[QUOTE="CaptNKILL, post: 4221325, member: 579103"] I'm going to be upgrading the stock speakers in my 2006 Hyundai Sonata GLS soon but I'm having trouble deciding on a good set that will sound alright running on my head unit. I'm using a Kenwood Excellon KDC-X491 and I also have an Infinity Reference 1252W running on an Infinity 311a at 300W RMS in a sealed box. Nothing too fancy really. I plan on upgrading my sub and amp by summer (probably to a Fi-Q and Hifonics 1200 watt running on a second battery). I may upgrade to a 4 channel amp to run my speakers later on, but I just don't have the money for it right now. I need 2 6 1/2 or 6 3/4 component speakers for my front doors (the sail panels have stock tweeters in them now so I have a place to put new ones) and 2 6 1/2 or 6 3/4 drivers (no tweeters) for my rear doors. My HU can put out 22W per channel and I need speakers that will work and sound at least "ok" at a moderate volume (I usually listen to my system at around 25 on the receiver) with that amount of power. I was looking at these for fronts because lots of people here seem to praise them, but I just don't think I'll have enough juice to make them work.
