Good Buy

The following review is for a previous version (R1682).

I put them in the rear door of my F-150 super crew with no amp on them, just power by aftermarket deck 40x4 sound as good as the front doors with Pioneers 6x8 with an amp on them makes me want to put Rockford Fosgate in the front!!!

Rockford Fosgate R1682

The following review is for a previous version (R1682).

I bought these speakers (4) to replace the factory speakers in my 05 Ford F150 Crew, I appreciate good music and these accompanied my system with a sub and amp set up quite well!! I would recommend these to anyone who would like a great sounding replacement speaker!

Terrific...Absolutely wonderful!

The following review is for a previous version (R1682).

I installed these in my Ford Explorer. I run with with an MTX 4-channel amp. They are loud and sound amazing! I turned off the subwoofer, turned up the bass, and these boom surprisingly loud! Very much acceptable in case you don't have room for a sub.

Great for the money!

The following review is for a previous version (R1682).

I honestly think a better performing speaker cannot be found at this price point. I am using these in the front doors of my 1998 Explorer and they deliver quality mids and highs. These speakers are VERY loud and I am only powering them with a 20W RMS head unit. This is my 4th system and I have always used MB Quart in my doors. These speakers are much louder than the Quarts while running on the same amount of power, though the sound is slightly better with the Quarts. Keep in mind these are not speakers that produce a tremendous amount of low bass but they are a terrific compliment to a sub.

Great Speakers

The following review is for a previous version (R1682).

I was not impressed with these at first until i adjusted my input levels on my kenwood amplifier and now they great. They put out a very clean midrange sound comparable to what you would expect from a 120$ pair.

nice sound

The following review is for a previous version (R1682).

The speakers came fast and sounded great! I recommend whatever speakers you buy, get the wire kit for your specific vehicle. Otherwise your splicing them out like I did.
