Christmas came...

Well, bummer.

I'll be rolling with sony xplodes in my car now. Yay.

Hopefully my amp won't blow them...

And just to avoid the comments - it's because my dad picked those out, I talked with my mom on it, and he thought they were good speakers. And I don't want him to feel bad. Made a deal with my mom here - I keep them, wire them up, and she'll get me texting on my phone finally. As that'll allow me to finally text a certain girl, and I'll avoid making my dad feel bad, I'll roll with the sony xplodes. Until college. 7-8 months.

Actually, taking a look at the speakers close up...

I have a feeling the factory amp will blow them :/

Hell, the magnets are SMALLER than the factory speakers. Wires are smaller, too - they're like 22 or 24 gauge wires. And yet these are rated for more power than the factory speakers.

Well, it'll give me a good excuse once they're blown.

Just hook them up and let your dad listen to them. Hopefully he will change his mind.

ahaha that sucks
Just like I told my mom before, get me a blueray player, awesome, just not an insignia nor a sony. What did she get? The sony because she liked the blue face:crap:

Sony would have been my first choice for bluray, they did invent the technonlogy...

^ they also invented minidisc. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

But, yes, Sony makes just as good BD products as anyone, and they have varying products lines like their 'competitors' (who they still make money off of).

to OP, there is nothing worng with getting something at BB or CC, just depends on what you get and watch the price, they have really good deals on sale items, get some store credit

I know minidisc was a huge fail, but bluray killed HD (probably because of the PS3, smart on their part) but they should have the latest software and such.

ya i got a pair of infinity speakers from best buy like 2 years ago still useing them

 

[Shocks 10+ year member]

Yay.

I'm SO glad I can return them. For the price, I just about get myself one of the PG RSD comp sets, and do some work to make those fit. Considering my amp puts out 60 RMS, too, I think that'll fit much better. Hell, I could probably blow these sony's off my HU -.-

Those are some of the best speakers to ever grace the car audio world!!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/bowdown.gif.b85b23b82970bd22fb6b549c3392f016.gif:bowdown:
