See where crutchfield and circuit city are running a special (Buy one, get second set at 50% off) -- Thought I would make this the next step in the audio upgrade after buying the Pioneer DEHP4800 2 weeks ago. Anyone running this on your xB?

How do they sound for ya?

 

Circuit City had that deal 3 weeks ago with Kicker products
I bought 2 sets of Kicker KS6.2 Components and they sound great with my Eclipse CD3000 Head Unit and Infinity Basslink.
Circuit City's Install was real shady and I will never get anything installed there again.
They used Wire Nuts to splice speaker wires. I was thinking they would solder and make everything clean with the install.

not going to let them install it.....just thought I would use their $199 price ($300 total) for both sets....

 

I would drop the Polks and get a set of Elemental Designs components.

 

How much did those set you back?
OH, and props on the WM3 avatar.....those poor, poor kids....

 

Wire nuts at a Circuit City??? Did you ask them why they were using wire nuts?
Circuit City is suppossed to solder and tape all connections for wiring. I know because i work at one and have run the install shop before. There is a problem if they are using wire nuts, you should take it back and make some one aware of this issue (even if you dont allow them to work on the car, atleast let Mgmt know). That is a big no no, not using solder and tape, plus wire nuts, s*ck. You sure they weren't crimp caps?
Sorry to get off topic, but that disturbes me, i bust my butt doing the best work posssible I can and give CC a good name. Just to have some smu**k, mess it up with wire nuts.

Polk is a very good brand, one of the top three sold at CC. The speakers will give you a nice midbass, sound and some highs. Other's will give you a better highs, and little or no mid bass. But a good choice if you desire, a little less highs and some good mids.

 

Also consider the Diamond Audio D661a I'm using them and they have some of the best bass i've heard in a 6.5 and the highs are outstanding.

 

I paid $125 shipped for the eD 6000s, and they sound amazing! I was looking into the Polks before I got these, and I'm so glad I went with the eD's!!

 

Hm....I'll have to look into that

 

Alright -- ED it will be....I think maybe 6000s comps in the front and perhaps a sub/amp or two in the back. Who needs mids in the back compartment anyhow? Anyone used this setup with the Pioneer P4800?

 

Buy a sub/amp combo and get 15% off @eD. Free ship, lifetime CS, 3 year transferable warranty. Great equipment at great prices!

 

I've got Polk DBs and love them. I hear the eD stuff is great too.

Either way, make sure you lay some sound deadening mat in the door. It makes SUCH a big difference in the bass response.
