2011 Pioneer A-Series Car Speakers
Improving on the previous design of the Pioneer A-Series speakers, the new 2011 Pioneer TS-A6974R prove to be a big step forward for the already award winning speakers.

Def pick these up. they def fill in the rear of your vehicle and the sound is crisp. I have them hooked up to 100watts rms and they sound great. The bass is suprisingly good for 6x9's Great price sonic!

Excellent Quality Yet Affordable

I have a pair of these on a portable Jambox that I made, and the sound quality has impressed even high-end users that have heard this Jambox. It is complemented by a pair of 6-1/2" w/ tweeters as well. Overall I highly recommend these speakers.

Great 6 x 9's For Running Off Deck Power

The most common Pioneer 6 x 9's I'm seeing in stores and on websites seem to be the 6964's, which are just a notch below these 6974's. I went with these because the 64's have a lot reviews that they sound good but lack bass. The few reviews I read on these 74's is that they have good bass.

The overall sound quality is good. No complaints. I would describe the bass as more mid-bass. It's plenty loud and punchy, but the bass doesn't sound like a small subwoofer. Now, that could be due to my HU boosting bass at 60hz (the lowest it will go). I don't know. If you're on a tight budget and can't afford subs, these provide good audible bass. But if you want real bass, you'll need at least one sub.

In hindsight, I would have probably been fine with the 64's since I'm getting subs and an amp soon. But the great mid-bass will still be appreciated. The higher mids and highs are good on these as well. These are efficient speakers as well. I'm powering these with my JVC KW-R500 head unit (20 watts RMS x 4) and the power is plenty. Running these off an amp would seem completely unnecessary to me.

Bottom line - if you're looking for great lower priced 6 x 9's to run off of a HU, these are great. I'm glad I bought them.

Lots of Value - Great Sound

Six months ago I purchased the Pioneer TS-A6974R speaker pair to replace OEM Pioneer rear deck speakers in my wife's 2002 Mazda Protege after upgrading her stock stereo to a JVC. Install was quick. I choose to purchase harness adapters to avoid soldering new connectors. Sound is greatly improved over the OEM paper Pioneers and work great with the Pioneer TS-A4674R I installed in the doors. Crisp with clean base, even with all the road noise of a Protege. I highly recommend these as a step up from bargain prices speakers. Great sound, great value.

Excellent Buy

I would definitely recommend this product to anyone. I purchased this set for my 2002 Chevy Impala and they sound amazing. For 6x9's they have surprisingly good lows as well as crystal clear mids and highs. Will continue to be a true Pioneer fan!!

Great Value

I bought these speakers online and have been very pleased with my purchase. They were $20+ cheaper than anywhere else I could find them online. They were completely brand new and still in the package. The speakers themselves pack a great punch and sound amazing. They are very clear and still pack a great bass punch. I would recommend this product to anybody. I bought these to replace some Sony Xplode speakers and can definitely tell the difference.

Pioneer Speakers

I purchased these speaker about 6 months ago. I must say it was money well spent, this product was delivered on time and I was informed on the status of it's location while in transit. The performance of the speakers if great!! They are very clear and loud, I turn up my radio almost all the way and you can tell the speakers can handle so much more. I would recommend these to anyone looking for a simple upgrade to there car audio system.
