I'm ordering audiobahn 5 1/4" speakers for my front doors. The model is ACX552 and you can see them at this site http://www.etronics.com/product.asp?stk_code=audacx552 They will cost me 80 U.S. Plus 15 dollars for shipping which comes to 95.00 total.

I'm want to know if there is a better set of speakers out there that will be just as loud and have better sq for the same price or at lest no more then 10 dollars more. I want the speakers to be one piece not a separate tweeter. Thank you all for all your suggestions.

well because like I said I want it to be just as loud as the audiobahns....The audiobahn have a power handling or 90 watts RMS! not max....The Kappa's have only I think 35 or 45 rms...They won't be as loud will they?

thats right i think i was looking at a different set. they were the kappas but they were components and they were kinda pricey too. so yeah sorry for the lack of help form my posts. as for loud, yeah the bahns will deffinately be loud.

 
Actually i think the references would be louder jsut palying off the deck unless you have an amp?? Because the bahns takle 80 rms it takes more wattage to get them louder. i have reference 552i running of my pioneer deck adn the sound great!

 
have you heard audiobahn hi's? i REALLY doubt they could take 90 watts rms without a steeeeeeeeeeeeeep x over i know their components dont like 100 rms an eclipse that has w7's in it has 100 watts going to the 6.5 inch aluminum components ... mud ring a bell?

 
well they come with a 2 way out board cross over 12db...so what should I do to the x over to get the most out of them since I ordered them last night and they will be here in a few days. thanks

In that case I think I'll hook them up to my sub amp to test em out with the gain down. That will give them the 90watts RMS easy..but I won't have them in the car for that test which will kind ****.. Thanks guys
