new speakers????
 
well ive been thinkin about getting at leat 1 set, because i only have 1 working one as it is, (but my 2 AR tweeters still work). i figured if i allready have tweeters in the front maybe i should get some mid-range/min-bass speakers to match up to them? anyone done this? i found these http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_...t+RVF+164.html and they're pretty cheap. what you think?

Go to any audio forum and for mid bass and pure clarity the best bang for your buck under 100$ is the phoenix gold pg rsd 6.5cs component system. Have had the set in my car and with some sound deadening and sealed up doors i have had many people ask me what size sub i had in my car. http://cgi.ebay.com/NIB-PHOENIX-GOLD-6-5-240w-COMPONENT-SPEAKERS-RSD65CS_W0QQitemZ300262667609QQcmdZViewItem?hash=i tem300262667609&_trkparms=72%3A1205|39%3A1|66%3A2| 65%3A12|240%3A1308&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 honestly the best money i have ever spent on a car.

inho mb quarts premium line before they were bought out by Maxxsonics were the best money could buy. They were as perfect sounding as compitition speakers costing way more. When they were bought out they stoped making them in germany and are now the same as all the other junk.

+1

There is a very good reason why I won't let go of the set of Quarts I have or the semi vintage Xtant amp, or my old ass Kenwood KDC-X915.

Vintage, circa 95-2000 is the best IMO. There are some amplifiers that are even older that will still embarrass the "1000 watt" amps sold today.

The latest truly impressive amp I have seen come about within recent years is the JBL Crown series. Those fucker are bad ass.

for anyone in the pittsburgh area, there was guys who sold speakers out of the back of a white econoline, simply known as 'the speaker guys'

i ran into them one time at advance vato, they asked me to buy some speakers, i told them i wanted free speakers, then they told me something along the lines of 'take a picture, we're ------ famous!' and left

Dirt cheap prices and literally run by Jews, they were closed for the recent holiday two weeks ago. I got some $130 speakers for $70 among other deals. I ordered on sat and everything is supposed to arrive this Thur so I'll find out if its the real deal or knock-offs. They also carry phoenix gold.

thats actually a lie. It just depends on the shop and their rep.... i would install those for $150 with a lifetime warranty... good ---- though. After i closed down the shop, i wasnt a memphis dealer anymore but still in good terms with the sales rep. Thats why i had to become an MTX Elite dealer
