Best bang for your buck?

[RyansX]

Hey all! I recently blew my passenger side front speaker in my 1998 Ex. and i want to get some replacement speakers. What would be the best bang for my buck? My dad bought some Pioneer 6x5 door speakers for his 2002 Silverado 1500 and i dont really like the way they sound very much. What do you all recommend for good speakers that sound good? Thanks!

is that for 4 speakers or 2?

I love my HiFonics speakers, I got 4 and an amp for them for $180 shipped from sonics as a package deal thing. Like ST said, Polk makes great stuff too. Stay away from Sony Xplod...

Sorry 100 for 2 but I got them on sale for 150

I got 4 Kicker 5x7's for about $100 off amazon. They sound good and are well made.

Depends on what you're powering them with. if you're just using the internal amp of the head unit, the basic 2-way Pioneer 6x8's are all you need. If you step up to an external amp, something like a 50W x 4 to power them, you could either get the 3-way 6x8's that handle more power, or get a component system and use adapter plates.

With two 12's, it's easy for even 6x8's powered by the head unit to get overwhelmed by the bass. The 50W x 4 amp and higher power speakers would go a long way towards being able to hear the highs and midrange better. a 100W x 4 amp and components would do even more.
