I'm looking to see what kind of speakers you people are using in your dashes? I'm looking to replace the blown ones that I have and would like to hear suggestions. I'm not looking for sound contest types, just some that will sound good. Thanks in advance....

 

infinity plates sound pretty nice, especially for the money.. however, you might consider getting kick panels for better sound imaging..

 

i'm using CDT Audio's Classic Component series. 5.25" fronts with 6x9 rears....along w/ REZN8R's kickass kick panels
Check the link in my sig for pictures.

 

Infinity C.M.M.D. Kappas....i use them

 

infinity all the way

 

Kappas and MBQs

 

Thanks for the advice, sounds as if infinity is the way to go. Appreciate it people!!!

 

Infinitys baby.

 

Hmmm, now what was the brand of my dash speakers? Oh, yeah...Infinity 4652cf.

 

Kick panels are definitely the way to go but I'm not an infinity fan. I compared them by way of listening to them and on paper. I like my Kenwood Excelon's.

 

I don't know what I have in my Camaro, but I have Blaupunkt in my Escort. Very nice speakers, four for just a little over $100.

 

i used to have infinity kappa plates in the dash, now use crystal comps. also just got a set of jl comps to play with, so who knows. for the money, nothing beats crystal

 

I run mb quart components

 

Cerwin Vegas.. MAN They sound good but at $150 for 2 4x6's they are kinda expensive for the other stuff u can get for cheaper

 

Infinity Kappa 462.3cfp's 4x6 plates in Front
Pioneer TS-A6957 6x9s in Back

I strongly Reccomend the Infinity Kappa's and Blaupunkt Overdrive series....The Pioneers are only so-so

 

I have rockford fosgate plates in the front and they sound REALLY good! Got them off ebay for 50 bucks.

 

I really appreciate the responses I've gotten. Never realized this was such a strong topic for most thanks again people...

I'm gonna be getting the speakers this week and it's gonna be a pair of infinity speakers as they are mentioned the most.

Again, thanks for the assist people...

i'm running Memphis 15-ST46 4x6 in the front they sound the best i have heard for plates. they also come with their own crossover. very nice thing to have

 

The Kenwood Excelons that I have have great power and excellent clarity. Unfortunately there is much bass to speak of. Guess I'm gonna need to get a box

 

audiobahn.........

 

i guess i'm the first to vouch for Boston Acoustics. I love my Boston Rally's in some home-made kicks.

 

I know you all are going to **** on me for sayin' this but my pioneers in my dash sound pretty good. My system was built on a budget though. I think eventually I'd like to step up to Kove plates.

 

You dont want to know.

 

Digital Designs

 

i dont know about the boston acoustic systems for cars(simply never heard them in use) but my system on my computer kicks ***

 

I was running an Sony XPLOD 52x4 Deck (thanks to my neighborhood car thief). I still have the Sony XPLOD 6x9's in the rear and POLK 3½'s in the Front.

My plan is to make everything in my car Sony (Amps, Speakers, Subs, etc). I want 2 Sony XPLOD 12's and put some Tweets in the front.

 

I use Kenwoods in front and Kenwood 6x9s in the back and they sound pretty good.

 

Finally, another Kenwood fan. Do you have the excelon's?

 

Hey Viprklr....

Where in IL are you? You ever hit up Union Grove or Route 66?

Drop me a line and we'll talk...

 

A little wide-spot in the road called capron. It's about 25 minutes NE of Rockford on Rt. 173.
Haven't been to UG or rt66. I was just at byron last week.
what side of chitown you on?

 

Northwest side are my stomping grounds.

Never been to Byron yet. Hows the track out there? Nice?

Union Grove is alright, pricey... $50 to run... and the pot holes in the staging area suck to no end.

Route 66 is SWEET! Now that is a top quality track, and only $20 to run.

Any cruise nights out by you? I'm looking to broaden my horizons :-)

 

50 to run!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess I won't be going there.
Byron cost 25 to run. I liked the track. No potholes and the traction (I was running summer street tires) was phenomenal. No unintentional spinning.
I don't know of any cruise nights around. Once in a while something happens but otherwise I usually just hook up with people I know and wreak havoc in Rockford.

Think I'm gonna have to try Route 66

 

66 is killer.... a real professional track. Stadium seating no less. Definitely top notch, you got to check it out.

I take it your not a member of any clubs. You know a lot of third gen owners out by you?

 

You have mail

 

2 sony explod 6X9s 2 10"cerwinvega hed

did the infinity kappa fit without any mods

 

Im using pioneer 4x6, Whatever the cheapest ones off the shelf are.

They sound excellent.

The accoustics are so bad in the cars, you should just replace it with the cheapest alternative (that wont blow).

 

pioneer 4x6 in dash kenwood 6x9 in sail panel

 

the 40 dollar sony Xplodes from walmart sound GREAT in my car especialy for the price and they fit perfect

 

which ones and did you have to do any mods to the dash

 

4x6 clarion $40 up front, 6x9 paper cone jensen's $18 in the sails.

 

I used to use CSL, and Peavey back in the day. Accordian surround and all.

My last system had some half decent MTX and JBL's.

 

I put in Boston Acoustics Pro 4" seperates with tweeters in plates I made myself, and put Boston 4x6 in the rear sail panels in a set of the old UQ7 boxes I had laying around. 2 10" Pioneer subs (for now) with a Phoenix Gold M44 (4x40) driving the mains wired at 2ohm and a Phoenix Gold MS275 (2x75)on the subs wired at 1ohm. Total documented power of 310 but realistic power is around 800 watts.

 

I am a big Boston fan. Right now I have what came with the car....Pioneers. Very unimpressed with them for what I am used to. For the price of Boston you can't go wrong. Though I am not to big of a fan with there subs. They are alright but there are better.

 

Can't go wrong with the PRO series of subs, when 2 10" subs hit as hard as 4 15's.....something has been done right with them. Probably just haven't heard their subs with the right amount of power going to them, a buddy of mine has 2 10's in a trailblazer in a 1cuft box with 1 JL 500/1 going to each (one amp on one sub).

 

I got 2 way Alpine 4x6's in the dash and 3 way Alpine 6x9's in back. They're pretty bad a$$

 

kenwoods 4x6s in my old 86 they sounded great in the dash and the back speakers were lighning 6x9s

 

kenwood 4 corners, couldnt be happier, trunk is also full of kenwood so yeah theres my vote lol

 

Head Unit: Kenwood Excelon x491
