Super cheap speakers?

Recommended Posts

I had planned on getting the edi 6500 comps and a nine.2, but I decided at this point I should save up some money for my next car then get whatever I want. In the meantime though my stock speakers are NOT cutting it. They are the cheap stock ones that come with a 98 jeep grand cherokee. Are there any cheap coaxials that I can just run off my h/u but will still sound half decent?

I just saw these powerbass ones on ebay and I'm thinking might be alright. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...5762139690&rd=1 My friend has the comp version of these which he paid 160 for (dumb*ss lol) and they are decent for the price. Any other sub $50 coaxials you can think of that will be a noticeable step up over stock?

If I were you, I'd jump all over those Infinity's.

I'll have to look into those. Do you think that my 16w or so will be enough to at least make them sound decent? I am also consideirng the cdt cl-6x which is a little more. Has anyone heard either of these?

More than likely, yes.

Depends on the mounting depth and mounting style of the stock speakers.

Little modification may be required. I hope those speakers Nick is selling are the same size as your stock ones.

Good stuff. Should sound pretty nice for being a) powered by little power, B) stock location, and c) coaxial speaker :)

2 1/8" (?) mounting depth should fit.

I hope so. I had really planned on getting some awesome comps, but then I started looking at some pics of 5 series and deicided to save up for the car first then get whatever I want. I mean, how could you choose otherwise?

i just spoke with djdilliodon on aim aout the cl-6x speakers and from what hes said they seem pretty nice. He said they would probably have a more natural sound and be less harsh than the infinities which is pretty important to me. Which of the two would you go with? infinity's for 50 shipped or cl-6x for 55 shipped wit warranty?

I agree with you, but on something like spealers I just want to make sure I'm getting something I will really like the sound of.

any chance someone in your area has the speakers you're looking at so you can give them a listen? either a person on the forum or a shop?

I though about that and i am going to try and find a shop on monday that has the infinity's so that i can hear them. I know I wont be able to find the cdt's though. I guess if I like the infinity's ill go with them and if i dont like them ill go with the cdt'. Hopefully I can find them.
