    My cars "system"...What next?

    If I unplug the stock tweeters there is definitely something missing. I just wonder if the stock tweeters are still bringing down the quality of the tweeters on the Alpines. What about the amp...What will I gain from that? I don't understand how more power can increase the quality unless I have...

    Capable 6"x9" speakers?

    My last car had brand new 6.5's in the back...Now I have the same brand 6x9's in the back and the increase in bass they are capable of is pretty spectacular. I do not have an amp though, maybe 6.5's can do a lot more than I think? 6.5's just seem kinda "weak" compared to a big heavy 6x9. I have...

    My cars "system"...What next?

    I know nothing about tweeters, but I am guessing they are cheap...Any recommendations? I got took out brand new Pioneer 4-ways because they were painful, if that's any clue to what would be best for me.

    My cars "system"...What next?

    Hey guys! I've gotten a bunch of great information and learned tons of stuff since I found this great website. This is where I am at right now with my car- I've got a 1995 Accord EX 2-door. I've got a Pioneer DH-2600 head unit with the equalizer and all the great factory settings (Vocal...

    Sound Dampening and Dents/Dings

    Probably so... Get the dents fixed first... Might be cheaper if you have some stuff taken apart already.

    Best deal?

    What is the original purpose of Peel 'n Seal? I wasn't able to find it at Lowes or Home Depot...What's it used for? Where do I look? Is it worth the extra cost to get Dynamat over, say, Damplifier? Is that much better?

    Best deal?

    Why is heat resistance an issue? The doors/trunk have done fine without some sort of barier in the past...I don't get it? Who here is using this stuff? I was about to buy Dynamat on Ebay. After searching all the ads and adding shipping and original cost to get past the BS, the cheapst thing I...

    Which speaker is better for highs

    Both those Infinity's and Pioneer's are too harsh for me. The Pioneer's produce very clear highs, maybe just what you're looking for. I've had a bunch of sets of Pioneers... I think my SPS-170's are great! Much better than the Inifity's and the Pioneers... Is it possible to get highs without...

    whats better?

    Avoid the Pioneer 4-ways and make sure that you go and listen to the 3-ways before considering them. I have heard that the 4-ways sound totally different with an amp, but I have not heard that.

    Need 6 1/2 speakers, suggestions?

    I've got some Alpine SPS-170's that I just bought for like $70 shipped on Ebay. They are great speakers. They are two-ways and definitely lack some of the treble that my Pioneers are capable of, but I am thoroughly satisfied. Infinity's 60i2's are another speaker in that price range, but I like...

    Good sounding speakers running off the deck only?

    How about Infinity and Polk? I just bought Alpines for my Accord...

    good coaxial?

    In my own search for the same thing you're looking for, I ended up ordering some Alpine SPS-170A's. You may be willing to spend more, the Alpines sell for about $100 locally. I listened to them for a fairly long time with my own CD's at a local audio store and fell in love. I really like the...

    Sold Pioneer 4-ways

    Hey guys, I've got some 6.5 inch Pioneer 4-ways for sale. I bought them new a few weeks ago, and put them to gentle use in my 95 Accord. They are in as perfect condition as they can be, and sound brand new. I can get pictures if needed. How about $55 shipped. Email me at...

    What 6.5's to get? Need advice!

    So I went all over our city today with a buddy of mine. We went to some local independent shops and some big ones like Circuit City and Best Buy. Pioneer was ruled out, Kenwood was quickly eliminated, as was Sony. Eclipse and JL were out because of price. Polk was eliminated because evidently...

    What 6.5's to get? Need advice!

    First off, keep in mind my price range...Near $70. I will not have an amp. I just went to a local audio place and all they carry is Polk and Pioneer and there was nothing for me to listen to. Those Inifinity's I found have silk tweeters, but I guess I'll still eliminate them. Please share...
