Best 6 1/2's for under $200

[sfletch2000]

I'm look at getting some new speakers for my trunk which i take are 6 1/2's and seeing how i know nothing about speakers i was wondering what's a good pair for under two hundred? Whats the difference between two and three way speakers?

I've been checking out these infinity's

Youd most likely be happy with those. Infinity speakers tend put out great high's and their mid range is pretty good too(for what they are). Although i think our trunk speakers are 4.5" with 1/2 tweeter next to that.. Im gonna go ahead and just put 2 6x9s back there. Oversized 6.5s are in the door and sail panel if i recall correctly.

i just got some JL audio 6.5s, two of them for 170, cant complain about them they seem very decent

Ive always gone with boston acoustics for my car audio. Little pricier but worth it.

[Ryans99LS1]

00T/A, how did you get yours to fit? Are they the oversized 6.5's? I want JL components in mine.

[sfletch2000]

So what's the deal are the stock trunk speakers 4.5" or 6.5"

depends what ur lookin for. infinity and polk for example are good but require a lot of power. pioneer and jbl on the other hand dont need as much but arent as clear. 3 ways have 2 tweeters(more clarity and highs). 2 ways have more bass. best thing to do is get a crutchfield mag so you can see all the specs. look at the sensitivity rating it will tell you how loud a speaker is. anything in the 90's is pretty loud.

[sfletch2000]

yeah i've been checkin out their website i'm also looking at some boston acoustics

but can someone please give me an answer to what size the trunk speakers are?

[richard head]

4" with a tweeter next to it.

neither. it's a 4" mid and a 2" tweeter. 6x9's don't fit. 4x6's will. You'd have to cut out the stockers and fit in the new 4x6's from behind. Honestly-don't spend a lot of money for the rear hatch, they do get heard, but barely. I'd spend the money on some nice front speakers-Infinity Kappa 67.2i's and depending on how hard you want your bass to be-either a 10" in the rear or some eu700's in the b-pilars.

Well those are the only speakers that even work in my car, i bought the car like 8 months ago and for some reason nothing else works. There is a alpine amp mounted in the trunk but i don't even think its hooked up and i really don't want to mess with trying to figure out what's going on with the wiring. Are the 4X6's pretty easy to install?

[sfletch2000]

One more question did you mean Infinity Kappa 62.7i's cause nothing is coming up when i look around for Kappa 67.2i's

[sfletch2000]

As far as the hatch speakers go i'm gonna choose between these two, what pair do you think i'll be more happy with?

im a big fan of infinity. just be aware they are 2 ohm. if ur gonna run an amp make sure its 2 ohm stable.
