good 4 inch coaxials?

[timaishu 10+ year member]

My friend drives a 1989 Toyota Camry and it has 4 inch speakers in the dash.

He wants to upgrade to a set of 4 inch coaxials to replace the stockers. For now they will be powered of the HU and he may later get an amp.

Would either of these be good? They seem fine on the mounting depth.

Would you guys recommend either of these?

I'd like to know this as well, my dash holds 4" and need to know what will work best off the head unit. Looking for max output.

Digital Designs has some awesome 4" coaxials

The thing is is that it needs to be relatively cheap. Like around the price of the links I posted.

No more than 1 3/4 mounting depth. I dont feel like making anything custom to make bigger speakers fit. Just something I can drop in.

i have some kicker ks400s that i got off ebay for 45 bucks shipped and they are actually pretty nice. for cheap 4 in coaxs lol

Is there any diffence between the kicker ks400 and the ks40?

The image dynamics ones are only $100. For the jump, you'll get a much better speaker.

Otherwise... Going by brand name, I've found better results from the pioneer speakers over other mainstream brands.

The Image Dynamics are a great choice or these old school premuim MB's are nice too.
