If you are not looking for any quality and something to get you through the time you have your car just go to your local pep boys and get some sony xplods or something.

$39.95 + $18.95 S&H= $58.90 total

I have these in my accord, but removed the tweeter for soundstaging pruposes. I am speechless with Carmina Burana playing on the Audiobahn separates as well.

I purchased them from here:
E-Bay Store...Caraudiodeals.com (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3055450352&category=18799)

Here are the specs, and they ain't bulshitting:
* Pair of 6.5" 3-Way Speakers
* 120W RMS Power Handling
* 240W Max Power Handling
* Frequency Response: 50Hz - 20kHz
* Sensitivity: 94dB
* Chrome Plated Basket
* 18 Oz. Magnet
* Mounting Depth: 2-1/4"
* Audiobahn Window Sticker
* 2003 Model!

* Swivel Tweeters
* Removable Tweeter for Remote Mounting
* Black Carbon Injection Cone
* Butyl Rubber Surround
* 2-Layer Hi-Temp ASV Voice Coil
* 4Ω Operation
* Polyswitch Tweeter Protection Circuit
* Complete w/Grills And Hardware
* Flush & Surface Tweeter Mounts
* Brand New

In this case, you get what you pay for!

Or you can go with some o.k. sounding Lightning audio speakers fro $30 from Wally Martinez.

I agree with Bloodlust, Xplodes are the best when it come to cheap. I have xplode 5.25 3 ways in the front and polk EX 6x9s in the back.

Actually, just go with some fleamarket speakers and you will be fine. A pair of 6.5s for $19 with 450watts max ;), and an unknown name. I don't know...$60 is cheap to me, but then you are only keeping it for a while.

get those el-cheapo $20 deals at wal-mart... i hear they aren't bad at all for $20... if you feel like it, you can get the 6x9s for the same price, and just pull a set of 6x9 pods from another accord

The roadmaster 3-way 6X9's at walmart are only $18 and they can handle the power of a head unit w/o blowing or distorting real bad. Just make sure to put covers on them or the midrange speaker gets all warped from the sun. It happened to mine in a few weeks and then I put them in boxes and they sounded alot better. But then I got sick of them and took them out again. But for $18 you cant ask for much more.

Xplods sound like shit. Get Pioneer. You won't be sorry.
