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

QUOTE (pittfirefighter @ Jul 4, 2009 - 6:48 PM)  our stock speakers are actually really really good... but age and wear tends to leave them sounding like garbage... they run about $200 a speaker... alpine makes some great aftermarket speakers... type s's are ok but for component step up to the type-r, just a few more bucks and well worth it... you can usually get last years model pretty cheap too I dont know, i find our factory speakers to be extremely lacking. The highs are nowhere to be found, there is no bottom end, everything in the middle lacks clarity. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

Way back when I used to amp the sh*t out of them and they take it well for years - guess they are just starting to show they're age a lot.
