Great sound!

Great sound, Clear and Crisp. Quality and loud sound, even without an amp. I think they even sound better than my old Alpine Type S speakers. Would defiantly buy again, especially with Sonic Electroix's prices.

Boston Acoustics S85 for my Mazda 6

I would definitely recommend this product. I have heard a lot about getting an amp to make it even better so I can't wait to do that but for now they sound great. They're very clear sounding and they were easy to install. Definitely two thumbs up!

Great value

Great sound. A huge improvement over stock speakers. Good power handling without distortion. I wouldn't use them for over 25 watts or so.

Boston Acoustics S85

I just bought these for my boyfriend and got them in yesterday and we installed them in his '08 Mazda 6 tonight. They sound great! Way more clear than the factory ones he had and it doesn't get distorted until almost max volume. There's more bass as well. I'm so happy with this product and I can't wait until I can get him an amp to make it that much better. Overall, thumbs up!

Great speaker for my Ranger/Mazda B

I replaced all 4 of the factory 6 X 8's with these speakers along with other upgrades. I am very happy with these speakers and would recommend them. They are "bright" which I like but the addition of a relatively inexpensive ($150) Boss 1200, low profile 10 inch powered subwoofer really rounded out the sound. Mind you this is not a "rattle the license plate" system but the combination of the S85's for the mid and highs and the sub handling the low frequencies, it sounds pretty darn good for a inexpensive system.
