overall noise level while driving on the highway (Doors done - trunk is next). Not the thickest sound dampening out there but it def. helps :)

The battle against rattle
Got the sound dampening door kit with some speakers, the installer put it on the rear deck of my vehicle where my two rear speakers and factory sub are. The difference is night and day, expensive but quality, good to get with speakers or a sub.
