Nothing Beats BAs in a car

I got these speakers to replace the aging OEMs in my Maxima. I have owned BAs in the past and for my ear they are the only car speakers that sound like real speakers. Plus, they fill the car with great sound that doesn't strain the ears.

Very nice

I installed 4 of these (actually a pair of S65 and a pair of S65RC) in my '99 Altima. They sounded good right away, but as I upgraded the source they really shined. I went from the stock radio/CD to a JVC with HD Radio. They sounded good with the stock unit, very good with the JVC on FM, and excellent with the HD radio (didn't have a CD in the car during installation). They are very clear and sharp sounding, with respectable bass. I listen to hard rock much of it with a lot of bass (like Tool), and they do a decent job, but you'll need a sub-woofer if you want to rattle the windows insanely. Fitting them was a pain, but they eventually worked.

boston acoustic s65

Installed in a friends Toyota sequoia. Sounded ok with stock stereo. No lows. Would be great with some subs.

Good bang for the buck. All the five star reviews are due to it being so inexpensive. Again - good bang for the buck.

Amazing

These speakers sound beautiful. Boston Acoustics never disappoint me, and these are no exception. Very good quality sound. I do not have these things amped or anything and they can certainly play loud without distorting even just off the deck. Highly recommend Boston products.

Sick speakers

Throw em up on an amp and they go hard. I have 2 boston 6.5's and 4 6x9's in my car and when my sub blew the other day people thought I still had a 8 of 10" sub in my car cuz they hit pretty hard. only complaint is a had to alter my door so the'y fit, they are a lot bigger than stocks.

Awesome!

I know Boston Acoustics is building very fine speaker systems especially good for classical and jazz. As I thought, the sound is very well balanced and detailed. Very sweet mid and highs. Low frequencies are tight. Overall very low distortion, clean and sweet sound. Now I'm thinking replacing the original '01 Maxima stereo to maximize the ability of this speaker. Strong recommendation.

Great sound for a great price

My younger brother was reading the audio in his truck and I recommended these and a pair of S55s since he is just running them off of his head unit. He had purchased the head unit and a Sony 10" sub for his Dodge Dakota Sport and the stock speakers just couldn't keep up with the sub. He wanted something that he would be able to run off the radio, but would put out enough sound that he wouldn't have to turn down his sub and these great exceeded that need. The quality of these speakers incredible, especially at the price that sonic is selling them for.

Great Buy

Great sound for the money. Installed in my son's 2009 Corolla S front doors. Huge improvement over factory speakers. These are high quality and appear to have enough Bass for him. I like them, too.

Excellent value- Good sound

I know these are low-end speakers from Boston Acoustics, but these are far better than more expensive speakers I auditioned locally and compared in car after installation. The mid and Treble is very good, bass is hard hitting, but does not extend to low frequencies that well.

But that is case all speakers I tried under $200 from local Car Toys(includes Apline, JL Audio, Focal etc).

These are meant for receivers without external amps, so do not give too much power, they were distorting even with my after market deck, but I never use that much volume. All in all these speakers are very good at especially at the price offered here on Sonic Electronix. Keeping the intended use in mind, I highly recommend these speakers.
