Okay so in order to complete my car for now (and support my addiction), i want to replace my factor front speakers. Im already running subs, and a mono amp. Im looking for front speakers to replace the stocks, that can be full of quality and stand loud volumes. I like listening to various levels of music. Normal levels, where im seeking nice rich quality and when i blast the system i wish for speakers that wont loose that quality and can compete with at high volume.

I dont want to get a another amp simply because i have no more room. So which speakers do you guys recommend. These caught my eyes and i wonder what opinions you hold on them. Im also open to other suggestions.

If necessary ill put an amp under my seat haha

JL audio TR600-CXi (The are really 6" will they fit in the tc? idk lol)

Infinity Reference 6020cs (These are components, would it be fine to run them off stock power?)

Im open to suggestions

 

There's better speakers out there around that ballpark price range. (and of course even better for more money)

Here's 2 great companies to check out.

CDT:

OO thanks! Which would you recommend for avic-d3 unit power for now, and a small amp (under the driver seat small lol) in the future?

 

Hmm... well, if you're still running on the stock headunit, I would suggest changing that first. It makes the world of difference.

 

Doh! I have an Avic D3.

 

Ahhh, that doesn't classify as stock then.

Yeah, deifnatly amp it. I'm running those exact Image Dynamics in the link above with a small 2 channel Memphis amp.

 

This should be able to fit under the passenger seat:

How would they sound without an amp at first?

 

They should be fine..... just makes it a hassle to wire up an amp to it later. Best to install it all at once and get it over with imo.

 

I have no problems doing 2 steps, i enjoy taking the car apart and stuff. My pockets arnt deep so thats why im trying to do 2 stages. stage 1 no amp stage 2 amp haha

 

And of course, you'll need speaker baffles for the speakers. Best place would be from the Doc himself. He'll cut them to the specs of the speakers you end up getting.

Yeah i was going to get them from him in the first place.

 

Yeah, then go for it! The D3 has enough power to make the speakers sound good w/out blowing em.... of course they'll sound better amped, but you'll be doing that later.

 

For now, the image dynamics would hook up to the wires the stock speakers are connected to now correct?

 

One more question about the image dynamics. They provide mostly highs and mids? I dont need lows since my subs already pound haha.

 

I'm trying to find the how-to.... or maybe doc can chime in

Is that the one ?

 

no, that's just for coaxials... not components. The speakers in the door are straight forward.... it's the tweeters that are different. If I can remember correctly, there are 4 wires going to the stock tweeter.... you only 2 of em.

 

Ah i understand. The image dynamics they are for highs and mid correct? Dont really need lows haha

 

Ohh yes, plenty of smooth highs and great mids.... very detailed and clear. I actually like their sound better than the set of CDT's I had before.
