[QUOTE="West_Coaster, post: 4645071, member: 594750"] I'm putting together a system in an Accord. I have a Pioneer DEH-P980BT deck, Rockford T400-4 amp and currently a set of Polk 6X9's in the rear deck and Boston RM6 6.5 coax in the front doors. The trunk has an MTX trunk formed box with a 10". I will run the front 2 channels of the amp to the front doors (~60-80W), use deck power for rear fill to the 6x9's, and bridge the rear 2 channels to power the sub in the trunk. I haven't installed everything yet, but am looking to replace the RM6's in the front doors with components. I'm looking at the following: Boston PRO60 Alpine SPR-17S, 17REF, & 17PRO JL C5-650 My mounting depth cannot exceed 2.65". I am able to listen to the Alpines locally, but not the Bostons or JL's. The rest of what they have in the store is junk to me. I listen to moistly classic and hard rock. I've traditionally had Boston's, and have always liked them but found the tweeters a bit harsh. I was thinking of rolling the dice and buying the Bostons without hearing them, but the Alpines all sound pretty good also. My budget is $300 or less. Opinions? [/QUOTE]
