Basic Speaker question

[justice 10+ year member]

So I have found 2 speakers on ebay that I think are the best deal for my money. Please take a look at these stats and tell me which is better. both are 3-way speakers

The first is

sensitivity 90 dB

frequency response 30-30,000 Hz

recommended power range 2-150 watts RMS

peak power handling 500 Watts Per Pair 250 Watts Per Speaker

The other is

Max Music Power 350W

Sensitivity 92dB/W(1m)

Frequency Response 40-22,000Hz

White Injection Cone

Impedance 4 ohms

Could you let me know which you think is better and why. If you need more info here are the links to the auctions

Those are pretty generic companies...I doubt they will perform good at all...you should save up a little and get some decent speakers...

better? I'de ask which is worse than the other. I mean to tell you the truth I dont know if those will be better than stock speakers... What are you looking to get from them?

Both are pieces of ****. Good speakers don't cost $15.

Try these instead:

Both links you posted seem to be pioneer knock offs, and it looks to me like the speakers in the 1st link are a much closer copy. So between the 2 I'd go with the first ones. Plus, anytime the only rating for a 6-1/2 is MAX AND it's 350 watts. You can pretty much write it off as junk. I would think the speakers in the 1st link would be a pretty good upgrade over anything stock that's more than a couple years old.
