Speakers

Hi im customizing my rear dash and im putting in a few new speakers. I have a few xplodes now but i dont think they make them anymore and i want all the new ones to match. Im probably gonna buy some from ebay but im not really looking to spend alot so does any one know what kind of speakers are cheap but good?

Cheap but Good don't usually come together. I Don't really like Sony a whole lot, Pioneer makes some good stuff, But You could go with some Infinity Reference series and not pay too much. Depends on what size your speakers are and what you're pushing them with.

Check that out, You should get those speakers. Of course it matters what you're pushing the speakers with though...

Dude, what are you pushing your W7 with? I've heard some awesome things about that particular Sub. I've got a pair of 10w3's, they rock.

I got it hooked up to a JL 500/1 amp and damn is it loud. Before this i had two 12s with two 500 amps and this still blows them away.

when i saw the jl W7 for the first time i almost $hit. That is one of the most technologicaly advanced subs of our time. You should think of mixing up your brands in your whole car audio system. Some companies specialize in other things that others arent good at.

I was in the same boat, I came up with this, Pioneer/ head unite $260, 6x9's $65, 5x7's $45, 10'sub and box $110, amps (I went cheep on this one, and got away with it) $50 and $100. All came from Wal*Mart, I know what you are thinking...... but it sounds awsome! and looks good with the blue inside my car.

Re: Speakers

Check these out... http://www.crutchfield.com/S-Qin88hO...1&avf=Y&search=

I put them in mine and you can move the tweeter to bounce off the back window to help out the sound quality.
