[QUOTE="Michjay, post: 8426328, member: 667304"] Just want to start by saying hello new here. Sorry this maybe long and stupid for everyone but like the heading says I know nothing. I have a 99 Saturn I bought and drive back and fourth to work long commutes so my stereo is a must when I bought this it had stock radio two 6.5 boss chaos ch6530 in the doors the rear had one 6.5 boss chaos and one stock speaker. Not sure if these speakers are a decent brand. But it didn't sound all that great front speakers you could barely here and rear so so but turned up got ****** sounding.
