[QUOTE="audiobaun, post: 8763540, member: 634282"] For the Front stage/ Front speakers.. The Hertz sound good for what they are.. I have a set of these in 6.5 and a set of Coax. I also have a set of Polk MM 6.5s and a set of the 5.25s that Ive sent a link to.. and Of all Id recommend the Polk 5.25s off of HU power or as well as being amplified for your needs. They do well off HU power, but so much better with an amplifier as the majority of all aftermarket speakers that I could find within the Budget.

Kicker speakers are just not what they used to be since the 90s in my opinion.They just are not decent SQ material speakers that they used to be prized at in the earlier days.They can get loud but very little SQ effects.I do like theyre 1" and 3/4" KS Tweeters as they can get loud and do great with power to keep up with a heavy sub stage.Just My 0.02 cents .
