Im thinking about upgrading my component speakers, since our factory ones leave a lot to be desired. I have a modest budget of about 50bucks that I would like to stay within for the front two speakers.
Im looking for something with good clarity and good bass response, to compliment the two 10in subs I have in the trunk. Any recommendations? -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

I had a '96 Celica that I bought off of an older lady that barely ever listened to the radio, and the factory speakers were awesome in that car. Then I bought this GT I have now, and one of the door speakers was blown so I bought Memphis Audio Power Reference speakers. The mids and highs are great, and I never noticed a reduction in bass. Then I replaced my back speakers with some 300 watt Blitz Audio (isn't that a Wal-Mart brand?) speakers that I got for free. Everything sounded okay, but I'll leave it at that. It always lacked bass. Embarrassed to have Blitz components in my car, I put the factory rear speakers back in a couple of weeks ago, and they have MUCH better bass than either the Blitz or the Memphis Audios. Almost every Toyota I've rode in has a decent system from the factory. I think it's just the age of the speakers in our cars. I'm saving up to invest in a JL Audio sound system though
