This was my b-day present. They sound really nice coming off a 75Wx2 amp. What do you guys think?

Pioneer A696 (http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&dept=9&WLBS=fs%2Dweb2&sku_id=0665000FS10025244&catid=&newdeptid=9)

Very nice. I really am happy with my pioneers, they are the same as those. Oh, and happy late 20th birthday :)

I AM 18 and up to no good :D

How do you like those speaker covers? It looks really stupid in my car. I'm thinking about getting LX speaker cover covers in the back.

[pimp86LX]

well since my main ride is the buick, i transfer'd my system to that car. I didn't use those covers cause the buick is a bit different, they bolt in from the bottom no the top.

So far my sytem includes:

$179 - Kenwood KDC-217s CD/CD-R/CD-RW
$158 - Audiovox 300w (200rms) <--not underrated, i measured it :D
$120 - Koss 75Wx2
$119 - 12" Sony 1200watt pentagon sub (350rms)
$129 - 220watt pioneer 6x9's

next step is a decent pair 6.5" for the front. For the money, i get excellent sound. I'm going to measure the SPL and SQ to see just how good.

-Peace

Sounds like it is nice. Right now all I've got is a Sony Xplod CD/CD-R/CD-RW deck and new Pioneer speakers (same model as yours except in 6.5")

hey a friend of mine has my jensen 6x9 should I ghet them back asap??
they were like 165 watts is that together or separate??

[Osiris]

Those are excellent mid-level speakers in my opinion Pimp86LX.

bambamky: Jensens are decent entry level speakers. I had some in my 85' Seville with 50watts RMS and was never dissapointed. Dont expect Rockford sound tho.
