[QUOTE="LOLminator, post: 3042244, member: 577335"] Hey all, I currently have a 2000 Acura Integra hatchback. The stock headunit is long gone and has been replaced with a Alpine-9820XM unit. I am looking to drop in some speakers to replace the crappy stock ones. I have no amp and don't plan on buying one because I just don't have the knowledge needed to run the wires (unless you guys can convince me otherwise). No subwoofer because I actually need my trunk space to move things around. I have been looking into some component system in the front because the Integra has a separate tweeter already positioned, and just a 2-way in the rear. Instillation will be done myself and since this is the first time I would ever be doing this I'm assuming I'll need to buy some dynamat or some kind of speaker baffles to keep the sound crisp? I am looking for clarity and some kind of speaker that can take abuse. I listen to rock, soft-rock, metal, and on rare occasions rap. I have been looking at the Polk Audio line, specifically the db650 for the rear and maybe the db6500 for the door? I have also found a cheap pair of JL Audio VR650-CXi online. The problem I have with the JLs is that I don't know how good they would sound without an amp. I've read that most people here like Eclipse or CDT audio, any good? I am probably going about this all the wrong way, so I come to you guys for help. Price range for the 4 speakers is 200-300 dollars. No ebay items, just speakers bought on an online store. Thanks, Summary: *Acura Integra hatchback, component system? *No amp/subwoofer needed *Starting HU Alpine-9820XM *Listen to rock, soft-rock, metal, occasional rap *Clarity and a speaker that won't die or blow out in a few years, able to take some volume abuse. *Polk Audio? JL underpowered without amp? Eclipse? CDT? *200-300$ price range (no ebay) [/QUOTE]
