Who makes the best speakers

[Haibane]

Dayna, you live in the off topic area, when you actually go to a real car audio place, then you can make fun of some of the best speakers that will beat those diamond audio speakers. Btw, nice to see you getting in to the audio section.

[dayna240sx]

huh? I wasnt making fun of anything... I seriously had no clue they make speakers for $30.
And I dont "live" in the off topic area. I go other places too.

[Haibane]

Just the only place, I see you...

You just came off a bit strong with the blown stock speakers sound better than that thing

[dayna240sx]

Read it again... I said stock ones "probabaly" sound better than $30 speakers.... UNLESS they are blown... Get it

Sorry if I offened you or your knowledge.

[Haibane]

No I don't care really. Have a fun day

I'm running Infinity componets and I gotta tell you they're up there f?cking with Boston, and I even think they got Alpine on smash.

MB Quart and Polk are two more good ones...

retardedly bright midrange and tweets (if you have to flinch whenever a chick takes the mic, something is wrong), very very poor low frequency response, not spectacular in imaging, clarity, or detail. They really have nothing going for them....Alpines are decent, but nowhere near the top (except for the F1, but those aren't even Alpine, those are Scanspeak), Boston is good but it all depends on what model you're looking at, MB Quart is again very bright but they do have good detail, and I'll never run Polk, but from what I hear some of their users are somewhat happy with them....

aznxthuggie's got the right idea, but you won't find any of those in your price range. Like I said before, "the best" and "best value" have totally different lists going for them, I doubt there's one brand that can jump the gap except for maybe CDT or Focal.

According to the ignorant maybe. For people who don't know better, the drastic peaks and dips in the response make it sound more powerful than it really is. Their car systems sound exactly like their home systems to me, and that's nothing to be proud of. They might be better than the base sound system that comes stock on the car, but for the $1000-1500 that it costs for the Bose upgrade you can do so much better it's not even funny.

Holy sh?t It sounds like Infinity's are notorious for super bright tweets, and all this time I just thought it was just their freq. response to my car. It's all good though 'cause I got them routed via a parametric EQ.

how pioneer speakers the "rev" line are they any good???? I hear they can take 400watts max power to each speaker

[Haibane]

First thing you said that was wrong is you even bothered bringing in a max rating. Secondly, how much power a speaker can handle shows nothing about how good it is. Their are speakers that will do 200watts or more rms, but they rate them at 150 because HOLY cow, 100 is loud enough to each speaker for me. Oh and Pioneer sucks for the "best speaker" area. Not even the best deal on speakers either.

Thanks for all the suggestions, ive decided to get infinity 4x6's, but so far i cant find any 6 1/2 brands yall suggested. They are so expensive, but the cdt $30 that were suggested are stock replacement i think, and i was wondering if there was some sort of difference between them and coaxials. If you have sites with low priced good speakers, please let me know.

[kenwood guy]

calm down tiger!! im new to car audio to a certin extent I dont know much about speakers.... so more power does not mean it will be a better speaker thats something new I learned what makes a good speaker a good speaker???

[Haibane]

I don't really know it well enough to get into all the details... Sr20 may know... this is a question for an audio oriented forum

[kenwood guy]

i think this is
