best low buck option for replacing stock 2000 sport speakers

[kgbmatey]

I am looking to replace stock speakers in daughters first car. I am not looking for a professional system, just good quality replacement speakers with no mods.
Thanks

look on Crutchfield.com,
they have a it fits my car thing, and have good products, and if you order online they are a Forum vendor, and there is a discount code here somewhere

I bought Alpine SPS-517's for my Explorer, and I love them. On Crutchfield they are $99, I got them on sale from my local dealer for $75 a pair. Nothing against Crutchfield, but I like my local shop, so I decided to support them.

As for sound quality, The mids, and highs are fantastic, and the bass is quite good, not great, but what can you expect from a speaker that is not in a tuned box, and is meant for a variety of vehicles.

I just bought 4 pioneer 3-way speakers for $100 with free shipping.

Pioneer 6x8's are really good for the price. You can get 3-ways at walmart for ~$50-60/pair, or 2-ways at Advance Auto Parts - if you buy online, you can use a coupon code to get ~40% off, making them about $30-40/pair. I prefer the 2-ways as they have lower power handling and hence work better with factory systems or when powered with a head unit or small amplifier.

There are lots of 5x7/6x8 options though. Really any brand name speaker will do fine, but if you can, those with a 90-91dB efficiency rating do better with lower power, part of the reason the Pionner's are so good for stock replacements, besides the fit.

Although i have a Kenwood head unit,,,i just bought 2 pairs of Infinity Reference 6832's off Amazon for $108.00...Awesome speaker...Nothing against Crutchfield or Sonic,,have bought from both before ,,but they wanted $102 and $89 a pair...Couldnt beat the deal for an awesomwe set of speakers...I highly recommend them.
