What would be a good 6x8 speaker?

[Gbob2003 10+ year member]

I'm looking for some really good 6x8" speakers. I'm looking to stay under 200$ for 4 of them. Looking for loud SQL speakers. Ive heard good things about alpine swr-6x8's. Any opinions? Thanks

I'll be the first to say it but look into 6.5's and 6x8 to 6.5 adapters. I havn't noticed a huge diff between the 2 but people insist 6.5's sound better.

You won't get SQL with $200. Not a dig, just lower your expectations. Will they be powered by an amp?

Type-R are good for the money, but as mentioned components up front are usually required for good SQ. Tweeter aiming is very important as is the entire speaker installation.
