Found these door speakers any good?

Post by Craney »

They have good power outputs but they are cheap and unbranded what do you guys think?

Hhhmm look a little cheap & nasty to me. I wouldn't bother. They don't even give you an RMS value

Something like this will do the job. Cost inc postage will be just over 40 quid, but will be worth paying for a quality component item, not just a nameless bog standard item! 8)

Those speakers would be fine as a direct swap, the set i linked you to would be more of an upgrade. Only a tenner difference!

What sort of cash do you want to spend on the amp?

Cheapest on CAD.

Or try for a bargain on ebay!

Around 50-60 on a amp maybe i know that's budget but it's really just for 6x9's as rumour has it they sound poor from head unit lol.
I was looking at this :

Looks fine for the money, will drive a set of 6x9's no probs.

I've got a Pioneer DEH-P6000, standard front speakers ( :oops: ), & JBL 6.5" component rears running off a Rockford Fosgate Punch 100 amp. And the clarity & sound is really good. Spend on quality items & it'll pay dividends in the long run! I've had the Punch 100 amp for years & moves from car to car with me, same went for my previous Kenwood unit, only upgraded that due to wanting an MP3/USB input! 8)

Yes and Yes, you'll have to buy different conecntors though (couple of quid from any motor shop e.g Motorworld/Halfords)
