Need some help picking Coaxials...

[2002XLT 5,000+ posts]

Ok, dont even start about components, i KNOW they are better, and i WILL be getting them eventually, but i just found out that i blew 1 or 2 of my stocks, so i need a fairly cheap fix, and ill be replacing all 4 speakers.

According to crutchfield my stock speakers are 6 X 8.

I want them to be good speakers because i will end up leaving the back set in for rear fill when i do decide to upgrade the front. I will also need them to be able to take ~ 200 watts because of the 4-channel im getting.

Anyway, please give me some suggestions.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

Get a pair of the new Pioneer Premier D-Series speakers. They're the best for the money out there without spending gobs of money:

You can find them for around $80-90 on the usual speaker sites and eBay.

those pioneers do look nice, im curious how they would do on double their RMS though...

also will a good 2-way be ok or should i be looking at 3 or 4 ways?

And is 6 X 8 my only option?

They should do fine as long as the power is clean.

2 ways would probably be the way to go, but it'll come down to personal preference.

You might be able to go with 6.5's by making an mdf adapter, granted you have the clearance in your door.

arc's coaxes sound decent...i am running a 4" off 75wrms and then do pretty well

dont think they have a 6x8 though, but you could make an adapter and use the 6.5's

The subs seem to be a big hit, but I know nothing about their coaxs.

ive seen these mentioned as well. How do they compare against focal/hertz. Im willing to pay the extra cash if its worth it in the long run, but then again i know ill be taking out the fronts eventually and adding components so maybe i should stick with something a little more basic.

Anyway, link? lol

I don't think you'll notice a large enough difference in coaxials between REV and focal/hertz to make those two worth it. I would try ebay *GASP* yea I said it.. for the revs.
