I recently had my windows tinted and I have been rollin around with no backseat in hopes I get some extra cash to replace my stock 6x9s. The time is now, I still have my current sellers/dealers permit enabling me to purchase stereo stuff at cost (we have distributors who sell only to dealers/sellers). But I dont want to spend more than 200$. Here are my choices, mind you this is a leased vehicle, so I most likely will be too lazy to pull out the speakers when I turn the car in, so that is why I dont want to spend too much. (keep in mind these are my prices, at what I can get them for). I only prefer these brands, as I like I have used them in the past and had very good luck with them.
Give me some ideas, if you are using another brand, let me know, also does anybody know if somebody makes a 6x9 component setup with tweeter?

Infinity Reference: 95$
Infinity Kappa: 150$
MB Quart DT169: 90$
Bostons RX97: 130$

 

MB Quart DTC169 are what I am using. I like them. Great Sound.

 

Thanks NJ_CLS_Driver. I am leaning toward the MB Quarts, what are you running in the fronts, I think I will go MB Quart also, Bostons are great, but way too overpriced for the component setups, even at cost, plus they are the hardest for me to get.

If you have MB Quarts up front, were they an easy drop in install, fit perfect? What about that tweeter, does it fit in the window-sill cover nice?

Peace

 

Alpine makes some pretty impressive 6x9 Coax's (SPS-6939S) around that much. To save more $$ don't buy them from an installer, get them online or Ebay. Mine Fn rock.

 

I like the boston rx97's. I put those in my girlfriends cavalier. They are very clear sounding, not too much bass though if thats what your looking for.

 

I am using the MB Quart QM218.61 6.5 Components for my front. Had to have custom spacers made and the steel in the door cut, but they came out great.

 

if you must buy from your store i'd definetly go for the MB quarts. But if can get them elsewhere you can get the kappas for around 115 on ebay. They are very clean. But definetly concentrate on your fronts, cuz that's where it all happens.

 

I stil lhave, but had the Infinity Kappas in my Accord front/back pushed with a Pioneer HU. To be honest, I was not impressed. I listened to some Polks (can't remember model) but was very impressed.

IMO

You'd get better result with an amp/sub combo tho'

 

MB quart or eclipse
